True stories2020Chronicles of one hungerstrike. 4 and a half steps
by Oleh Sentsov
“Chronicles of one hunger strike” is a diary of Oleh Sentsov, the Kremlin prisoner, who had been keeping it since May 2018, the third day after he announced indefinite hunger strike with the demand to free Ukrainian political prisoners. Day by day, throughout 145 days, despite moral pressure and physical exhaustion, Oleh had been frankly and honestly writing in his notebook in small, illegible letters, extremely accurately recording his everyday life in Russian prison, his observations and thoughts. After his release the author miraculously managed to take his notes out of Russia. “4 and a half steps” is a collection of small prose by Oleh Sentsov, written in a Russian prison. What does a man feel, having gotten to prison for the first time? How do prisoners live in tight and dirty cells, behind thick walls and muddy windows with double grid? What rules and laws one should obey, having gotten there? The author tells as objectively and critically as he can about prisoners’ life and circumstances that led them to captivity—he does not justify, nor criticise, but only witnesses. Striking, sometimes horrifying facts with verified accurate details create a convincing background, where events of numerous lives unfold. The author usually does not make any conclusions—he leaves this right to the reader.

Animal breedingFebruary 1997Controlled Reproduction in Farm Animals Series, Volume 4
Controlled Reproduction in Horses, Deer and Camelids
by Ian Gordon
This book is the final one in a set of four providing a series on controlled reproduction in farm animals. The aim of the series is to provide a general review of the literature dealing with the different ways in which reproduction in the major farm mammals can be controlled and manipulated. The four volumes are effectively an expanded and new edition of a previous work, Controlled Breeding in Farm Animals (Pergamon Press, 1983). However, the literature on this subject has expanded so rapidly since the time of the earlier volume, that it is now thought appropriate to publish it in four separate volumes. Buffaloes, goats, deer and camelids have been added to the species covered by the series compared to the previous book. All volumes provide comprehensive reference lists and are fully up-to-date. This final volume focuses on horses, deer and camelids (camels, llamas and alpacas). All of these animals are attracting increasing attention for either leisure pursuits, meat or fibre production. The book will appeal to reproductive physiologists and workers in animal production, animal breeding and veterinary medicine.

The ArtsOctober 20174 saints in 3 acts
A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s
by Patricia Allmer, John Sears
Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

March 2019Was ist ein Apfel?
by Amos Oz, Anne Birkenhauer, Shira Hadad
2014 setzte während der Publikation des Romans Judas eine Zusammenarbeit zwischen Amos Oz und der Lektorin Shira Hadad ein. Daraus entwickelten sich intensive Gespräche (die das neueste Buch des israelischen Autors in überarbeiteter Form druckt), in denen, ohne Tabus und falsche Scham, sein Leben und Schreiben zum Thema wird. Da die Lektorin sich nicht auf eine Rolle als Stichwortgeberin beschränkt, sind Kontroversen nicht ausgeschlossen, zumal die jüngere, weibliche Perspektive auf das Tun und Lassen des weltweit anerkannten Schriftstellers zu produktiven Provokationen führt. Die Rolle des streitbaren öffentlichen Intellektuellen wird in diesen Gesprächen vor dem Hintergrund der privaten Erfahrungen beleuchtet. Wie durchdringen sich beide Sphären? Was führt zur Geburt des Schriftstellers unter neuem Namen angesichts des Selbstmords der Mutter? Wie hat man sich die konkrete Arbeit am Schreibtisch vorzustellen? Welche Veränderungen haben sich im Lauf der Jahrzehnte dabei ergeben? Wie kommt es zu den Stoffen? Kann Fiktion Änderungen auf dem privaten oder öffentlichen Feld hervorrufen? Welche Bedeutung haben erste und letzte Worte bei Romanen? Und so weiter und so fort. In diesen Gesprächen erzählt Amos Oz von seinem Leben, von privaten und politischen Triumphen und Niederlagen, seiner Zeit im Kibbuz, diskutiert über den Feminismus und spricht über Humor und Fanatismus, über Literatur und Tod. Und der Leser erhält Antworten auf die Fragen, die er schon immer an die Literatur und die Beweggründe dieses Autors stellen wollte: Amos Oz für Anfänger und Fortgeschrittene. Ein umfassendes Porträt des berühmten Autors und das Vermächtnis des Friedensaktivisten

Motherland Saga - Volume IV
by Hugo N. Gerstl
Originally, The Motherland Saga ended in 1983, and what came thereafter was a brief epilogue. However, the past thirty-eight years have witnessed unimaginable changes in the fabric of the people, the culture, and the politics of Turkey. The emerging history of this great land compelled the writing of this fourth volume, THE FOOTSTEPS OF FOREVER. While the period from 2005 to 2020 has witnessed a sea change in the fortunes of this tortured nation and what appears to be a complete reversal in Turkey’s international alliances and its worldview, THE FOOTSTEPS OF FOREVER, Volume Four of the saga, concentrates on the period 1983-2005, which set the scene for what occurred thereafter. While it might be helpful to the reader to read LEGACY, EMERGENCE, and COMING OF AGE first, it is not really necessary, for you are traveling on a time train through the Twentieth and into the Twenty-First Century, and if you choose to get on the train in 1897 or today, your ultimate destination will be the same. Perhaps one day there will be a sequel … and another … and another. Published by Pangæa Publishing Group,2019 Volume Four - 328 pages – 23 cm x 15 cm
