        Institutions and urban change since 1850

        by Janet Wolff, Mike Savage

        This book brings together studies of cultural institutions in Manchester from 1850 to the present day, giving an unprecedented account of the city's cultural evolution.

This book will appeal to everyone interested in the cultural life of the city of Manchester, including cultural historians, sociologists and urban geographers, as well as general readers with interests in the city. It is written by leading international authorities, including Viv Gardner, Stephen Milner, Mike Savage, Bill Williams and Janet Wolff.

        Abbey Road Murder Song

        Roman

        by William Shaw, Conny Lösch

        Swinging London – die Stadt ist ein einziges Beatles-Album: bunt, laut und fröhlich. Miniröcke beherrschen die Bürgersteige, Mini Cooper die Straßen. Die ganze Welt scheint nur noch aus Musik und Mode zu bestehen. Doch der Spaß ist nicht endlos: Unweit des Abbey Road Studios wird die Leiche einer jungen Frau gefunden. Auf der Suche nach ihrem Mörder lernen Detective Breen und seine Kollegin Tozer Londons düstere Kehrseite kennen. London, Oktober 1968: Die Jungen, Wilden und Schönen haben die Macht ergriffen. Sie haben ihre eigenen Fernsehprogramme und Radiosender, ihre Boutiquen und eine eigene Sprache. Die Röcke werden kürzer, die Hosen enger. Im Abbey Road Studio entstehen die wahrscheinlich wichtigsten Alben aller Zeiten. Und vor dem Studio warten Hunderte junge Frauen darauf, dass SIE erscheinen: die Beatles. Doch nur eine Straßenecke weiter zeigt sich ein anderes London. Die anonyme Leiche einer jungen Frau wird entdeckt. Der einzige Anhaltspunkt, den Detective Cathal Breen und seine Kollegin Helen Tozer haben: Sie muss ein Beatles-Fan gewesen sein. Ihre Ermittlungen führen die beiden vom Fan-Club der Fab Four zu einer Gerichtsverhandlung gegen John Lennon und zu George Harrisons Haus. Aber der wahre Grund, wieso das Mädchen sterben musste, ist viel tragischer, als sie es sich hätten träumen lassen.
