        Kahlbutz the Knight

        A Visitor from the Past

        by Dorothea Flechsig

        For decades, the mummy of the knight Christian Friedrich von Kahlbutz has attracted many tourists to the village of Kampehl. After discovering old, hitherto unknown documents about Kahlbutz the Knight, the author has finally been able to put his whole story down in writing. - Strange stories unfold. No rational person would believe what actually happened in the little village of Kampehl, were it not for the fact that the children experienced these things and saw them with their own eyes. Kahlbutz the Knight, who committed a terrible crime over 300 years ago, suddenly comes back to life! - Nils is always being picked on, even though he has never done anything to deserve it. The two bullies Sven and Toni have decided to give him a scare. They steal the mummy of Kahlbutz the Knight from the vault of the village church and tie it to a lamppost on the bridge. They know that Nils will be crossing the bridge that evening. As twilight falls, a storm is brewing and thunder rolls threateningly over the village. Nils does show up, but things do not work out quite the way that Sven and Toni have planned. Knightly adventures ensue, and Nils makes an unusual friend who becomes his protector. As a mummy, Kahlbutz the Knight lay cursed in the vault of Kampehl village church for 313 years and did not decompose. He finally gets a second chance when the boys of the village play their cheeky prank, and wakes up! In order to break the curse, he must do good deeds and atone for his crime. With the help of his new friends, the children of the village, Kahlbutz becomes a real knight, learns the meaning of true friendship, is released from the curse and finally gets to crumble into dust. Packed with excitement and humour, this novel expresses the ideas that it is good to help others, that you should not judge by appearances, and that everyone deserves a second chance. It teaches about knightly virtues and ancient language, and updates a true story. Two worlds collide, yet certain issues seem to be timeless. When it comes to questions of right and wrong, cooperation and respect, the children and the ancient knight put their hearts into finding universal solutions to these age-old problems.

        FLORENCE

        Mistress of Max Gate

        by Peter TAIT

        The Second Mrs Hardy   From the moment she first met Thomas Hardy in 1905, having written him an admiring letter, Florence Dugdale seemed destined for controversy. Her presence at Max Gate, both before and after the death of Hardy’s first wife Emma, and her clandestine courtship with a man nearly forty years her senior sparked suspicion among the locals and scorn from the Gifford family. She had wanted to be a writer herself, but was drawn into Hardy’s life as his ‘secretary’ and companion, and within a year of their own marriage was humiliated by his publication of poems commemorating the late Emma and his painful relationship with her.    Yet in the posthumous biography of her husband that bore her name she would tell the ‘truth’ and at last achieve the acclaim she sought – or so she had imagined, until that fiction too began to unravel. After fourteen years of marriage, and despite her own gifts and her life thereafter, her fate was to be remembered by her obituary tag in a national newspaper – ‘helpmate to genius’. Her love life stunted, her literary ambitions thwarted, disowned by the Stoker family and satirized by Somerset Maugham – Florence’s lot was an unenviable one. Why did she put up with it all?    In his compelling recreation of Florence’s life, Peter Tait tells of a letter, one that Hardy had written to her on the eve of their wedding, which she kept until her death, when, under instructions, it was destroyed … ‘And with it died part of the secret, the secret that helped explain Florence. For, as Thomas found out to his cost, there was more to Florence than was evident from their first meeting. And so began their trail of deceptions, first of Emma, then of their friends and, finally, of us all.’
