Children's & YAA Kiss to My Mum
by Huang Beijia
A Kiss to My Mum is a novel that delves into the growth of a child from a single-parent family. The hero is a ten-year-old boy called Zhao Andi. He is Zhao Andi to his teacher, My Dear An to his father and Didi to his mother. At his father’s funeral, for the first time he sees his mother Shu Yimei, so beautiful as if she stepped down from a photo. At this gloomy moment Didi was pushed to an arduous cliff, on the other side of which is his mother Shu Yimei, blowing the scent of orange. The novel develops around the gradual emotional thaw of the boy and his mother. At first they cannot get along with and are watchful of each other. But distance gradually gives way to proximity and then to mutual understanding and harmony between the two on their way to the future. This is a story of a boy and his parents, singing high praise for children. It is also about our life, our minds and love. All the characters in the novel are very much realistic, including the boy of slight autism and the mother of slight depression. The atmosphere of modern life in the novel is achieved through the depiction of other characters such as the hero’s classmate and good friend Zhang Xiaochen, his sister Ke’er, his uncle Baolin and his English teacher Li Qinsong, a man of dubious identity, thus adding to the enjoyment of the book.

October 2022Katja chinesisch
Eine fremde Erzählung
by Dmitri Prigow, Christiane Körner
Katja wächst als Tochter russisch-britischer Emigranten in Tientsin in China auf. Es sind die 1940er Jahre und später, die Spuren von Krieg und Gewalt überall spürbar. Als junges Mädchen wird sie die Entscheidung treffen, fortan in der Sowjetunion zu leben, und reist mit dem Zug nach Taschkent. Während draußen Schnee und Landschaft vorbeiziehen, wallen in ihr die Erinnerungen an das privilegierte Leben in der ausländischen Konzession auf, an die Wunder und Wunderlichkeiten, die Drachen, Stoffe, Texturen, an das oft rätselhafte Verhalten der Erwachsenen, deren Leben von der Geschichte durchgewirbelt wurde. Und dann ist da noch der Erzähler, der die sanften, auch absonderlichen Bilder jener russischen Kindheit in China immer wieder mit der eigenen im trüben sowjetischen Plattenbau verschaltet, als die Moskauer »Patriarchenteiche« gerade zu »Pionierteichen« geworden waren. In seinem letzten Roman erforscht Dmitri Prigow den fremden Kontinent einer Kindheit und birgt die kindliche Wahrnehmung, Welterfahrung, in wunderbar zarte poetische Bilder.

The ArtsJanuary 2019The secret life of romantic comedy
by Celestino Deleyto
The secret life of romantic comedy offers a new approach to one of the most popular and resilient genres in the history of Hollywood. Steering away from the rigidity and ideological determinism of traditional accounts of the genre, this book advocates a more flexible theory, which allows the student to explore the presence of the genre in unexpected places, extending the concept to encompass films that are not usually considered romantic comedies. Combining theory with detailed analyses of a selection of films, including To Be or Not to Be (1942), Rear Window (1954), Kiss Me Stupid (1964), Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989) and Before Sunset (2004), the book aims to provide a practical framework for the exploration of a key area of contemporary experience - intimate matters - through one of its most powerful filmic representations: the genre of romantic comedy. Original and entertaining, The secret life of romantic comedy is perfect for students and academics of film and film genre.

Folk & traditional musicApril 2005The Kiss in history
by Edited by Karen Harvey
Writers have previously placed the action of kissing into categories: kisses of love, affection, peace, respect and friendship. Each of the essays in this fascinating book take a single kind of kiss and uses it as an index to the past. For rather than offering a simple history of the kiss, this book is about the kiss in history. In this collection, an eminent group of cultural historians have explored this subject using an exceptionally wide range of evidence. They explore the kiss through sources as diverse as canonical religious texts, popular prints, court depositions, periodicals, diaries and poetry. In casting the net so wide, these authors demonstrate how cultural history has been shaped by a broad concept of culture, encompassing more than simply the canons of art and literature, and integrating apparently 'historical' and 'non-historical' sources. Furthermore, this collections shows that by analyzing the kiss and its position - embedded as it is as part of our culture - history can use small gestures to take us to big issues concerning ourselves and others, the past and the present. With an afterword by Sir Keith Thomas, this book will be fascinating reading for cultural historians working on a wide range of different societies and periods.
