        by Jette Menger, Moon Notes

        June ist aufgeregt und nervös zugleich: Kian, ihr bester Freund aus der Schulzeit, kehrt nach sieben Jahren aus Australien zurück und zieht zu ihr in die WG. Beide haben sich verändert – Kian ist nicht mehr der pummelige Junge von damals, sondern ein attraktiver Mann mit Muskeln und Tattoos, und June, die einst lebhaft und selbstbewusst war, ist nun schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Trotz der Zeit, die sie getrennt verbracht haben, und der Veränderungen, die sie durchgemacht haben, ist die Anziehung zwischen ihnen sofort spürbar. Doch es ist nicht einfach, dort weiterzumachen, wo sie aufgehört haben. Die Vergangenheit und ihre Geheimnisse werfen lange Schatten auf die Gegenwart, und June findet sich hin- und hergerissen zwischen ihren wachsenden Gefühlen für Kian und der Angst vor den Schatten, die ihre gemeinsame Vergangenheit auf ihre mögliche Zukunft wirft.

Beide müssen lernen, mit ihren veränderten Selbstbildern umzugehen und herausfinden, ob ihre Beziehung stark genug ist, um die Geheimnisse der Vergangenheit zu überwinden. Ihre Reise ist geprägt von Momenten intensiver Nähe und Vertrautheit, aber auch von Missverständnissen und Konflikten, die aus dem mangelnden Mut resultieren, offen miteinander zu kommunizieren.

        Medical Information Sheets in Plain Language

        by Tanja Sappok, Reinhard Burtscher, Anja Grimmer

This large­format book includes materi­als that explain about illnesses, exami­nation and treatment methods in lan­guage that is easy to understand. The materials can help medical, treatment and educational personnel with their everyday work.

        Ukrainian Worlds of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Stories about History

        by Natalya Starchenko

        The vision of the Ukrainian history dominant in the Russian Empire and in the Soviet Union focused exclusively on the heroic Cossacks and disenfranchised peasants. There was no room in it for the local elites: the Ukrainian aristocracy (szlachta) of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. As the result of this biased perspective, Ukrainians to this day know very little about the life of those people. This book invites the readers to take a closer look at the Ukrainian aristocracy. This introduction is done in a somewhat unusual form, through true anecdotes from the life of aristocracy gleaned from court records and other sources from the time. We get glimpses of the elites not only in their best garbs but also in their well-worn home clothes. The book brings together 105 brief chapters that describe how these people saw themselves, how they fought and made peace, how they fell in love and got married, how unwavering they were in the defense of their rights in court. Last not least, these essays explore whether the Ukrainian elites were mere extras and viewers in history or its active makers, resolute and strong in their insistence on defending and expanding their rights and freedoms.

        Hello, Trees

        by Bezuidenhout, Bailey / Lebedeva, Maria

        This is a story about trees and how we may be very much like them. A little girl wanders through a forest and asks questions about the trees she sees. She runs her hands along their trunks... the lines in the bark are so different to her, yet somewhat familiar. Are they like wrinkles in her granny's skin? If that's the case, what do the leaves say? And the roots and the branches and the colour of their flowers? Hello, Trees investigates who we are by taking a closer look at the fascinating lives of trees. We are more than just a body and a name. We are more than just our feelings. Like trees, we are a culmination of many things. Life is a journey of imagination, of nature, and of ourselves. It sparks questions about who we are and what makes us who we are.
