Bach Doctor Press
Darin Dance started his own publishing and photography business in 2014: The Bach Doctor Press after researching and taking photographs for many book projects while working collaboratively with fellow Ngāi Tahu writers. He firmly believes that with the retrenchment of the main publishing houses back to Australia, America and Europe, our remarkable “Kiwi” voices and stories will be lost and unheard unless new publishing ventures are prepared to fill this void. This has become his mission to promote our unique kōrero and pakiwaitara (stories and legends).

Children's & YADecember 2019The Middle
by Richa Jha and Eva Sanchez Gomez
The Middle is a story of a journey within a journey. A voracious reader, Azma, whose mind is full of questions as she reads, finds that the more books she consumes, the more the whys and hows in them consume her. One night, a torn scrap of paper floats into her room, carrying an incomplete line within its crinkles. She desperately searches for any missing words to complete the lonely phrase but failing at each attempt, she finally turns to writing her own beginning and end. The pages of The Middle are filled with surreal creatures - formidable, terrifying, looming – and these represent the fears and doubts of a mind struggling to make sense of the worlds captured within those books that only partially satisfy her as a reader. Azma embarks on an incomplete journey, ready to create its origin and end, finally realising the answers to all her impossible questions can only come to her when she writes her own version of the story. It is only then that the haunting creatures begin to soften and harmlessly melt away into themselves. Richa Jha’s lyrical prose and Eva Sanchez Gomez’s breathtaking visual poetry come together to narrate a tale that is both stunning and thought-provoking. For all the restless creative souls out there, The Middle presents an all-familiar trajectory of creating something new.

Children's & YAAugust 2020Cryptos
by Poznanski, Ursula
Where do we go when Nowhere is the only destination left? Kerrybrook is Jana‘s favourite virtual escape. An idyllic fishing village with beautiful nature and, every now and then, a breeze of fresh air from the nearby sea. Jana, is this world‘s designer and person in power, she’s satisfied with her masterpiece. Best job so far. Until one day, a dead body is found, in both, ’Virtual Reality‘ and the real world. In times of climate change, VR is the only safe place for humankind. That‘s why Jana needs to solve the crime, she’s responsible for stopping the destruction. • CliFi Thriller (Climate Fiction): Climate change & virtual reality • For fans of Black Mirror (Netflix) • All age readers • Strong, female protagonist • Highly relevant topic WHITE RAVENS recommendation (2021): "In the not too distant future, the world is an inhospitable place: droughts, storms, floods. That’s why world designers construct »alternative realities«, such as landscapes populated by dinosaurs, life at court in the Middle Ages, and surfing and chilling out on a beach. People can switch between these worlds at will and, when they die there, they are not truly dead; instead, they merely return to the »real world« – same as at night when they sleep. Then they are reunited with their body, which is lying inside a capsule. In »Cryptos«, Ursula Poznanski pulls out all the stops of storytelling: She embeds numerous references to human and intellectual history in an action-packed and extremely suspenseful thriller plot. In the process, she raises central existential and ontological questions that result from the interplay between the real and the virtual worlds. This complex dystopian novel is narrated in such an enjoyable way that readers will hardly notice their brains going into overdrive as they devour it."

August 2017Aquila
by Poznanski, Ursula
"LAST CHANCE." Nika looks in the mirror one Sunday morning, feeling rather hungover, to see this message daubed on the glass. Who wrote it? And what does it mean? Where are Nika’s house keys and her phone? Where’s Jenny, her flatmate? And why does she feel so terrible this morning – surely she didn’t have that much to drink last night? It’s only when she turns on the TV and sees the morning news that Nika realises it’s not Sunday at all – it’s Tuesday. Two whole days have gone by, and she has no memory of them. During those two days something terrible must have happened. But what?With Aquila, Ursula Poznanski has produced a true psychological thriller. She tells the story almost entirely in reverse, keeping the reader on tenterhooks until the very last page. Not until the shocking twist at the end of the book do we find out what really happened to Nika during those two lost days.

Gedichte, Lichter, Lesezeichen
by Ursula Krechel
Längst gehören die Gedichte von Ursula Krechel zum Kanon deutschsprachiger Lyrik; »Nach Mainz!« (1977), »Verwundbar wie in den besten Zeiten« (1979) und »Vom Feuer lernen« (1985), fast das ganze Gedichtwerk der 70er und 80er Jahre, ist seit längerer Zeit vergriffen. Ausgewählt, geringfügig überarbeitet und mit manchen klugen Ausdeutungen und ›Lesezeichen‹ versehen, wird die Lyrik von Ursula Krechel nun wieder neu vorgestellt: »Ungezürnt«. Ob in der Lyrik, in ihrem erzählerischen oder essayistisch-kritischen Werk, Ursula Krechels Literatur »pocht auf Zeitgenossenschaft«. So schrieb auch Friederike Mayröcker beglückwünschend: »Das ist eine poetische Sprache des 21. Jahrhunderts, verzeihen Sie, daß ich so enthusiastisch reagiere...«

Mit dem Körper des Vaters spielen
Essays
by Ursula Krechel
Selten ereignet es sich, daß Texte von Autorinnen oder Autoren, aus ganz unterschiedlichen Anlässen geschrieben, sich zu einem geschlossenen thematischen Zusammenhang fügen. Zu diesen seltenen Ausnahmen sind die hier vorgelegten zehn Essays von Ursula Krechel aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt zu rechnen. In den Versuchen über ganz unterschiedliche Autoren wie Rahel Varnhagen, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Cesare Pavese, Elisabeth Langgässer, Lena Christ, Sylvia Plath u. a. umreißt Ursula Krechel das Feld, das sich zwischen den literarischen Texten, der Geschlechtsidentität seines Verfassers oder seiner Verfasserin und der Rückbindung an die Beziehungsmuster, die durch das gegengeschlechtliche Elternmuster geprägt sind, ergibt und das literarische Werk bis in die letzten Elemente seiner Struktur prägt. Nicht um eine biographische Reduktion des Literarischen geht es ihr, sondern um das Spiel der frühesten kreativen Lernprozesse, als das sich der Texte in seiner Ästhetik und seiner sprachlichen Gestaltung erweist.
