Ein Doppelgänger.
by Theodor Storm, Julie Völk
Norddeutschland, um 1850: John Hansen ist – mehr aus Leichtsinn als aus krimineller Neigung – straffällig geworden und versucht wieder im »normalen« Leben Fuß zu fassen. Er lernt das Mädchen Hanna kennen, sie heiraten, bekommen eine Tochter, Christine, und bewohnen eine Kate am Rande des Dorfes. Doch er wird das Stigma des Zuchthäuslers nicht los, die Leute im Ort nennen ihn John »Glückstadt« nach dem Namen der Haftanstalt, in der er einsaß. John findet immer seltener Arbeit und bei einem Streit mit seiner Frau zerbricht auch sein häusliches Glück. Storms dramatische Meisternovelle hat Julie Völk mit feinem Strich kongenial illustriert. »Nachdem dieser John seine Strafe von Rechtes wegen abgebüßt hatte, wurde er, wie gebräuchlich, der lieben Mitwelt zur Hetzjagd überlassen.«

A Vision of Battlements
by Anthony Burgess
by Andrew Biswell, Paul Wake
A Vision of Battlements is the first novel by the writer and composer Anthony Burgess, who was born in Manchester in 1917. Set in Gibraltar during the Second World War, the book follows the fortunes of Richard Ennis, an army sergeant and incipient composer who dreams of composing great music and building a new cultural world after the end of the war. Following the example of his literary hero, James Joyce, Burgess takes the structure of his book from Virgil's Aeneid. The result is, like Joyce's Ulysses, a comic rewriting of a classical epic, whose critique of the Army and the postwar settlement is sharp and assured. The Irwell Edition is the first publication of Burgess's forgotten masterpiece since 1965. This new edition includes an introduction and notes by Andrew Biswell, author of a prize-winning biography of Anthony Burgess.
