May 2020Unter Markenmenschen
by Birgit Rabisch
China 2018 - birth of the first genetically modified humans. A world of "trademark people" from the genetic design laboratory is getting closer and closer. In such a world, young Simone, a naturally born "No name", writes a diary in which a society dominated by body cult, trademark fetishism and obsession with perfection is revealed. Sexuality is organized as a pragmatic elimination of urges, children are made in laboratories to fit the market - and what about love? When a genetically unoptimized child starts to grow inside of her, Simone, the despised outsider, finds herself trapped in a serious conflict.

July 2020Alles
by Moritz Hildt
A small café at the Baltic Sea. An island that is not actually an island, but on which Lukas Seeger is more than satisfied with his quiet, uniform life. When his wife's first husband, who was thought to be dead, appears in the café out of the blue, events take their course, forcing Lukas to embark on a journey, first into the swamps of the deep south of the USA and then into the wilderness of the red desert of Utah. Following his atmospheric debut "Nach der Parade", Hildt tells a story that is as captivating as it is shocking, about how well you can know the people you are closest to - and what degree of truth is necessary, which is good, and which is dangerous.

March 2020Schatten über den Brettern
by David Misch
A theater actor in times of increasing repression. He is torn between social demands and the pursuit of self-realization. His characters and roles, which he doesn't have to play because they've become real inside of him, mean everything to him. A cultural ordinance threatens to take them away from him and the struggle against the new authority in the country calls into question his relationships and his own identity more than ever. In his first novel, David Misch conjures up an abysmally evil power that emerges from the middle of a society in which reflections and admonishing memories are fading. A concrete dystopia: warning.

October 2020Gesang vor Türen
by Bernd Lüttgerding
Hope and fear. There is hardly anything to which we react more suspiciously than to change. Yet Stefan Schliefenbeck actually has got nothing to lose. He just has to talk to her, the pretty cashier in the organic food shop. If it weren't for his hopes and fears: instead of finally plucking up courage, he flees into staggering imaginations of what might happen, and thus repeatedly shifts the plot to his inner self.Be it a parable about freedom or a homage to the pitfalls of everyday life: "Gesang vor Türen" is a one-man love story that never takes place - original, multi-layered, almost universal.As in his poetry, Bernd Lüttgerding achieves the almost impossible in his debut novel: an alliance of lightness and depth.
