September 2019Conga Line on the Amazon
by David Myles Robinson
David Myles Robinson was eight years old when he first got hooked on travel. Since then, he’s seen most of the world—all its continents plus, he laments, “far too many places where travel is now off-limits.”After a lifetime of visiting near and far, in heat and in cold, in comfort and in danger, Robinson has put it all together now in this unique collection of the varied travel adventures he’s found—and the lessons he’s learned from them. A Fellini-esque view of the Amazon, a Mercedes caravan to Istanbul, Jane Goodall's amazing chimps—just part of a travel trunk full of experiences guaranteed to keep you seesawing from “Boy, I'd love to do that" to “Sure glad it was him, not me.”In Conga Line on the Amazon, Robinson brings to his first travel book the same gift for intriguing narrative and sharp characterization that has won praise for his six highly successful novels. Some of his tales may be for the strong of heart, but they’re all for the reader with a yen to be entertained by one intrepid man’s adventures and misadventures exploring the strange and wonderful world we live in.

March 2015Hermann Hesse, ›Narziß und Goldmund‹
Eine Dokumentation zur Entstehungs- und Wirkungsgeschichte
by Hermann Hesse, Volker Michels
»Narziß und Goldmund« war zu Lebzeiten Hermann Hesses sein erfolgreichstes Buch. Dass es nichts von seiner Zugkraft eingebüßt hat, belegen die Übersetzungen in über 30 Sprachen und die auf drei Millionen Exemplare angestiegene Verbreitung der deutschen Ausgaben. Dieser im Mittelalter der Spätgotik spielende Roman, der für Hesse das »Ergebnis einer Auseinandersetzung mit 2000 Jahren Christentum und 1000 Jahren deutscher Geschichte« war, zeigt am Beispiel der Lebensgier des Abenteurers und Künstlers Goldmund und seines asketischen Freundes Narziß die Polarität zwischen Sinnlichkeit und Geist, Phantasie und Verstand und ihre Verbindung in der Kunst. Inwieweit dieses 1930 erschienene Buch zugleich ein Kontrastprogramm zur nationalsozialistischen Verfälschung der deutschen Vergangenheit war, illustriert die hier erstmals vorgelegte Dokumentation seiner Entstehungsgeschichte in Hesses Briefen und Selbstzeugnissen. Sie überliefert neben den Quellenstudien des Verfassers auch seine Absicht, »der Idee von Deutschland und deutschem Wesen, die ich seit der Kindheit in mir hatte«, darzustellen und ihr seine Liebe zu gestehen, »gerade weil ich alles, was heute spezifisch ›deutsch‹ ist, so sehr hasse«, wie er 1933 in einem seiner Briefe bekannte.

December 2018Tropical Doubts
by David Myles Robinson
Some Honolulu lawyers called Pancho McMartin the best criminal defense attorney in the islands. He'd admit to being pretty damn good. But he was on a losing streak now―three guilty verdicts in a row―and his confidence was sinking fast. When one of his oldest friends, Giselle, was left comatose after surgery and her husband, Manny, pleaded with him to sue the doctors involved, Pancho couldn't find a way to avoid a new specialty: medical malpractice.But it wasn't long before the sudden death of one of the defendants―and a murder charge accusing Manny of being the killer―had Pancho back in the old familiar arena of fighting for his client's life, while at the same time seeking justice for the O.R. errors that had left Giselle in a permanent vegetative state.In Tropical Doubts, the third legal thriller from David Myles Robinson featuring colorful, fast-thinking Pancho McMartin, medical hijinks merge with murder as surprise twists build in this unpredictable courtroom drama.

Magie der Farben
Aquarelle aus dem Tessin
by Hermann Hesse, Hermann Hesse, Volker Michels, Volker Michels
Im Alter von vierzig Jahren, mitten im Ersten Weltkrieg, hat Hermann Hesse zu malen begonnen. Es war ihm ein »Ausweg, um auch in bittersten Zeiten das Leben ertragen zu können« und um Distanz von der Literatur zu gewinnen. »Ich habe mein Malstühlchen in der Hand«, schreibt er 1920, »das ist mein Zauberapparat und Faustmantel, mit dessen Hilfe ich schon tausendmal Magie getrieben und den Kampf mit der blöden Wirklichkeit gewonnen habe.«

Farbe ist Leben
Eine Auswahl seiner schönsten Aquarelle
by Hermann Hesse, Volker Michels, Hermann Hesse, Volker Michels
Seit seinen autodidaktischen Anfängen im Ersten Weltkrieg, die dem damals Vierzigjährigen eine schwere Krise zu überwinden halfen, hat Hesse bis ins hohe Alter etwa zweitausend Aquarelle gemalt. Die meisten von ihnen sind Liebeserklärungen an die farbenfrohen Landschaften seiner Tessiner Wahlheimat und ihren damals noch unerschöpflichen Reichtum an zauberhaften Motiven.
