        Suis-je, moi, le gardien de mon frère?

        by Daniel Gelleri

        Suis-je, moi, le gardien de mon frère? – Roman par Daniel Gelleri La guerre civile en Israël ! Bien que cela paraisse impossible, ce titre fait la une dans les médias du monde entier. Est-ce que la plus grande expérience de la démocratie a finalement échoué ? Tandis que le monde arabe triomphe, les Etats-Unis – la seule superpuissance encore survivante – sont confrontés par un effroi considérable. Sur le champ de la politique internationale, ont-ils parié sur le mauvais cheval? Cent dix ans après la naissance à Cracovie, en Pologne, de Yitzhak Isaac Isserlish, le descendant d’une lignée de rabbins d’Europe de l’Est de premier plan, ses arrière petits fils sont en guerre l’un contre l’autre dans les collines de Jérusalem – une guerre qui pourrait réellement prouver au monde que l’heure d’Armageddon a sonné! Dans une saga transgénérationnelle finement tramée, Daniel Gelleri, l’auteur du roman populaire Iris, retrace la vie de cinq générations d’une famille juive israélienne dont les membres n’ont pas seulement hérité de leurs ancêtres le temps, l’espace, les espoirs et les rêves, mais en sont profondément affectés dans les cauchemars et les terreurs de leurs propres vies. A la suite de la décision du gouvernement de faire revenir Israël à ses frontières d’avant 1967, la controverse idéologique déchire le tissues fragile de ce que le monde avait toujours considéré comme une lueur d’espoir, un havre d’unité dans un océan de discorde. Ce que l’on chuchotait auparavant entre quatre murs explose désormais dans les rues de chaque bourgade et ville importante. Chaque parti reste inflexible dans sa vision de la forme finale que doit prendre le pays. Chaque parti, aussi, a l’intention de réaliser l’objectif désiré. La plus grande crainte devient une réalité : LA GUERRE CIVILE ! Les citoyens d’Israël se confrontent l’un l’autre, frère contre frère. Chacun aime son pays, ils ont tous à cœur ses meilleurs intérêts, et tous ont peur pour sa sécurité; mais d’une manière paradoxale et tragique, chacun trouve la vision de ses opposants être une abomination. Dans une nation minuscule qui a su affronter l’ennemi sans peur durant soixante-quinze ans, l’impossible arrive: l’ennemi est à l’intérieur. L’ennemi n’est pas aux frontières; l’ennemi est à l’intérieur des frontières! Chaque parti combat pour sa propre justice, pour sa propre foi, pour sa propre vérité, et pour sa propre vision d’un Israël biblique libéré. Daniel Gelleri, un officier supérieur de réserve des Forces de Défense d’Israël (IDF), était autrefois un juif non pratiquant, qui est devenu orthodoxe à l’âge de 25 ans. Il vécut avec sa famille dans la colonie de Cisjordanie de Bat-Ayin pendant dix ans. Quand le Premier Ministre d’Israël Yitzhak Rabin a été assassiné par un extrémiste juif, Gelleri se mit à refaire l’examen de sa foi et de ses convictions. Après une période d’examen de conscience, il revint à son style de vie non religieux d’origine et abandonna le monde religieux dans lequel il vivait. On premier roman, Iris, a été reçu avec beaucoup de succès.

        My Brother

        by Tang Sulan, Li Xianhong

        I was so keen to have a baby brother. However, when my brother was born, he didn't seem to like me.

Since then, my whole family has been running around for my brother's recovery...

        A tale about two brothers and a sister

        by Dara Kornii

        The World was beautiful and happy then. There was no hatred, malice, or envy. The earth gave birth generously, the sun shone gently, the sky poured with a bountiful rain, and children grew in harmony with nature. The Creator admired his beloved creation. Two brothers, Morok and Zhytnyk, and the youngest sister Veselka grew up in one glorious family. They were beautiful children, generously gifted with talents. Everything changed when one of the brothers wanted to feel like God and shed the first innocent blood. And the other brother did not stop him. Evil, envy, hatred, and temptation entered the World. The Creator knew in advance how everything would end for this World and decided to destroy people. But not everything is so simple, because this is a fairy tale. Who or what saved people from death? Why is it so important to value other people's lives, love the land you walk on, and reject temptations, even if they promise you omnipotence?

        Kaspar Hauser’s Brothers and Sisters. In search of the wild man

        by P. J. Blumenthal

        What makes human beings human? Is it a life in society that makes us what we are? We often hear stories of persons who have survived in the wild without social contact or who were supposedly raised by wild animals. Kaspar Hauser is probably the most well-known example, but certainly not the only one. P. J. Blumenthal has taken up the hunt for the “wild man” Homo ferus on the boundary between man and animal.

        A Harvest Truce

        by Serhiy Zhadan

        Brothers Anton and Tolik reunite at their family home to bury their recently deceased mother. An otherwise natural ritual unfolds under extraordinary circumstances: their house is on the front line of a war ignited by Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine. Isolated without power or running water, the brothers’ best hope for success and survival lies in the declared cease-fire - the harvest truce. But such hopes are swiftly dashed, as it becomes apparent that the conflagration of war will not abate. Serhiy Zhadan’s A Harvest Truce stages a tragicomedy in which the commonplace experiences of death, birth, and the cycles of life marked by the practices of growing and harvesting food are rendered futile and farcical in the wake of the indifferent juggernaut of war.

        Heart of Mist

        by Katrin Lange

        A girl torn between two brothers. Regardless of which one she falls in love with it will be disastrous for the other. Christopher and Adrian have sworn that no girl will ever come between them again, because there is a sleeping monster inside Adrian, just waiting to hurt his brother. But then Jessa comes to High Moor Grange… Jessa would do anything to find her sister Alice, who has been registered as missing for five years. High Moor Grange is the first clue she has been given after all this time – but apart from a ruin shrouded in mist, all she finds there are the owners of this dilapidated manor house. Jessa suspects that they both know more about Alice’s disappearance than they admit. Christopher wants nothing more than to be rid of her, and constantly gets on her nerves with his arrogance – and even his warm-hearted brother Adrian seems to be harbouring some secrets. Jessica knows that she ought to stay away from the twin brothers, because instead of finding answers at High Moor Grange, she finds herself in danger of losing her heart in a battle against a 200-year-old curse. Dark, irresistible and deeply romantic – a modern Beauty and the Beast story by the queen of emotions!

        Die Politisierung der Weltpolitik

        Umkämpfte internationale Institutionen

        by Michael Zürn, Matthias Ecker-Ehrhardt

        Die Analysen und Hypothesen dieses Buches macht die Politisierung der internationalen Institutionen – insbesondere der EU – erfaßbar und verständlich. Seit dem Zusammenbruch der US-amerikanischen Großbank Lehmann Brothers im September 2008 – dem Beginn der Finanzkrise – erleben wir eine umfassende Politisierung der internationalen Finanzpolitik und der sie tragenden politischen Institutionen. Dies gilt vor allem für die europäischen Einrichtungen – und mithin auch auf die EU als Ganzes. Als Resultat wird das politische Europa – und zwar sowohl die europäischen Institutionen als auch die Funktionsweise der Mitgliedsstaaten – ein anderes sein als zuvor: Die Politisierung europäischer Institutionen macht das Geschäft für die politisch Handelnden in vielerlei Hinsicht schwieriger; sie ist aber auch eine große Chance, Europa das politische und legitimatorische Fundament zu gebe, das es benötigt.

        All Fools

        By George Chapman

        by Charles Edelman, David Bevington

        Of all the poets Francis Meres names in his famous Palladis Tamia, Wits Treasury (1598), just two rate a mention as being both 'our best for tragedy' and 'the best poets for comedy': William Shakespeare and George Chapman. All Fools, written in 1599, is the only Elizabethan comedy based directly on the plays of Terence. By taking episodes and characters from two brilliant works, The Self-Tormenter and The Brothers, Chapman creates something that is distinctly Elizabethan while remaining faithful to the spirit of the great Roman master. In this edition, an extensive introduction and commentary show how Chapman combines the literary and theatrical traditions of ancient Rome with everyday life in his own time to fashion a sparkling and innovative comedy that will delight audiences today as much as it did those of 1599.
