Story
"Sekunden zerhacken, Minuten zerknacken": Pausenlos marschieren die Uhren auf und ab, angetrieben von der Superuhr und ihren Gehilfen. Aber allmählich rumort es im Uhrenland. Die ersten, denen ihre nervige Arbeit "auf den Wecker geht", sind Bobby, der Aufziehwecker, und Elvis, der Radiowecker. Verfolgt von der Superuhr, kommen sie bei der alten Sonnenuhr unter, der Gegenspielerin der Superuhr. Nach und nach entdecken auch die anderen Uhren, dass es Wichtigeres gibt als das ewige Gehetze im Takt der Zeit. Die Superuhr hält aber nicht viel von diesen neuen Ideen.

Story
Urkomisch, tragisch, berührend – ein echter Hendrik Groen. Als sein Chef sich mit großem Bedauern von ihm verabschiedet, steht für Arthur Ophof fest: So kann es nicht weitergehen. Dreiundzwanzig Jahre im Toilettenpapiervertrieb, im Reihenhaus eines Örtchens nahe Amsterdam, in der Ehe mit seiner lieben, sanften, verständnisvollen Frau Afra – damit ist jetzt Schluss. Und so stirbt Arthur. Natürlich nicht wirklich, vielmehr fädelt er ein, was es für ein plausibles Ableben einzufädeln gilt. Aus Arthur Ophof wird Luigi Molima. Nur hat er die Rechnung ohne Afra gemacht.

Schwiegersohn seiner selbst sein? Der cholerische Majoratsherr Childerich von Bartenbruch sieht darin kein Problem. Überzeugt davon, der letzte in der Erbfolge der Merowinger zu sein, setzt der eingebildete Blaublüter aus Mittelfranken alles daran, die gesamte Familie in sich zu vereinen, verheiratet kreuz und adoptiert quer. Und dann ist da noch Professor Horn, der Psychiater des Wüterichs... Mit Sinn für Sprachwitz und ironischen Schmäh nimmt Doderer den Absolutheitsanspruch der Wissenschaften auf die Schippe und frönt seinem Faible für skurrile Figuren.

Story
At the turn of the 20th century, as he composes a treatise on melancholy, Jacov Reinhardt sets off from his small Croatian village in search of his hero and unwitting mentor, Emiliano Gomez Carrasquilla, who is rumored to have disappeared into the South American jungle - "not lost, mind you, but retired." Jacov's narcissistic preoccupation with melancholy consumes him, and as he desperately recounts the myth of his journey to his trusted but ailing scribe, hope for an encounter with the lost philosopher who holds the key to Jacov's obsession seems increasingly unlikely.

Andrej is a postman in complete denial of his existence. He yearns for respect and fame but commits petty crimes for reasons he doesn’t fully comprehend. Josip is an increasingly irrelevant cable car operator and unfaithfully married. Life was so much simpler when neither one knew the other’s secrets. Now that they do - discovered quite by accident - each man has resorted to blackmailing the other. As their anonymous misdeeds escalate, a farce of mutual dependency begins. So does the unlikeliest of friendships when Andrej and Josip finally meet face-to-face.

Botanist Alfred Homer, ever hopeful and constantly surprised, is invited on a road trip by his parents’ friend, Professor Morgan Bruno, who wants company as he tries to unearth the story of the mysterious poet John Skennen. But this is no ordinary road trip. Alfred and the Professor encounter towns where Black residents speak only in sign language and towns that hold indigenous parades; it is a land of house burnings, werewolves, and witches.

Story
Exposing his father’s transgressions in a tell-all was the ethical, righteous--and profitable--thing to do. What’s left but to slink back home for a humbling face-to-face with the man whose secrets he sold? He was a notorious government whistle-blower. Depending on whom you ask, he’s a treasonous felon, a folk hero, a validated patriot, or a national disgrace. To his son, Michael, he’s the father who threw his family into upheaval. Now, having moved back home at the age of thirty-four, Michael is getting to know him as a man.

The grand ship Glory has been skilfully captained for years, but when its well-loved old skipper decides to step down, a new leader thrusts himself forward and a new era begins. The new Captain is vulgar, bumbling and inexplicably confident. With no knowledge of nautical navigation or maritime law - nor even, as he has repeatedly remarked, a particular liking for boats - he solemnly swears to shake things up.

It’s never too late to get back on track. Michael is a broken man. He’s waiting for the 09.46 to Gloucester, so as to reach Crewe for 11.22: the platforms are long at Crewe, and he can walk easily into the path of a high-speed train to London. He’s planned it all: a net of tangerines (for when the refreshments trolley is cancelled), and a juice carton full of neat whisky. To make identification swift, he has taped his last credit card to the inside of his shoe.

A doomed couple argues over the inevitable. A man weeps when he's finally given the structure he's needed. A stilted voicemail over a date that never happened. With a ballast of wit and reality, William Steffey’s second published work takes on the abstraction of love and does away with frivolity—grounding the listener in snapshots of fulfillment, heartbreak, and reverie. He and She sidesteps the conventional tropes and is privy to the crevices where real love hides.

Lo scrittore Guido Battaglia è un inventore di storie, meglio, di barzellette. In crisi dopo la partenza della collega Valeria, talento prezioso per la stesura d’ogni sua opera, vive smarrito in un’imprecisata città su cui imperversa un bacillo sconosciuto, dando intanto corpo a ricordi e fantasmi. In un’atmosfera sospesa, segnata dal passaggio dei camion del genio militare e delle ambulanze, viene incaricato da due irresistibili ragazze di comporre la storia che salvi non solo la propria, ma tutte le città dall’assedio della “peste nuova”.

Former space trucker Jon Simmons, now bona fide U.S.E. Marshal agent Bob3831, has a murder to solve—and on it rests the fate of the universe. The problem is, he has little experience in detective work and, worse still, no leads. The victim, a high-ranking public figure on Cloisteria—a wealthy planet where only the elite can gain residence—has a hole in his head the size of a peach. And if Jon can't solve the crime, the consequences are unthinkable. But time is against him: The people of Cloisteria are lobbying for independence, and if that happens he'll be taken off the case.
