World War II rises in its vastness and complexity over the rest of human history.

This diary of the Second World War has been able to cover all facets of the conflict, and it is a fundamentally empirical work that narrates events as they occurred.

Story
When the state of Colorado ordered its residents to shelter in place in response to the spread of coronavirus, writers Pam Houston and Amy Irvine — who had never met — began a correspondence based on their shared devotion to the rugged, windswept mountains that surround their homes, one on each side of the Continental Divide. As the numbers of infected and dead rose and the nation split dangerously over the crisis, Houston and Irvine found their letters to one another as necessary as breath.

Story
Die Art wie hier zwei Große miteinander umgingen - offen, herzlich, klug und nicht kritiklos - demonstriert unübersehbar: Goethe und Schiller vermochten ihr Humanitäts-Ideal nicht nur poetisch darzustellen, sondern auch zu leben. Am 13. September 1795 begann Schiller seinen Brief an Goethe folgendermaßen: "Nur ein kleines Lebenszeichen. Ich kann mich gar nicht daran gewöhnen, Ihnen acht Tage nichts zu sagen und nichts von Ihnen zu hören."

Story
In The Love That Dares, queer love speaks its name through the words of lovers from years gone by. Alongside the more famous names coexist beautifully written letters by lesser-known lovers, giving us an insight into queer love outside of the spotlight of fame or fortune. These letters give us a glimpse into the passion and courage it took to continue a gay relationship in times when it was at best improper and at worst illegal. Enlightening introductions to each set of letters give readers an idea of the historical context in which they were written.

Story
Verdad, progreso, tiempo, identidad, política, realidad, conciencia, bondad.... Son palabras que, en su esencia, nos pertenecen a todos y nos unen por encima de cualquier diferencia. Pero estamos asistiendo a una transformación dirigida de sus significados para conseguir que definan realidades mucho más parciales e interesadas, mucho menos universales. Luis García Montero las recupera aquí, las alisa, les devuelve su sentido original y las rehabilita en su valor integral.

Story
Parmi les plus belles lettres de la littérature mondiale, écrites par celle que Virginie Woolf nommait "le seul auteur que j'envie". Au fil des années, de 1913 à 1921, et de ses correspondants, Katherine Mansfield nous fait suivre son douloureux combat contre la tuberculose, en même temps que sa lutte contre la page blanche. Sa vie et son œuvre étaient étroitement liées. Elle écrivait avec sa vie, son sang, ses souffrances - et aussi avec cette gaieté qui s'emparait d'elle devant un ciel clair, un arbre en fleur, un enfant qui rit.

Story
Für Rainer Maria Rilke war Weihnachten schon immer das wichtigste Fest des Jahres, das er oft in selbstgewählter Stille und mit dem Schreiben liebevoller Briefe verbrachte. Am 24. Dezember stellte sie sich ein, die "unvergleichliche Erwartung", die für ihn mit Heiligabend verbunden war. Eindringlich und nahbar beschreibt er in seinen Briefen an Familie und Freunde wie Anton Kippenberg, Lou Andreas-Salomé oder Franz Xaver Kappus, was ihm das "liebe alte Fest" bedeutet.

Story
1842 brach der junge und schon gefeierte Autor Charles Dickens zu einer Lesereise nach Amerika und Kanada auf - von Boston bis St. Louis, von Richmond bis Quebec, mit Bahn oder Schiff. Zunächst stellte er sich ein Amerika vor, in dem eine tolerante und demokratische Zukunftsgesellschaft entstehen würde, ohne den Dünkel der englischen Aristokratie. Umso enttäuschter war er über den amerikanischen Kapitalismus und vor allem über die Sklaverei. Seine Kritik an Land und Leuten formulierte er unmittelbar und nicht ohne Ironie in seinen "Aufzeichnungen aus Amerika", gelesen von Christian Brückner.

Über seine Mutter Gertrud schrieb der Künstler Einar Schleef einen Roman. Er nannte ihn "Gertrud" und versuchte darin, ihre ostdeutsche Gedankenwelt nachzuempfinden, von der er seit seiner Flucht in den Westen getrennt war. Mit ihr schrieb er sich auch Briefe. Die Angst der Mutter, die Unbedenklichkeit des Sohnes, die Anhänglichkeit und die Unabhängigkeit - es sind Kräfte, die sich anziehen und gleichzeitig abstoßen.

Before Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, and Doonesbury, there was Art Buchwald. For more than fifty years, from 1949 to 2006, Art Buchwald’s Pulitzer Prize-winning column of political satire and biting wit made him one of the most widely read American humorists and a popular player in the Washington world of Ethel and Ted Kennedy, Ben Bradlee, and Katharine Graham. Dean Acheson, former U.S. Secretary of State, called Buchwald the “greatest satirist in the English language since Pope and Swift.”

Essayist. Preservationist. Mountain man. Inventor. John Muir may be California’s best-known icon. A literary naturalist and founder of the Sierra Club and Yosemite National Park, Muir left his legacy on the landscape and on paper. But the celebrity of John Muir does not tell the whole story. In Essential Muir, for the first time, Muir's selected writings include those that show his ecological vision without ignoring his racism, providing a more complete portrait of the man.
