Ana Mendieta

Im ersten Teil, Pasenow oder die Romantik, geraten unter dem Einfluss des
Kaufmanns Eduard von Bertrand die religi&ouml;sen &Uuml;berzeugungen und das patriotische
Pflichtgef&uuml;hl des Gutsbesitzersohns Joachim von Pasenow ins Wanken. Dennoch
entzieht er sich der ungl&uuml;cklichen Aff&auml;re mit dem Animierm&auml;dchen Ruzena,
um in der Ehe mit der zum Tugendideal verkl&auml;rten Elisabeth von Baddensen
einen den starren gesellschaftlichen Konventionen entsprechenden Ersatz
f&uuml;r die metaphysische Leere seiner Existenz zu finden. Der entlassene Buchhalter
August Esch, Vertreter des kleinb&uuml;rgerlich-proletarischen Milieus, begegnet
seiner als willk&uuml;rlich erlebten Umwelt im zweiten Teil, Esch oder die Anarchie,
mit zunehmendem Realit&auml;tsverlust. Eine >>anarchische>falschen<< Idealismus. Gegen Ende
des Ersten Weltkriegs gelangt der gelernte Kaufmann Wilhelm Huguenau, Hauptfigur
des dritten Teils, Huguenau oder die Sachlichkeit, durch Betrug und mit
Hilfe des Stadtkommandanten Joachim von Pasenow in den Besitz der Druckerei
des ermordeten August Esch. Die Geschichte des Opportunisten ist um die
Parallelerz&auml;hlungen des Leutnants Jaretzki, des Maurers G&ouml;dicke und der
Hanna Wendling erg&auml;nzt, die f&uuml;r Vereinsamung und k&ouml;rperliche wie geistige
Versehrtheit stehen. Der vom Intellektuellen Bertrand M&uuml;ller vorgetragenen
Abhandlung &uuml;ber den Zerfall der Werte steht zudem die Geschichte eines
Heilsarmeem&auml;dchens in Berlin als poetischer Kontrast gegen&uuml;ber.

&ldquo;An unpredictable suspense novel that keeps the reader guessing to the end...A full-throttle thriller.&rdquo;&#160; &mdash; The New York Times&ldquo;A tight, intuitive, and terrific read. The Two Deaths of Daniel Hayes confirms Marcus Sakey&rsquo;s place as one of our best storytellers.&rdquo; &#160; &mdash; Michael Connelly&ldquo;A brainy, twisty, sometimes twisted mystery.&rdquo; &mdash; New York Times bestselling author Gillian Flynn&ldquo;If you crave sleep, steer clear of Marcus Sakey. Start one of his books at bedtime, and you can forget about slumber&hellip;His stories are crisp, cool and utterly convincing, with plots that sweep you up like a midnight raid at a speakeasy.

"Belief in the devil plays a significant role in the religious lives of many people, but this belief has been largely ignored in philosophy. The essays in this engaging collection begin to restore the balance by pursuing some of the philosophical challenges that emerge from the idea of an individual who is the embodiment of absolute evil." —William Hasker, Professor Emeritus, Huntington University, USA

"In this volume we see classical, modern and contemporary questions about the devil—his existence, nature and purpose(s)—being subjected to careful scrutiny and analysis. The treatment throughout is balanced and fair, in the spirit of C. S. Lewis who recommended squarely the avoidance of two errors: paying not enough attention, and paying far too much attention, to the Devil and matters diabolical. If angelic balance there be, the editors and contributors seem to have achieved a suitable (and we might add, timely) weighing of arguments and evidence regarding what many take to be the undeniable personification of evil in the midst of our world and our history." —Edward Martin, Liberty University, USA

Praise for LETTERS FROM HOME:"Letters from Home is an insightful portrait of the communion between the soldiers who fought for our country and those they left behind. A gripping and memorable story, it is a timeless lesson in love and loss and the moments that shape our lives."&mdash;Pamela Jenoff, author of The Kommandant's Girl"Letters from Home is an absorbing debut, combining the emotional power of The Notebook with the stirring history and drama of Saving Private Ryan. An evocative and compelling storyteller, Kristina McMorris gives us a novel to savor and remember."&mdash;Ben Sherwood, bestselling author of The Death & Life of Charlie St. Cloud"Nothing magnifies the intense passion and anxiety of romance and love so much as being in a time of war. Kristina McMorris admirably captures not only these emotions but the atmosphere of World War II in this page turning and enchanting novel."&mdash;Lois Battle, author of Bed and Breakfast"Letters From Home is a romantic, charming debut that evokes the World War II time period in wonderful detail. The likable characters and their varied intrigues kept me happily devouring pages until the end."&mdash;Ellen Baker, author of Keeping The House"Letters from Home is a tender and heartfelt glimpse of a time long past. While wholly original, it's filled with characters as beloved as your own grandparents. Propelled by the epic sweep of world war, yet warmed by intimate human moments, this story will linger in the reader's memory long after the last page is turned."&mdash;Susan Wiggs, New York Times bestselling author"Letters from Home is a heart-grabbing story of love and war in the era of big bands and among friends keen on small deceptions. Full of period detail and characters you root for, Kristina McMorris offers up a stellar debut novel readers will cherish."&mdash;Pamela Morsi

"In&nbsp;2016, an octopus named Inky made global news by escaping from New Zealand&rsquo;s National Aquarium. This story recounts that event and imagines Inky&rsquo;s pre- and postaquarium life in the wild. &ldquo;Each octopus set out on a journey alone. They&rsquo;re born ready to explore,&rdquo; Montgomery (How to Be a Good Creature) writes in her direct, deeply respectful prose. At birth, Inky is &ldquo;the size of a grain of rice,&rdquo; and his considerable intellect and ultrapliable body stand him in good stead as he grows until, baseball-size and bitten, he&rsquo;s scooped up in a fisherman&rsquo;s net and taken to an aquarium. Life in captivity means crab snacks, toys (he plays with Lego blocks and Mr. Potato Head), and tickles from his trainer. But his innate curiosity wins out, and one night, Inky slips out of his tank and slides into a floor drain that leads back to the ocean. Textured mixed-media collages by Schimler-Safford (Hidden City) playfully evoke underwater scenes with brilliant hues. Inky regards the world with eager, lightly anthropomorphized googly eyes, but he&rsquo;s never over-romanticized and emerges as a wily, winning personality. A final spread offers more octopus facts for eager learners." -- Publishers Weekly
