Winner of the British Fantasy Award! Nominated for the Philip K. Dick Award! Find out if five Dereks are better than one in Nino Cipri's Defekt, the sequel to Finna, the surrealist world-hopping adventure. Derek is LitenVärld's most loyal employee. He lives and breathes the job, from the moment he wakes up in a converted shipping container at the edge of the parking lot to the second he clocks out of work 18 hours later. But after taking his first ever sick day, his manager calls that loyalty into question. An excellent employee like Derek, an employee made to work at LitenVärld, shouldn't need time off. To test his commitment to the job, Derek is assigned to a special inventory shift, hunting through the store to find defective products. Toy chests with pincers and eye stalks, ambulatory sleeper sofas, killer mutant toilets, that kind of thing. Helping him is the inventory team — four strangers who look and sound almost exactly like him. Are five Dereks better than one?

Dokumentarfilme sollen laut Literatur die vorgefundene Realität des abgebildeten Objekts möglichst wirklichkeitsnah darstellen und in ihrer Faktizität einen Wahrheitsanspruch haben. Dass dem nicht immer so ist, zeigt der Dokumentarfilm "Fahrenheit 9/11" von Michael Moore, welcher das zentrale Element dieses Buches darstellt. Thema des Films selbst, sind die Ereignisse und Auswirkungen der Terroranschläge vom 11. September 2001 in New York, sowie die Hintergründe des Irak-Krieges unter der Regierung Bush. Michael Moore muss dabei dem Vorwurf entgegentreten, in seinem Film einen zu großen subjektiven Einfluss eingebracht und ihn zu einem propagandistischen Werkzeug gemacht zu haben. Im Vorfeld erfährt der Leser im ersten Teil des Buches, welcher theoretische und geschichtliche Hintergrund dem Dokumentarfilm zukommt und erlangt dadurch ein Grundverständnis für das dokumentarische Genre. Auch den Medien kann Inszenierung und Manipulation vorgeworfen werden. Besonders das Fernsehen durchwirkt den Alltag der Menschen und zeigt ihnen eine Welt, von der sie glaubt, real zu sein. In diesem Spannungsfeld wird das dokumentarische Genre des Fernsehens auf seine Strukturen hin untersucht und die manipulierenden sowie inszenierten Formate des heutigen dokumentarischen Fernsehens aufgezeigt. Im zweiten Teil des Buches wird der Dokumentarfilm am Beispiel des Films "Fahrenheit 9/11" auf seinen Wahrheitsgehalt hin analysiert und in die Vorwurfskette integriert. Mittels einer systematischen Filmanalyse untersucht der Autor, ob und inwiefern sich die Vorwürfe von Inszenierung, Subjektivität und Manipulation rechtfertigen lassen, oder ob dem Film "Fahrenheit 9/11", entgegen aller Kritik, Wahrheit und somit Authentizität zugesprochen werden kann. Die systematische Filmanalyse wird dabei durch eine explizite Inhaltsangabe zu dem Film eröffnet und durch Hintergrundinformationen ergänzt. Ein begleitendes Filmprotokoll liefert die nötigen Informationen, um einen Rückschluss auf Authentisierungs-, Inszenierungs- und Manipulationsstrategien zu geben. Die Ergebnisse der Analyse werden dem Leser in Diagrammform visualisiert und entsprechend erläutert. Aus den gewonnenen Erkenntnissen lassen sich letztendlich Antworten auf die Fragestellungen ableiten, welche die Studie über den Dokumentarfilm abrunden und schließen sollen. Die zentralen Fragen des Autors lauten, ob Michael Moore durch seinen Film die Wahrheit vermittelt hat, oder ob er sich dem Vorwurf der Manipulation stellen muss. Da Konstruktion und Subjektivität dem dokumentarischen Genre immanent sind, muss letztendlich auch beantwortet werden, wo die Grenzen zwischen authentischer, glaubwürdiger und rein subjektiver, manipulierender Darstellung verlaufen und wie hoch der Grad an Subjektivität in einem Dokumentarfilm letztendlich sein darf, um seiner Verpflichtung die Wahrheit zu vermitteln, gerecht zu bleiben.

“A magical anti-capitalist adventure.” —Annalee Newitz Nino Cipri's Finna is a rambunctious, touching story that blends all the horrors the multiverse has to offer with the everyday awfulness of low-wage work. It explores queer relationships and queer feelings, capitalism and accountability, labor and love, all with a bouncing sense of humor and a commitment to the strange. When an elderly customer at a Swedish big box furniture store — but not that one — slips through a portal to another dimension, it’s up to two minimum-wage employees to track her across the multiverse and protect their company’s bottom line. Multi-dimensional swashbuckling would be hard enough, but those two unfortunate souls broke up a week ago. To find the missing granny, Ava and Jules will brave carnivorous furniture, swarms of identical furniture spokespeople, and the deep resentment simmering between them. Can friendship blossom from the ashes of their relationship? In infinite dimensions, all things are possible.

Es wird ein dreidimensionales Demokratiekonzept präsentiert und eine Typologie defekter Demokratien entwickelt.

In ‘The Politics of Experience’ and the visionary ‘Bird of Paradise’, R.D. Laing shows how the straitjacket of conformity imposed on us all leads to intense feelings of alienation and a tragic waste of human potential. He throws into question the notion of normality, examines schizophrenia and psychotherapy, transcendence and ‘us and them’ thinking, and illustrates his ideas with a remarkable case history of a ten-day psychosis. ‘We are bemused and crazed creatures,’ Laing suggests. This outline of ‘a thoroughly self-conscious and self-critical human account of man’ represents a major attempt to understand our deepest dilemmas and sketch in solutions. ‘Everyone in contemporary psychiatry owes something to R.D. Laing’ Anthony Clare, the Guardian.

"I never fast before medical procedures-it gives me joy to confuse the doctors. I think they like it, too, gives them more of a challenge. Once, on the way to have my kidney removed, I stopped at an all-you-can-eat buffet for a large plate of beef kidneys with mushrooms and garlic. You should have seen the expression on the surgeon's face when he opened me up and had to spot which kidney was mine and which belonged to the beef. I couldn't see his expression though because I was under anesthesia." "Did you have dreams?" "As a child, yes, many times. Dreamed of cowboys, Indians, ghosts, flies in the soup . . ." "Me, I still dream, even now as an adult, even now as I sit here. But I always forget the dreams, so I can't be sure if I really had them or if they were just a dream. How's the duck?" "It's quite exquisite. Like a chicken mixed with a lake. Please, have some." The woman used her fork to take a tiny, almost invisible piece of duck from the man's plate. She drowned it in vinegar, blew on it for a long minute, then ate it while closing her eyes. Egglike is the first novel by musician and artist Adi Gelbart.

Sensible, practical Elinor Tregarth really did plan to be the model poor relation when she moved into her aunt and uncle's house. She certainly never meant to kidnap her awful cousin Penelope's pet dragon. She never expected to fall in love with the shameless - but surprisingly sweet - fortune hunter who came to court Penelope, either. And she never dreamed that she would have to enter into an outrageous magical charade to save her younger sisters' futures. However, even the most brilliant scholars of 1817 England still haven't ferreted out all the lurking secrets of rediscovered dragonkind...and even the most sensible of heroines can still make a reckless wish or two when she's pushed. Now Elinor will have to find out just how rash and resourceful she can be when she sets aside all common sense. Maybe, just maybe, she'll even be impractical enough to win her own true love and a happily ever after...with the unpredictable and dangerous "help" of the magical creature who has adopted her. A frothy Regency rom-com full of pet dragons and magical misadventures, Scales and Sensibility is a full-length novel and the first in a new series of standalone romantic comedies.

“An important contribution to the history of World War II . . . I have never before been able to learn so much about maintenance methods of an armored division, with precise details that underline the importance of the work, along with descriptions of how the job was done.”—Russell F. Weigley, author of Eisenhower’s Lieutenants “Cooper saw more of the war than most junior officers, and he writes about it better than almost anyone. . . . His stories are vivid, enlightening, full of life—and of pain, sorrow, horror, and triumph.”—Stephen E. Ambrose, from his Foreword “In a down-to-earth style, Death Traps tells the compelling story of one man’s assignment to the famous 3rd Armored Division that spearheaded the American advance from Normandy into Germany. Cooper served as an ordnance officer with the forward elements and was responsible for coordinating the recovery and repair of damaged American tanks. This was a dangerous job that often required him to travel alone through enemy territory, and the author recalls his service with pride, downplaying his role in the vast effort that kept the American forces well equipped and supplied. . . . [Readers] will be left with an indelible impression of the importance of the support troops and how dependent combat forces were on them.”—Library Journal “As an alumnus of the 3rd, I eagerly awaited this book’s coming out since I heard of its release . . . and the wait and the book have both been worth it. . . . Cooper is a very polished writer, and the book is very readable. But there is a certain quality of ‘you are there’ many other memoirs do not seem to have. . . . Nothing in recent times—ridgerunning in Korea, firebases in Vietnam, or even the one hundred hours of Desert Storm—pressed the ingenuity and resolve of American troops . . . like WWII. This book lays it out better than any other recent effort, and should be part of the library of any contemporary warrior.”—Stephen Sewell, Armor Magazine “Cooper’s writing and recall of harrowing events is superb and engrossing. Highly recommended.”—Robert A. Lynn, The Stars and Stripes “This detailed story will become a classic of WWII history and required reading for anyone interested in armored warfare.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “[Death Traps] fills a critical gap in WWII literature. . . . It’s a truly unique and valuable work.”—G.I. Journal
