"Ik duw mijn onderlijf tegen Viktor aan. Hij wordt tegen de muur gedrukt... Hij trekt mijn rokje omhoog, zodat hij eronder kan komen. Daarna legt hij zijn linkerhand om mijn middel en ik besef dat hij zijn pik met zijn rechterhand naar mijn clitoris brengt..." Therese heeft bij de gate oogcontact met hem. Hij is precies het type man waar ze altijd voor valt: donker, sexy, mannelijk. Aan boord van het vliegtuig, een lange vlucht, komen ze tot Thereses vreugde naast elkaar te zitten. Tijdens de vlucht kijkt ze telkens zijn kant op. Wil hem hebben. Wil hem verleiden. Ze overweegt of ze het durft. Hoe zou hij reageren als ze met haar hand onder haar rokje zichzelf gaat vingeren – vlak naast hem? Tienduizend meter is een erotisch verhaal over het verlangen om een vreemdeling op een verboden plek te verleiden. B.J. Hermansson heeft een unieke stijl en schrijft verhalen die tegelijkertijd vol vaart en poëzie zitten, maar die de lezer ook uitdagen om vraagtekens te plaatsen bij onze traditionele denkbeelden, vooral als het gaat om normen en seksualiteit.

In Wild, Cheryl Strayed writes of The Ten Thousand Things: "Each of Dermoût’s sentences came at me like a soft knowing dagger, depicting a far-off land that felt to me like the blood of all the places I used to love.” And it's true, The Ten Thousand Things is at once novel of shimmering strangeness—and familiarity. It is the story of Felicia, who returns with her baby son from Holland to the Spice Islands of Indonesia, to the house and garden that were her birthplace, over which her powerful grandmother still presides. There Felicia finds herself wedded to an uncanny and dangerous world, full of mystery and violence, where objects tell tales, the dead come and go, and the past is as potent as the present. First published in Holland in 1955, Maria Dermoût's novel was immediately recognized as a magical work, like nothing else Dutch—or European—literature had seen before. The Ten Thousand Things is an entranced vision of a far-off place that is as convincingly real and intimate as it is exotic, a book that is at once a lament and an ecstatic ode to nature and life.

‘Thom Hoffman vindt een nieuwe vorm voor koloniale geschiedschrijving.’ Kester Freriks NRC ‘Razend interessant. Wij sluiten het boek om het vervolgens weer te openen, voor iedereen. Omdat het belangrijk is. Indië, betovering en desillusie: een persoonlijke zoektocht naar een verborgen geschiedenis die net iets minder verborgen is geworden dankzij Thom Hoffman.’ Ruth Joos en Wilfried de Jong in Brommer op zee ‘De liefde van de schrijver voor het land is, ondanks de desillusie, voelbaar in elk hoofdstuk.’ Femke van der Laan in Nooit Meer Slapen ‘Thom Hoffman heeft iets bijzonders gedaan. Dertig jaar geleden kende hij dankzij zijn grootvader vooral de warme herinneringen aan de Indische sfeer en het lekkere eten. Maar hij is veel over Nederlands-Indië gaan lezen. Subtiel ontvouwt hij de wrede kant van de geschiedenis. Begeleid door prachtige illustraties, oude affiches en foto’s.’ Mascha Sluijter (Boekhandel Los) in AD MEZZA ‘Toch zijn het niet alleen maar losse stukjes zoals in een encyclopedie die hij ons voorschotelt. Het is juist zijn persoonlijke zoektocht in de ondertitel die dit boek bijzonder maakt en die de losse delen aan elkaar verbindt. [...] Het zijn die delen in het boek waarin zijn persoonlijke betrokkenheid tot uiting komt en verklaren waarom hij dit allemaal doet.’ Moesson ‘Een compliment aan Thom Hoffman voor dit fabuleuze resultaat van een zoektocht die ooit begon met zijn spreekbeurt op de middelbare school in 1969.’ Azië Magazine Hoffmans jarenlange zoektocht naar het werkelijke Indië, vanaf het begin van de VOC tot aan de onafhankelijkheid van Indonesië, vindt zijn eindpunt in dit boek ‘Boven mijn jongensbed hing een Sumatraanse tijger.’ Zo begint Thom Hoffmans fascinerende en beeldende reis door de tijd. Onder een imposante tijgerkop droomde hij als 13-jarige over het sepiagekleurde Nederlands-Indië, het land van zijn grootouders. Oma en opa overleden kort na elkaar. Hoe was hun leven in Indië geweest? Omdat Thom zijn lievelingsoma geen vragen meer kon stellen, ging hij op zoek naar antwoorden. Geraakt door Couperus, Multatuli, Kousbroek, Kartini, Székely-Lulofs en andere schrijvers, en door films en documentaires, maakte Hoffman de afgelopen dertig jaar een persoonlijke reis. Hij begon met het verzamelen van boeken over Nederlands-Indië en hoe meer hij las, hoe duidelijker de contouren zich aftekenden van de kolonie onder Nederlands gezag, van de VOC tot aan de soevereiniteitsoverdracht in 1949. Een geschiedenis die ver uitstijgt boven familieverledens. Indië als decor voor betovering, mysterie en schandaal, maar ook het strijdtoneel voor opvattingen over verandering. Het Indonesisch vrijheidsstreven leefde op. Hoe ging Nederland daarmee om? Boeiende persoonlijkheden als Jacob Haafner, baron Van Hoëvell, Kartini, Tan Malaka, Hatta en Soekarno completeren een caleidoscopisch en vaak aangrijpend beeld. Indië, betovering en desillusie is een boeiende en persoonlijke zoektocht naar de waarheid achter deze voormalige Nederlandse kolonie. In de pers OVER THOM HOFFMAN ‘Geef die man een filmprogramma! – Hoffman is een geboren verteller.’ Het Parool OVER HOFFMANS FOTOTENTOONSTELLING ‘DOSSIER INDI˒ ‘De klassieke fotografie van Nederlands-Indië, waar “mooi” de maatstaf was, kantelt in Hoffmans visie en krijgt een zwarte schaduw. De tentoonstelling weet beslist het hart en geweten van nu te raken. Indrukwekkend en beklemmend.’ **** NRC Handelsblad

FALLING UPWARDS is a vivid group biography and adventure that tells how men and women first felt as they rose towards the clouds into a new dimension - of science, exploration, warfare, literature, discovery.Romantic biographer Richard Holmes floats across the world following the pioneer generation of balloon aeronauts, from the first heroic experiments of the Montgolfiers in 1780s to the tragic attempt to fly a balloon to the North Pole in the 1890s. Dramatic sequences move from the early Anglo-French balloon rivalries, the crazy firework flights of beautiful Sophie Blanchard; the revelatory ascents over sprawling Victorian industrial cities of Northern Europe; and the astonishing long-distance voyages of the American entrepreneur John Wise, and the French photographer Felix Nadar. Later we find balloons used to observe the horrors of battle during the American Civil War (including a memorable flight by General Custer); the tale of sixty balloons that escaped Paris during the Prussian siege of 1870; and the terrifying seven mile high flight - without oxygen - of James Glaisher, helping to establish the science of meteorology and the environmental notion of a 'fragile' planet. Readers will also discover the writers - from Mary Shelley to Edgar Alan Poe, Dickens to Verne - who allowed the imaginative impact of flight to soar in their work. In exploring the interplay between technology and science fiction, the understanding of the biosphere, and the metaphysics of flight itself, Holmes offers another of his subtle portraits of human endeavour, recklessness and vision.

'Books such as this are essential: they remind modern readers of events that should never be forgotten' - Caroline Moorehead On March 25, 1942, nearly a thousand young, unmarried Jewish women boarded a train in Poprad, Slovakia. Filled with a sense of adventure and national pride, they left their parents' homes wearing their best clothes and confidently waving good-bye. Believing they were going to work in a factory for a few months, they were eager to report for government service. Instead, the young women-many of them teenagers-were sent to Auschwitz. Their government paid 500 Reichsmarks (about £160) apiece for the Nazis to take them as slave labour. Of those 999 innocent deportees, only a few would survive. The facts of the first official Jewish transport to Auschwitz are little known, yet profoundly relevant today. These were not resistance fighters or prisoners of war. There were no men among them. Sent to almost certain death, the young women were powerless and insignificant not only because they were Jewish-but also because they were female. Now, acclaimed author Heather Dune Macadam reveals their poignant stories, drawing on extensive interviews with survivors, and consulting with historians, witnesses, and relatives of those first deportees to create an important addition to Holocaust literature and women's history.

‘The story of oncology is not only fascinating but also contains many accounts of dead ends, chance discoveries, illusions, mistakes and disappointments alongside the few successes.’These words are taken from the introduction to this book. The author, professor emeritus of Medical Oncology, reviews all aspects of the problem of cancer from a historical perspective, from the oldest existing records to the latest scientific and medical advances. It will interest the many people engaged in the treatment of cancer to read how the current therapeutic methods came about, and the book may also provide inspiration for cancer researchers, and for all those directly or indirectly involved with cancer. The layman looking for background information on a particular treatment may find it useful too. The various chapters can be read independently. A glossary and a few explanatory diagrams augment the text.This book grew out of an invitation the author received to lecture on the history of oncology. During his background reading, he discovered that there was no single volume dealing with the entire history of the subject. Fortunately, however, a great deal of information could be found here and there in the literature. As he read, he was struck by the fascinating stories behind many discoveries, and felt impelled to put them together in a single comprehensive account. The results of his labors are presented in this remarkable volume.The author, Prof. D.J.Th. (Theo) Wagener, was head of the department of Medical Oncology at the Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre in the Netherlands from 1982 to 2001, chairman of the Educational Committee of the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO), a member of the Educational Committee of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and a member of various international scientific working groups, mainly of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC).

The reign of Emperor Yongle, or “Perpetual Happiness,” was one of the most dramatic and significant in Chinese history. It began with civil war and a bloody coup, saw the construction of the Forbidden City, the completion of the Grand Canal, consolidation of the imperial bureaucracy, and expansion of China’s territory into Mongolia, Manchuria, and Vietnam. Beginning with an hour-by-hour account of one day in Yongle’s court, Shih-shan Henry Tsai presents the multiple dimensions of the life of Yongle (Zhu Di, 1360-1424) in fascinating detail. Tsai examines the role of birth, education, and tradition in molding the emperor’s personality and values, and paints a rich portrait of a man characterized by stark contrasts. Synthesizing primary and secondary source materials, he has crafted a colorful biography of the most renowned of the Ming emperors.
