These two novellas demonstrate why Alain Robbe-Grillet, the leading practitioner and theorist of the noveau roman, is one of the most discussed and controversial writers of the post-war era. In La Maison de Rendez-vous, the master of the "new novel" creates a world of crime, intrigue, and passion dominated by Lady Ava's mysterious Blue Villa. Set in Hong Kong, the novella unfolds over the course of one evening, but the events of that night recur repeatedly, from the perspectives of different characters. Robbe-Grillet creates an unsettling work that challenges ideas about subjectivity and objectivity, fiction and fact, and the entire process of storytelling. A haunting, disorienting, and brilliantly constructed novel, Djinn is the story of a young man who joins a clandestine organization under the command of an alluring, androgynous American girl named Djinn. His search for the meaning of his mission and for possible clues to the identity of the mysterious Djinn, becomes a quest for his own identity in an ever-shifting time-space continuum.

A comprehensive and intimate guide to finding, keeping, and enjoying love after fifty, the best kind of love there is.Studies keep showing that love after fifty is more satisfying than at any other stage in life, and it makes sense: at this stage, you are more emotionally stable and more focused on the present; you know what you absolutely have to have, but also what you can live without; partnering is no longer about building family and fortune—it’s about sharing intimacy as grounded individuals. And sex isn’t pass/fail anymore, but about becoming erotic friends. So, if this is the promised land, how do you get there? In Love After 50, journalist Francine Russo interviewed the best experts in the field and dozens of couples to help show the way. Her “practical, excellent guide” (John Gottman, author of The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work) includes advice like: -How to recover from the emotional damage of divorce, the grief of widowhood, or a history of unfulfilling relationships -How to build realistic requirements for a partner -What attitudes to bring to dating -How to overcome the psychical challenges of sex and embrace your erotic selves -How to evaluate the financial, emotional, and practical results of marrying, living together, or living apart -How to deal with (hostile) adult kids to safeguard your relationship and family Love After 50 is “essential reading” (Pauline Boss, PhD, author of The Myth of Closure) that is not only practical but also unassuming and candid. It is full of real people’s stories (including the author’s), with vivid examples of couples who have overcome their pasts to form healthy and nurturing partnerships. In other words, it’s as real as love after fifty can be.

The beautiful new `Whittaker Journal¿ from content creator and youtuber, Carys Whittaker.

Mit Humor lassen sich Widrigkeiten und Konflikte leichter bewaltigen. Menschliche Schwachen, soziale Unterschiede und Tabus konnen angesprochen und besser toleriert werden. In vielen auereuropaischen Gesellschaften wurden deshalb sogenannte Scherzbeziehungen entwickelt und in das soziale Leben eingebunden. 2014 wurden sie von der UNESCO als immaterielles Weltkulturerbe anerkannt. Am Beispiel Westafrikas zeigt Ulla Fels, dass diese originelle, kommunikative Methode erlernbar ist, wann sie angewandt wird und weshalb sie in Beziehungen das Gefhl von Freundschaft und Verbundenheit frdert.

Franklin D. Roosevelt war der letzte US-Präsident, der in der Welt sozialen Ausgleich und damit dauerhaften Frieden schaffen wollte. Dieses Buch über sein Leben verquickt Realität und Phantasie und geht über das tatsächliche Todesjahr hinaus. Die Schilderung seiner ungewöhnlichen Lebensverhältnisse und seiner mutigen Politik entspricht bis etwa 1944 meist den Tatsachen. Die Charaktere der im Buch auftretenden Personen sind jedoch ebenso frei erfunden, wie deren Aussagen und Handlungen und die daraus resultierenden wunderbaren politischen Folgen.Es ist halt ein Märchen.

"Is the father I wanted the father my children want me to be, too? Or is the father I got the father I've inevitably become? Almost everyone yearns to know their parents more thoroughly before they die, to solve some of those lifelong mysteries. Maybe, just maybe, those answers will help you live your own life. But life doesn't stop to wait. In his fifties, writer Tad Friend is grappling with being a husband and father and trying to grasp who he is as a son. Torn between two families, he careens between two stages in life. On some days he feels vigorous, on the brink of greatness when he plays tournament squash. On others, he feels distinctly old, troubled by his yawning distance from millennial sensibilities or by his own face in the mirror, by a grimace that's so like his father's. Theodore Friend, [a] ... historian and the former president of Swarthmore College, was gregarious and charming with strangers yet cerebral with his children. Tad writes that 'trying to reach him in any deeper way always felt like ice fishing.' Yet now Tad's father, known to his family as Day, seems concerned chiefly with the flavor of ice cream in his bowl and, when pushed, interested only in reconsidering his view of Franklin Roosevelt. Then Tad finds his father's files, a trove of passionate confessions that reveals a man entirely different from and more complex than the exasperatingly logical father Day was so determined to be. It turns out that Tad has been behaving self-destructively in the same way Day was--a secret each kept from everyone, even themselves. These discoveries make Tad reconsider his own role, both as a father and a son. But is it too late for both of them?"--
