  • af Troels Kløvedal
    43,94 - 116,95 kr.

    Troels Kløvedal tager læseren med ud på sit livs drømmerejse i de polynesiske farvande. Togtet med Nordkaperen handler ikke kun om at sejle og dykke, men også om at gå i land i lange perioder, leve sig ind i kulturen, og med den særlige Kløvedalske åbenhed og glæde være sammen med og lære af nye mennesker og anderledes livsformer. "Troels Kløvedal kommer vidt omkring. Naturligvis løser forfatteren ikke gåden om polynesernes oprindelse, men rigtige sprællevende havfruer har han dog mødt. Det er en fascinerende bog." - Holger Ruppert, B.T.

Nu trækker det højpotente Hollywood i hende.Trevor er gammel nok til at kunne være far til Alicia. Han vil gerne være filminstruktør, han ved bare ikke, hvad han skal instruere.

Nu vil han score Alicia og drage tilbage med sin eneste ene ved sin side. Og en dag i Hollywood er hun blevet gravid.Kan Alicia og Trevor finde sammen? Kan de finde et fælles paradis? Vil man overhovedet sætte et barn i verden, hvis denne verden er uden fremtid? Bærer selve ideen om kernefamilien en stor del af ansvaret for verdens udarmede forfatning? Og findes der andre samlivsformer og fællesskaber, der muliggør en smukkere og mere bæredygtig fortsættelse af menneskeslægten?

  • - Sømanden Ebbe Thomsens fantastiske liv i Polynesien
    af Jørgen Henrik Jensen
    167,95 - 198,95 kr.

    Da Ebbe Thomsen i 1913 fik hyre på et skib i indenrigsfart, havde han ingen anelse om, at det blev starten på et langt liv med en udenlandsk maritim karriere. Hans oplevelser ude i Stillehavet er beretningen om dæksdrengen fra Kolding, der som ung blev drevet af eventyrlyst, videbegær og ikke mindst af den kærlighed, han mødte på Samoa midt i Polynesien.Da han for første gang ankom til hovedstaden Apia, vidste han, at hans skæbne var beseglet. Det var her, han ville leve resten af sine dage.Ved første øjekast lignede det hele en naturperle i skønhed helt uden sidestykke. Det skulle dog snart vise sig, at der under overfladen lå stærke altødelæggende naturkræfter og lurede. Til søs uddannede Ebbe sig til matros, styrmand, telegrafist og navigatør. Hans ansættelse på amerikanske handelsskibe og flair for tal og handel berigede ham også med en maritim handelsuddannelse. 2. verdenskrig satte en brat stopper for en ellers lovende karriere i Polynesien. Skæbnen ville, at Ebbe ufrivilligt måtte foretage et stort karriereskift. Skiftet resulterede i, at han endte som politidirektør. Kærligheden til Polynesien og hans nye familie fjernede aldrig længslen hjem til Danmark. Savnet af hans danske familie fremgår af de mange års brevudveksling. De fleste af brevene hjem til familien blev af sikkerhedshensyn under 2. Verdenskrig gemt i et chartek. De blev først fundet i 1998 og er baggrunden for, at Ebbe Thomsens historie nu kan fortælles. Ebbe Thomsen er forfatterens grandonkel, og det var i et arvet møbel, at brevene dukkede op.

    Porträt einer paradisisch anmutenden, doch vom Untergang bedrohten Inselkultur im PazifikFunafuti, eines der neun Atolle, die den Inselstaat Tuvalu bilden, ist mit kaum 2,8 Quadratkilometern ein erstaunlich kleines Stückchen Land mitten im Pazifischen Ozean. Neugierig auf die Menschen und ihre Kultur auf einer so abgelegenen Insel, reisten die Fotografin Julia de Cooker und ihre Schwester, die Schriftstellerin Émilie de Cooker, nach Tuvalu, wohl wissend um die bedrohliche Zukunft der Inselgruppe: In wenigen Jahrzehnten wird sie unter dem steigenden Meerespiegel versinken. Trotz dieser finsteren Aussichten konzentrierten sie sich darauf, die Lebensfreude des Inselalltags zu zeigen, was zu Fragen nach ihrer eigenen Art zu leben und einen Platz in der Welt zu beanspruchen führte. Das so enstandene Buch ist ein künstlerisches und philosophisches Porträt von "Funafuti i aso nei (heute)" sowie ein Plädoyer gegen globale Standardisierung und für lebendige Diversität.

    af Jørgen Henrik Jensen

    Da Grethe som 70-årig i en arvesag fra Polynesien fik behov for at dokumentere, hvem hun var, kunne hun ikke. På dåbsattesten var hendes moder et journalnummer og faderen ukendt. I det offentlige var hun registreret med sit kælenavn, og bindeleddet til hendes familie havde hun ikke.Som voksen var hun vellidt i sin omgangskreds og var kendt for sit sprudlende humør. Kun få kendte til hendes hemmelighed om de forfærdelige barndomsår.Som lille drømte hun sig ofte væk til sin fjerne onkel på Samoa. Hun ville så gerne besøge ham. Som voksen fortsatte drømmen, næret af utallige breve, og endte med at blive til virkelighed.Grethe er min moder, og jeg har altid vidst, at hun havde haft en meget barsk barndom. Kun sjældent røbede hun noget, og altid kun i små doser om, hvad hun havde været igennem. Hun fortalte aldrig hele historien. Det gjorde for ondt.Da hun som 70-årig brød grædende sammen, kom der en del mere. Nok til, at jeg kunne sammenfatte historien om hendes opvækst. Mod alle odds blev hendes liv alligevel fantastisk.Jeg skulle selv være 70, før jeg skrev bogen. Det blev ikke uden tårer.
