”Hjernetumorfortællinger” indeholder 23 personlige fortællinger om mødet med hjernetumor. Livshistorierne er skrevet af både hjernetumorramte og pårørende. Det er unikt at få et indblik i begge sider. Der er også udtalelser fra fagpersoner bagerst i bogen. Antologien er til alle, der er ramt af eller er tæt på livstruende sygdom. Vi er både med på hospitalet og i hjemmet. Bogen rummer en samling af personlige historier om, hvordan det føles at miste en del af sig selv, og om at miste eller leve videre med ens nærmeste, der lever med en større eller mindre hjerneskade. De selvbiografiske beretninger i “Hjernetumorfortællinger” kan starte vigtige og svære samtaler. Sygeplejerske Elisabeth Rasmussen udtaler: “Jeg har læst Hjernetumorfortællinger med min sjæl og min personlighed, men også med de faglige briller. Jeg er blevet klogere på, hvordan jeg kan gøre en forskel, og sidder tilbage med en stor taknemmelighed. Historierne har radikalt ændret noget i mig.”Citater fra bogen: ”Jeg er helbredt, men ikke rask. Hjerneskadet og sanseforstærket.” Dagmar ”Jeg er taknemmelig for, at min dårlige hukommelse giver mig mulighed for at se alting med friske øjne igen.” Nivi ”Jeg kan sidde og iagttage ham, og bortset fra arret i panden og de ekstra ni år ligner han jo den mand, han var inden. Han lyder også som ham. Han kan lide at lave de samme ting, og han opfører sig næsten som inden. Men han er ikke den samme.” Anette

En selvbiografisk bog for dig, der har fået en livstruende diagnose eller er pårørende. Hvordan føles det at have en livstruende diagnose inde på livet? Og hvilke konsekvenser har det, når man bliver opereret i hjernen? Her kommer man tæt på 13 hjernetumorramte og 10 pårørende, der hver fortæller om deres møde med hjernetumor. Derudover er der korte interviews med en neuropsykolog, en neurokirurg, en kræftlæge og formanden for HjernetumorForeningen. Og terapeutiske og forløsende skriveøvelser. Jacob Birkler skriver i forordet: Denne bog kan bidrage til forståelse, der kan virke befriende for både patienter, pårørende og sundhedsprofessionelle. Bogen handler ikke om sygehistorier, men om livsfortællinger, hvor sygdom er med. (…) Det er beretninger om kærlighed, der blandes med sorg, men også vilje, der blandes med magtesløshed. Følelserne står sjældent alene, men vikles sammen på måder, vi mindst forventer det. Stærkest står måske taknemmeligheden, som de fleste af bogens fortællere føler.”

This revolutionary work contends that Shakespeare was one of the most documented figures of all time: that he was regarded as a legend in his own time: and that this legend was recorded by the other leading playwrights in a series of works written throughout Shakespeare's career.This unique dramatic record also featured other leading figures of the time, with the controversial figure of the Earl of Oxford very prominent. The contrast between Oxford and Shakespeare is very much on display, with a tension between them.Dealing with two periods in the career, All is True commences with a startling reinterpretation of the so-called 'Poetomachia' plays of 1599, revealing a much greater involvement by Shakespeare.Written by an independent researcher, All is True contends that there were nearly twenty plays that focused on Shakespeare at various phases of his career, these works having been written by writers whose concentration on Shakespeare had a documentary intention.Using Ben Jonson's mainly unused description of Shakespeare, the inquiry juggles with the differences between The Actor and The Sonnet Writer. In a new emphasis, the Actor is seen as essential to the writer.The second part of the inquiry outlines Shakespeare's earliest years in London, these years seen as very active, concerning a Shakespeare who was regarded as a born achiever, from the time of first appearance in London.There is an outlining of Shakespeare's early development as a playwright, with some of the Shakespeare Apocrypha receiving treatment as early work that preceded the canon plays.The usually overlooked Robert Greene emerges with a much greater role in relation to Shakespeare and the Age. The reasons for his hostile outlook towards Shakespeare are revealed.Marlowe, and his role as the turning point artist of the epoch, is examined in relation to the various other influences of the 1580s time, in what was The Age of Euphues.Other greatly featured contemporaries include Jonson, Dekker, Marston, Hunsdon, Sir Edward Dyer, and The Young Man of the Sonnets. There is a surprising confirmation of the identity of The Dark Lady.Overall, this entirely new view of Shakespeare as a legend in his own lifetime claims to have located the real Shakespeare as his life exists in his own plays, in accordance with the accompanying powerful theatrical-documentary record from his own day.Not formally a biography, All is True outlines an emotional life history of the artist that connects the life of the author to the plays, as never before.

Die lila Augen der Heide geraten ins Blickfeld. Holunderwunder werden aufgespürt. Folgen Sie uns ans Oderufer oder nach Buckow. Märkische Wanderungen leben auf, Fontane kommt ins Spiel, Kartoffeln müssen geerntet werden. Manchmal zieht ein brauner Trupp trunken nach Hause. Ein Besuch im Spreewald wird abgestattet, in den Fließen gepaddelt. Viele Gedichte zum Thema Brandenburg sind im Band zu finden. Der Doppeladler gerät in den Blick, wie er nach fremden Land giert. Zahlreiche Gedichte zur Ukraine und dem Krieg sind aufzufinden. Eine Feuerpause beschreibt ein Gedicht. Die Verlegung der Truppen aus Afghanistan kommt zur Sprache, das Mandat des Staubes. Der Vulkanausbruch auf La Palma findet in lyrischen Zeilen Ausdruck. Wie wirkt eine leer geräumte Wohnung? Welche Sorgen haben Scheidungskinder? Wie verliert man seinen schwarzen König vom Schachbrett? An das Gericht und die Hexentaufe wird erinnert. Von der alten Dorfschenke ist zu reden. Finger suchen den anderen Körper zu entziffern, elektrisieren die Sinne.

The story is a mixture of adventure, fact, fear, fiction and fun about a German-Polish-Catholic woman from Upper Silesia and an Austrian-Jewish-Protestant man born in Vienna.
