        IT’S OUR FUTURE

        THE YOUNG FEMALE REBELS CHANGING OUR WORLD

        by Bettina Weiguny

        Greta Thunberg is not alone: there is now a worldwide movement. Young female rebels are taking to the world stage. They are campaigning for clean drinking water, opposing the gun lobby, mobilising against child marriage and child labour. In order to achieve their goals, they are speaking at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, at the Economic Forum in Davos, at climate conferences or at the "March for Our Lives" in Washington. Their influence is immense; a single speech can shake global corporations such as Siemens. Behind the young activists, just a Tweet away, stands a whole generation. The book introduces the key players, for example Emma González and the Indonesian sisters, 10 and 12 years old, who managed to bring about the prohibition of single use plastic on Bali, but it also follows up the fundamental issues: who brings them out onto the streets, what motivates them?

        Hermann Hesse - Erlebte Orte

        Volker Michels zum 80. Geburtstag

        by Silver Hesse, Karl-Josef Kuschel, Volker Michels

        »Volker Michels hat mit der Erschließung, Edition und Kommentierung der Werke und Briefe Hermann Hesses eine unvergleichliche Lebensleistung erbracht. Anlässlich seines 80. Geburtstags sagen Kollegen, Freunde und Weggefährten Dank. Und wie stattet man diesen Dank einem Hesse-Forscher besser ab als damit, dass man die Orte im Leben des Schriftstellers noch einmal in Erinnerung ruft, die Hesse erlebt, die aber auch seine hier versammelten Beiträger/-innen erlebt haben. Die subjektive Perspektive ist in diesem Band konzeptionell gewollt. Wir haben unsere Autorinnen und Autoren direkt gefragt: Verbinden Sie mit diesem Ort persönliche Erinnerungen? Inspiriert er Sie zu Reflexionen über Hesse als Person und Dichter? Stellt der Ort Ihnen Fragen, die Sie gern an Hesse richten würden? Kurz: Wir Herausgeber wollten, dass über eine bloße Beschreibung des Ortes hinaus die Verfasser/-innen ihre Reflexionen und ihr persönliches Erleben mit dem jeweiligen Hesse-Ort erkennen lassen. In diesem Doppelsinn ist der gewählte Titel zu verstehen: Hermann Hesse. Erlebte Orte. Volker Michels zum 80. Geburtstag.« Die Herausgeber Silver Hesse und Karl-Josef Kuschel

        Royal Horses (1). Crown Heart

        by Jana Hoch

        His world is that of the Royals – full of scandals and secrets. Falling in love with him was never part of her plan. Their paths cross at the royal stud farm... Greta just wants to get away: away from her school and away from the friends who have so endlessly disappointed her. The holiday job at the royal stud farm comes at just the right time for her. She might not have any interest in horses – and even less in princes and princesses – but the royal family’s palace still makes her heart beat faster. But on the very first day she quarrels with Edward, the horse trainer. He guesses that she is hiding a secret and wants to do whatever it takes to bring it out in the open. When, shortly afterwards, Prince Tristan appears at the stud farm, Greta’s life is completely turned upside down. She notices all too late that she is in the process of falling in love – and specifically with the boy that she actually wants to stay away from. Humorous and romantic, glamorous and exciting: ‘Royal Horses’ is the perfect love story for all readers from 12 to 99 years-old. Greta and Edward‘s story continues! Volume 2, ‘Crown Dream’ will be out in autumn 2020.
