        Lust

        Fuckability, orgasm gap and #metoo

        by Henriette Hell

        Lust, a mortal sin? These times are over. In today's public perception, it is more likely for a boring sex life to be categorised as that. In statistical terms, people have never had as little sex with each other as they do today. And yet tips for a good sex life are to be found on every (digital) corner. Sex has mutated into a lifestyle product, and terms like 'fuckability' and 'MILF' trip lightly off our tongues. Henriette Hell takes a closer look at the thing about sex. She traces the history and genesis of 'sexual liberation', and sheds light on the 'cheating gene' and the #metoo debate. The author asks (and answers) the question of whether sex is becoming more and more antisocial and what actually still turns us on today. In doing so, she focuses on the former mortal sin of lust, which is inseparably linked to the systematic suppression of female lust (and its liberation).

        Critical theory and dystopia

        by Patricia McManus, Darrow Schecter

        Critical theory and dystopia offers a uniquely rich study of dystopian fiction, drawing on the insights of critical theory. Asking what ideological work these dark imaginings perform, the book reconstructs the historical emergence, consolidation and transformation of the genre across the twentieth century and into our own, ranging from Yevgeny Zamayatin's We (1924) and Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (1932) to Anthony Burgess's A Clockwork Orange (1963) and Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games series (2000s and 2010s). In doing so, it reveals the political logics opened up or neutered by the successive moments of this dystopian history.

        Flughunde

        Graphic Novel

        by Ulli Lust, Marcel Beyer, Andreas Platthaus, Marcel Beyer

        Seit dem Erscheinen seines ebenso brillanten wie erschütternden Romans »Flughunde« im Jahr 1995 gilt Marcel Beyer als »einer der besten jungen Romanciers der Gegenwart« (The New Yorker). »Flughunde«, mittlerweile in 14 Sprachen übersetzt, erzählt vom Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs aus der Perspektive eines fanatischen Akustikers im Dienste der Nazis und aus der Sicht einer der Töchter Goebbels’, erzählt von der Instrumentalisierung der Sprache durch die Propaganda und von Experimenten mit menschlichen Stimmen. Ulli Lust, eine der bedeutendsten deutschsprachigen Comic-Künstler und erst kürzlich mit dem Comic-Oscar, dem Prix Révélation, ausgezeichnet, legt hier Marcel Beyers verstörendes Meisterwerk als Graphic Novel vor.

        Wie ich versuchte, ein guter Mensch zu sein

        Graphic Novel

        by Ulli Lust

        Als vor acht Jahren Ulli Lusts autobiographischer Comic Heute ist der letzte Tag vom Rest deines Lebens erschien, wurde er als Meisterwerk gefeiert und mit zahlreichen internationalen Preisen ausgezeichnet. In ihrem sensationellen neuen Comic erzählt sie die heftige Geschichte einer ménage à trois, einer utopischen Liebe, die in Besitzanspruch und Gewalt umschlägt, eine Geschichte der sexuellen Obsession, der Geschlechterkonflikte und der Selbstbefreiung – ihre Geschichte. Ungeschützt, sinnlich, kraftvoll erzählt sie in diesem autobiographischen Comic, wie sie als junge, lebensgierige Anarchistin im Wien der neunziger Jahre eine Zukunft als Künstlerin aufzubauen versucht – und von ihrer Liebe zu zwei Männern: dem zwanzig Jahre älteren »perfekten Gefährten« Georg, Schauspieler, und dem »perfekten Liebhaber«, dem nigerianischen Lebemann Kimata. Dessen fehlende Aufenthaltsgenehmigung legt, trotz Ullis Bedenken, eine einzige Lösung nahe: Es muss geheiratet werden. Zugleich führt Kimatas Eifersucht immer öfter zu Gewaltausbrüchen, die zunehmend ihr Leben bedrohen …

        Critical games

        On play and seriousness in academia, literature and life

        by Tim Beasley-Murray

        Critical Games is about the games we play (whether we know it or not), the ways we play them (for fun, but also to win, and to gain approval from others), and what happens when they get out of hand. The book interrogates the theory of play and gaming, with a particular focus on the games played by literary authors and literary critics. Drawing on (often self-critical) autobiography, as well as readings in texts across a range of languages, Tim Beasley-Murray plays with academic conventions to highlight what is at stake in them, turning to the Game of Literature, from Kafka to Carrère, to seek models and warnings of the outcomes of taking games too seriously, or not taking them seriously enough.
