Spanish literary fiction. House founded in 2015 in Valparaíso (Chile). We want to provide a haven for readers in times of storm. Now that the arrival of new titles is overwhelming, at Kindberg we are committed to a detailed rhythm, to slow-publishing instead of disposable titles. The books we choose are the ones we like and that is why we believe in them and we want other readers to like them. And yes, we only publish fiction, because "poetry, beauty, art, love are the things that keep us alive".

Düstere Geheimnisse umgeben das berüchtigte Jamaica Inn, das einsam im Moor von Cornwall liegt. Dorthin verschlägt es die junge Waise Mary nach dem Tod ihrer Mutter. Bei ihrer Tante Patience und ihrem Onkel Joss soll sie ein neues Zuhause finden. Doch das Gasthaus nahe der zerklüfteten, sturmgepeitschten Küste beherbergt dunkle Gestalten, die üblen Geschäften nachgehen – und ihr Anführer scheint Marys Onkel zu sein. Mehr und mehr wird Mary in die Machenschaften der Männer verstrickt und gerät in Lebensgefahr. Welches undurchsichtige Spiel treibt dabei Joss‘ jüngerer Bruder Jem, in den Mary sich verliebt hat?

Moving between Britain and Jamaica The bonds of family reconstructs the world of commerce, consumption and cultivation sustained through an extended engagement with the business of slavery. Transatlantic slavery was both shaping of and shaped by the dynamic networks of family that established Britain's Caribbean empire. Tracing the activities of a single extended family - the Hibberts - this book explores how slavery impacted on the social, cultural, economic and political landscape of Britain. It is a history of trade, colonisation, enrichment and the tangled web of relations that gave meaning to the transatlantic world. The Hibberts's trans-generational story imbricates the personal and the political, the private and the public, the local and the global. It is both the intimate narrative of a family and an analytical frame through which to explore Britain's history and legacies of slavery.

Wer „reif für die Insel“ ist, denkt meist an schneeweiße Strände, Palmen und türkisblaues Meer. Nichts wird so sehr mit Urlaub assoziiert wie die Insel, ein Stück Erde, umgeben von Wasser. Sie ist Fluchtpunkt, irdisches Paradies. Sie weckt Hoffnungen, Sehnsüchte, Träume, Abenteuerlust. Inseln sind Orte des Glücks. Capri, Crab Key, Jamaica, Island, Kreta, Lanzarote oder die Taka-Tuka-Insel: bei einer geschätzten Anzahl von über 130.000 Inseln ist es nicht immer leicht, die eigene Insel zu finden. Die in diesem Band versammelten Autorinnen und Autoren haben „ihre“ Insel gefunden: Robert Gernhardt, James Hamilton-Paterson, Judith Hermann, Patricia Highsmith, Wladimir Kaminer, D.H. Lawrence, Anaïs Nin, Cees Nooteboom, George Sand und viele andere.

There he stands, the man the whole of Spain cheered, before whom the most catholic regents Isabella and Ferdinand rose to their feet, his eyes on his ship Capitana, devoured by shipworm, stranded off Jamaica. Some of the crew mutiny, the locals can no longer be fobbed off with glass beads, the Spanish on the nearby island of Hispaniola do not help, the world doesn‘t want anything to do with him, the demanding whinger. He, Christopher Columbus, is a John Lackland, a king without land, a conqueror without conquest. Between fiction and historical truth, Wolfgang Wissler recounts the legendary sailor‘s last expedition in an entirely new way – and what a story it is!

This collection sets out a range of perspectives on the challenges that the Caribbean is facing today, showing how the arts hold a crucial role in forging a more sustainable Caribbean community. It forcefully attests to the view that visual art in particular has a specific contribution to make and that this in turn means striving to foster a sustainable arts community that can contend with an environment of uneven infrastructure, opportunity and public awareness. Spanning the scholarly, artistic and professional fields of arts and heritage, this book compares two of the Caribbean's key linguistic regions - the Anglophone and the Dutch - to address the themes of global-local relations, capital, patronage, morality, contestation, sustainability and knowledge exchange. The result is a milestone of collaboration from diverse global settings of the Caribbean and its diaspora, including Jamaica, the Bahamas, Barbados, Suriname, Curaçao, the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Germany and the United States.
