Biography & True StoriesMay 2025Mrs Dalloway
Biography of a novel
by Mark Hussey
A compelling biography of one of the most celebrated novels in the English language. The fourth and best-known of Virginia Woolf's novels, Mrs Dalloway is a modernist masterpiece that has remained popular since its publication in 1925. Its dual narratives follow a day in the life of wealthy housewife Clarissa Dalloway and shell-shocked war veteran Septimus Warren Smith, capturing their inner worlds with a vividness that has rarely been equalled. Mrs Dalloway: Biography of a novel offers new readers a lively introduction to this enduring classic, while providing Woolf lovers with a wealth of information about the novel's writing, publication and reception. It follows Woolf's process from the first stirrings in her diary through her struggles to create what was quickly recognised as a major advance in prose fiction. It then traces the novel's remarkable legacy to the present day. Woolf wrote in her diary that she wanted her novel 'to give life & death, sanity & insanity. to criticise the social system, & to show it at work, at its most intense.' Mrs Dalloway: Biography of a novel reveals how she achieved this ambition, creating a book that will be read by generations to come.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2005Amy Tan
by Bella Adams, John Thieme
This is the most comprehensive study to date of Amy Tan's work. It offers close readings of her texts in the context of broader debates about the representation of identity, history and reality. In contrast with Tan's own American-born narrators, and mainstream critics, Bella Adams's study looks beyond the stereotypes which appear in Tan's books, and explores the ways in which Chinese immigrants and their American relatives struggle to understand each others 'best qualities' via the Chinese tradition of the 'talk story'. She emphasises Tan's American narrators' process of becoming Chinese and discovering 'real China', and the significance of the ironic staging of these moments. Students will find this study both accessible and probing, and scholars will welcome its contribution to our understanding of a significant figure in contemporary literature. ;

PNR: La Bella Vita
by Berg, Sibylle
Revolution machen kann (fast) jeder. Eine neue Gesellschaftsordnung aufbauen: das schaffen nur ein paar Nerds. Und Sibylle Berg. Nach einer gelungenen Revolution, die das Finanz- und Gesellschaftssystem sanft beseitigt hat, wird sie endlich errichtet: die schöne neue Welt nach dem Kapitalismus. In dieser Welt ist alles verschwunden, woran die Menschen zu glauben gelernt hatten, in der jeder erstaunt bemerkt – dass es möglich ist, ohne Angst zu existieren und ohne sein Leben an einen Arbeitgeber zu verkaufen. Vom Wohnen bis zur Landwirtschaft, von der Art Urlaub zu machen bis zu der Frage: Wohin mit der Bürokratie? erfindet sich Europa neu. Aber: Was interessiert Don Europa? Sie ist in Italien, dem besten Ort, um auf Ruinen etwas Neues zu errichten.
