"Kein Volk der Welt hat erlebt, was dem deutschen "1923"-Erlebnis entspricht", schrieb Sebastian Haffner im englischen Exil, und Stefan Zweig befand, dass die Geschichte noch "nie eine ähnliche Tollhauszeit in solchen riesigen Proportionen produziert" habe. Volker Ullrich erzählt auf breiter Quellenbasis die Geschichte dieses Jahrs am Abgrund, das in manchem auf fatale Weise an die heutige Gegenwart erinnert.

Story
Harald Jähners große Mentalitätsgeschichte der Nachkriegszeit zeigt die Deutschen in ihrer ganzen Vielfalt: etwa den "Umerzieher" Alfred Döblin, der das Vertrauen seiner Landsleute zu gewinnen suchte, oder Beate Uhse, die mit ihrem "Versandgeschäft für Ehehygiene" alle Vorstellungen von Sittlichkeit infrage stellte; aber auch die namenlosen Schwarzmarkthändler oder die stilsicheren Hausfrauen am Nierentisch der anbrechenden Fünfziger. Das gesellschaftliche Panorama eines Jahrzehnts, das entscheidend war für die Deutschen und in vielem ganz anders, als wir oft glauben.

Die letzte Woche des Dritten Reiches hat begonnen. Hitler ist tot, aber der Krieg noch nicht zu Ende. Alles scheint zum Stillstand zu kommen, und doch ist alles in atemloser Bewegung. Volker Ullrich schildert Tag für Tag diese "zeitlose Zeit" und entführt den Leser in eine zusammenbrechende Welt voller Dramatik und Hoffnung, Gewalt und Angst. Sein Buch ist eine unvergessliche Zeitreise in den Untergang.

Story
Gerade aus der Haft entlassen, möchte sich Franz Biberkopf eine neue Existenz aufbauen. Doch den Lockungen der Großstadt kann er nicht widerstehen und wird schon bald wieder in kriminelle Machenschaften verwickelt, die ihn fast an den Galgen bringen. Das bewegende Schicksal des Arbeiters Franz Biberkopf, der sich in einer Welt des Verbrechens verirrt, steht exemplarisch für den Kampf des kleinen Mannes in einer unsicher gewordenen Welt. Döblin schuf damit einen Jahrhundertroman, der häufig mit "Ulysses" verglichen wird. Hannes Messemer liest diese atemlose, polyphone Symphonie der Großstadt bravourös ein.

Was bleibt von uns, wenn alles, was wir kannten, untergeht? Der große Roman über Verlust und Neuanfang. Die Wolken hängen schwer über der Geest, als Ingwer Feddersen, 49, in sein Heimatdorf zurückkehrt. Er hat hier noch etwas gutzumachen. Großmutter Ella ist dabei, ihren Verstand zu verlieren, Großvater Sönke hält in seinem alten Dorfkrug stur die Stellung. Er hat die besten Zeiten hinter sich, genau wie das ganze Dorf. Wann hat dieser Niedergang begonnen? In den 1970ern, als nach der Flurbereinigung erst die Hecken und dann die Vögel verschwanden?

Story
All of Earth’s oceans, from the equator to the poles, are a single engine powered by sunlight, driving huge flows of energy, water, life, and raw materials. In The Blue Machine, physicist and oceanographer Helen Czerski illustrates the mechanisms behind this defining feature of our planet, voyaging from the depths of the ocean floor to tropical coral reefs, estuaries that feed into shallow coastal seas, and Arctic ice floes. Timely, elegant, and passionately argued, The Blue Machine presents a fresh perspective on what it means to be a citizen of an ocean planet.

Fünfzehn Jahre wie ein Jahrhundert – ein aufregend neuer Blick auf das kurze Leben zwischen den Kriegen. Deutschland 1918. Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs, Revolution, Sieg der Demokratie.

Als es Mitte der Zwanziger auch wirtschaftlich aufwärts geht, wird Deutschland ein anderes Land. Frauen erobern die Rennpisten und Tennisplätze, gehen abends alleine aus, schneiden sich die Haare kurz und denken nicht ans Heiraten.

Beginning in the second century A.D. at the apex of the Pax Romana, Gibbon traces the arc of decline and complete destruction through the centuries across Europe and the Mediterranean. It is a thrilling and cautionary tale of splendor and ruin, of faith and hubris, and of civilization and barbarism. Follow along as Christianity overcomes paganism... before itself coming under intense pressure from Islam.

Als Jean-Paul Sartre mit Simone de Beauvoir im Kranzler-Eck in Berlin Käsekuchen isst, Henry Miller und Anaïs Nin wilde Nächte in Paris erleben, F. Scott Fitzgerald und Frida Kahlo sich in leidenschaftliche Affären stürzen, fliehen Bertolt Brecht und Helene Weigel ins Exil. Genau das ist die Zeit, in der die Nazis die Macht in Deutschland ergreifen, Bücher verbrennen und die Gewalt gegen die Juden beginnt. 1933 enden die "Goldenen Zwanziger" mit einer Vollbremsung.

Editorial reviews
Nur wenigen Historikern gelingt es, mit Sachbüchern zu Bestsellerautoren zu werden. Christopher Clark hingegen schafft dies mit seinem Monumentalwerk „Die Schlafwandler. Wie Europa in den Ersten Weltkrieg zog“. Sprecher Frank Arnold gelingt es darüber hinaus noch, ein packendes Hörbuch zu inszenieren, das dich von Anfang an in seinen Bann zieht.
Die Geschichte beleuchtet die Schuldfrage, wie es zum Ersten Weltkrieg kommen konnte, völlig neu. Kenntnisreich und informativ werden die Interessen und Motive der Großmächte betrachtet und die politischen Akteure mit all ihrem Misstrauen, ihrer Überheblichkeit und ihren nationalistischen Bestrebungen dargestellt.
Frank Arnold glückt es, das umfangreiche Historienwerk spannend zu lesen und das Thema somit anschaulich zu vermitteln. Bei dir kommt garantiert keine Langeweile auf und das Gehörte bleibt im Kopf. So macht Geschichtsunterricht Spaß!
Audible wünscht gute Unterhaltung!
Publisher's summary
"Eine Wucht." Süddeutsche Zeitung.
Lange Zeit galt es als ausgemacht, dass das deutsche Kaiserreich wegen seiner Großmachtträume die Hauptverantwortung am Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkriegs trug. In seinem bahnbrechenden neuen Werk kommt der renommierte Historiker und Bestsellerautor Christopher Clark (Preußen) zu einer anderen Einschätzung. Clark beschreibt minutiös die Interessen und Motivationen der wichtigsten politischen Akteure in den europäischen Metropolen und zeichnet das Bild einer komplexen Welt, in der gegenseitiges Misstrauen, Fehleinschätzungen, Überheblichkeit, Expansionspläne und nationalistische Bestrebungen zu einer Situation führten, in der ein Funke genügte, den Krieg auszulösen, dessen verheerende Folgen kaum jemand abzuschätzen vermochte. Schon jetzt zeigt sich, dass Die Schlafwandler eine der wichtigsten Neuerscheinungen zum 100. Jahrestag des Ausbruchs des Ersten Weltkriegs sein wird.

World War II is the defining conflict of the 20th century, one that created a line in the sands of history dividing the pre-war and post-war eras. In this epoch-defining conflict lies another definitive moment: the invasion of a 50-mile stretch of coast in Normandy, France, on June 6, 1944. This battle, also known as D-Day, was the pivot point of the war in Europe. Its success led to a nearly yearlong, bloody campaign that saw the liberation of France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands, followed by the final defeat of Hitler’s Third Reich.

You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Millions of words have poured forth about man's trip to the moon, but until now few people have had a sense of the most engrossing side of the adventure: namely, what went on in the minds of the astronauts themselves - in space, on the moon, and even during certain odysseys on earth. It is this, the inner life of the astronauts, that Tom Wolfe describes with his almost uncanny empathetic powers that made The Right Stuff a classic.

The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

Finally a book that makes sense
Congrats are in order. Chris Clark has contributed a giant historical effort that provides the reasons for WWI, something that has puzzled me for the last five decades.
