Story
Zu Beginn des fünften Teils des Romanzyklus betrachtet der Erzähler Nick Jenkins die zerstörten Überreste seiner einstigen Stammkneipe "Mortimer". Er erinnert sich an hellere Tage. An Tage, die er mit Künstlerfreunden in diesem Lokal, in Casonavas chinesischem Restaurant oder im Theater verbrachte. An die Zeit, in der seine Frau Isobel ihr erstes Kind erwartete und an den Abschied von Erridge, Isobels Bruder, der in den Spanischen Bürgerkrieg zog. Durch die vielen Partys, Dinners und Theaterabende schimmern bereits die ersten Vorboten des kommenden Kriegs.

Story
Frankfurter Hauptbahnhof, Bahnsteige, Gleise, die Eisenbahn nach Giessen. Der Anblick der Züge lässt innere Bilder aufsteigen. Der Erzähler nimmt uns mit auf Bahnfahrten mit der Mutter in das zerstörte Gießen, noch vor der Währungsreform. Der Fünfjährige kommt vom Dorf und ist dort das Flüchtlingskind. Gießen, das heißt Trümmerlandschaften und Schwarzmarkt, beängstigend und aufregend zugleich. Zu Hause lernt die Schwester schreiben, liest der Vater Faust, näht die Mutter ununterbrochen.

Story
Es ist nicht immer leicht, ein Kind zu sein. Das weiß niemand besser als Nils Holgersson. Die Eltern sind unzufrieden, dauernd gibt es Streit, und wohin man mit der eigenen schlechten Laune soll, weiß man auch nicht so recht. Richtig ärgerlich wird es aber erst, als Nils seine Wut an einem Wichtel auslässt. Der zaubert den frechen Jungen zur Strafe auf Däumling-Größe klein. Als dann auch noch Hausgans Marten vom Hof der Holgerssons abhauen will, schmeißt sich der jetzt sehr kleine Nils Marten an den Hals – und findet sich plötzlich mitten im Abenteuer und in einer Schar von Wildgänsen wieder!

Story
Tessa Ensler ist die auffälligste unter den jungen Strafverteidiger:innen Londons. Sie entstammt nicht einer jener angesehenen Familien mit old money. Sie hat sich aus einem Klima häuslicher Gewalt befreit und aus der Arbeiter:innenklasse hochgearbeitet. Heute verteidigt sie unter anderem Männer, die wegen sexueller Übergriffe angeklagt sind. Ihre Art, Zeuginnen – die mutmaßlichen Opfer – ins Kreuzverhör zu nehmen, ist legendär und wird zu ihrer Eintrittskarte in den inner circle der Anwaltskammern.

Story
In einer auf Zellengröße geschrumpften Welt gewinnt jedes Detail an Bedeutung: die geschriebenen und ungeschriebenen Regeln des Alltags, die offenen und versteckten Erniedrigungen, die großen und kleinen Träume. Pointiert und ironisch, mit bitterem, aber nie verbittertem Humor erzählt Maxim Znak vom Alltag in der belarussischen Gefängniswelt, von Szenen des Widerstands und der Selbstbehauptung, vom leisen und lauten Verrücktwerden.

Story
Abramowitsch hat eine, der Emir von Abu Dhabi auch, Jeff Bezos sowieso: Superyachten sind Ausweis der Zugehörigkeit zum Club der "lucky few". Sie ermöglichen grenzenlose Mobilität und exklusiven Geltungskonsum. Zugleich sind sie schwimmende Umweltsünden. Sie verbrennen Unmengen Treibstoff, ihre Anker zerstören kostbare Flora. Und sie sind Spielfelder obszöner Ungleichheit: Während ihre Besitzer zu den einflussreichsten Menschen der Welt gehören, ist das Bordpersonal oft Willkür und Rechtlosigkeit ausgeliefert.

Im Frühsommer 1979 folgte der französische Star-Philosoph der Einladung eines jungen Dozenten namens Simeon Wade an dessen Hochschule in Kalifornien. Wade überredete sein Idol zu einem Death-Valley-Ausflug, inklusive LSD-Trip. Foucault selbst beschrieb diesen Tag, an dem er zum ersten Mal Erfahrungen mit der Droge machte, als "eine der wichtigsten Erfahrungen meines Lebens". Aus der Begegnung entstand eine langjährige Freundschaft, die sich in einem Briefwechsel niedergeschlagen hat.

Es ist 1995, die Erzählerin ist 16, lebt auf dem Dorf, hat knallrot gefärbte Haare und nie genug Geld. Sie raucht heimlich die geklauten Zigaretten ihrer Oma und macht gerne mit Jungs rum. Dann liest ihre Mutter heimlich ihr Tagebuch und alle nennen sie auf einmal Schlampe. Sie will nur noch eins: Raus hier! Weg von den Rentner-Nachbar:innen, dem Geläster im Schulbus, dem fetten Fahrlehrer, dem Kleingeist, der Enge, dem Mief: Raus aus Salzgitter! Am besten in eine große Stadt ziehen und Schauspielerin werden, so eine richtige auf der Bühne.

Martin Kreutzer will nach oben. Als Volontär einer überregionalen Berliner Tageszeitung muss er sich jedoch beweisen, denn Ruhm und Reichtum kriegt man nicht einfach geschenkt. Lukas Moretti war sein Kommilitone und schon damals in München ein Star unter den Studenten, doch inzwischen ist ihm mit seinem Mix aus performativer Kunst und euphorischen Elektropartys der internationale Durchbruch gelungen. Martin verspricht seiner Redaktion ein Exklusivinterview mit Moretti. So richtig kennt er ihn zwar nicht, aber was ist schon eine kleine Lüge zur Rettung der Karriere.

Story
Eine Frau bekommt eine Nachricht auf Facebook. Sie ist Journalistin und Denis ein Bewunderer, dessen Freundschaftsanfrage sie angenommen hat. Zögerlich lässt sie sich auf den Austausch ein und es beginnt eine Eskalation, über die sie von Anfang an keine Gewalt hat: Seine erst anbiedernd verehrenden Nachrichten werden immer aufdringlicher, schließlich offen sexistisch und rassistisch. Als sie sich von ihm distanziert, beginnt Denis, sie zu demütigen, ihr bei der Arbeit nachzustellen und Gerüchte über sie zu verbreiten.

März 1944. Die deutsche Wehrmacht besetzt Ungarn. Als Jude wird der gerade mal 20-jährige Carl Laszlo mit seiner Familie aus seiner Heimatstadt Pécs nach Auschwitz-Birkenau deportiert. Dort werden 45 seiner Familienmitglieder sofort bei ihrer Ankunft in den Gaskammern ermordet. Doch Auschwitz ist erst der Anfang. Bis zu seiner Befreiung durch heranrückende sowjetische Truppen im Frühjahr 1945 durchlebt Laszlo die Hölle der nationalsozialistischen KZ-Vernichtungsmaschinerie in vier weiteren Lagern: Sachsenhausen, Buchenwald, Ohrdruf und Theresienstadt.

Eine alte Stadt, die über Nacht von einer alptraumhaften Flut heimgesucht wird. Es ist Nacht und er kann nicht einschlafen. Auf das Dach schlägt der Regen. Irgendwann steht er auf und geht die Treppe hinunter. Kniehoch steht das Wasser im unteren Stock. Schuhe, Kleider, Kissen schwimmen darin. Aus der Ferne ist ein Hubschrauber zu hören. Er zieht sich Stiefel an und geht hinaus. Eine Frau hat sich auf ein Floß gerettet.

Story
Unsere gesamte Kulturgeschichte ist durchdrungen von Darstellungen idealtypischer Paarbeziehungen, die – direkt oder unterschwellig – eine weibliche Unterlegenheit inszenieren. Es sind Bilder, die suggerieren, dass die Frau nur durch Unterwerfung romantische Erfüllung erlangen kann. Diese gesellschaftliche Konditionierung impft Frauen und Männern die Überzeugung ein, dass Männern alles zusteht, während von Frauen Selbstlosigkeit und Hingabe erwartet werden. Durch das erzwungene Leugnen eigener Interessen, Bedürfnisse und Wünsche wird das Selbstvertrauen der Frauen untergraben.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College―Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.
