    Mutterseelenallein kann man auch sein, wenn die eigene Mutter noch auf Erden weilt. Dies lernte ich bereits in frühester Kindheit. Meine Mutter war eine Narzisstin - und wir, ihre Töchter, mussten als drapierendes Beiwerk ihrer Auftritte herhalten. Herausgeputzt wurden wir, vorgezeigt, doch zu tiefer Verbindung, inniger Liebe war sie unfähig. Wie sehr wünschte ich mir ihre Zuneigung, wie sehr wollte ich ihr vertrauen können, stattdessen enttäuschte sie, manipulierte, zerstörte mit Freude alles um sich herum. In der schlimmsten Stunde meiner Kindheit, als mein Onkel sich an mir verging, verlor ich den letzten Halt, meine geliebte Großmutter. Ein erschütternder Bericht einer ungeliebten Tochter, deren Kampf um die Zuneigung der Mutter sie fast zerstörte.

    Hugo Kendal and his wife, Margaret, finally receive a royal pardon and are permitted at last to return to their beloved homeland. Most of the family warmly welcome the couple and the news that they are soon to become three. However, despite the smiles, Hannah Kendal cannot help but dwell on the threat that Hugo might pose to her husband Simon's position as Master of Heron. She is not alone; Luke, the father of Simon, is acutely aware that Hugo, as his elder brother's son, could declare a more legitimate claim. To complicate matters further, Maria Lessor, a headstrong 12-year-old verging on womanhood, nurtures a secret love for Hugo and seems willing to stop at nothing to claim him as hers. ungekürzt.

    Wisst Ihr noch damals in den Neunzigern? Als wir Bravo Hits auf dem Discman hörten und die ersten SMS mit dem Nokia 3210 verschickten? Raider hieß plötzlich Twix (sonst änderte sich nichts) und Bum Bum-Eis durfte an keinem Kiosk fehlen. Als Mädchen trugen wir Tattooketten, Miss Sixty-Jeans und Buffalos, Jungs griffen zu Baggy Pants, G-Shock und Nike Airs. Wir waren neugierig, konsumfreudig und unbeschwert, und die Zeit verging irgendwie langsamer. Jetzt sind die Neunziger zurück! Von Arschgeweih bis Zackenhaarband sind in diesem Buch 99 Dinge versammelt, die uns damals begeistert oder auch genervt haben. Für alle, die Sätze wie "Geh aus dem Internet, ich will telefonieren" noch im Ohr haben und gerne in Erinnerungen schwelgen.Ausstattung: 4-farbig, ca. 100 farbige Fotos

    No writer is more identified with the modern idea of Christmas than Charles Dickens. In some ways, Dickens helped define the holiday that we now celebrate by immortalizing it as a time of warmth and sharing, with an emphasis on family and friends. Dickens wrote all the stories presented here during the 1850s as contributions to the special Christmas issues of Household Words, the weekly magazine he founded and edited. Included are fictional sketches verging on the autobiographical, recollections of childhood, reflections on past holidays and old friends, as well as tales of misunderstandings and lost opportunities. They reaffirm the virtue of nurturing our traditions, and offer a master storyteller's vision of the real meaning of Christmas. The stories on this audiobook are: A Christmas Tree What Christmas Is as We Grow Older The Poor Relation's Story The Child's Story Nobody's Story The Seven Poor Travellers The Holly Tree ungekürzt.

Eine unvorstellbar lange Zeit verging, bis aus einzelnen Zellen erstaunliche Tiere und schließlich sogar das Wunder "Mensch" hervorgingen.
