    Heroes and Villains , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 389min
    A modern fable, a postapocalyptic romance, a Gothic horror story: Angela Carter's genre-defying fantasia Heroes and Villains. Sharp-eyed Marianne lives in a white tower made of steel and concrete with her father and the other Professors. Outside, where the land is thickly wooded and wild beasts roam, live the Barbarians, who raid and pillage in order to survive. Marianne is strictly forbidden to leave her civilised world but, fascinated by these savage outsiders, decides to escape. There, beyond the wire fences, she will discover a decaying paradise, encounter the tattooed Barbarian boy Jewel and go beyond the darkest limits of her imagination. Playful, sensuous, violent and gripping, Heroes and Villains is an ambiguous and deliriously rich blend of postapocalyptic fiction, Gothic fantasy, literary allusion and twisted romance. Angela Carter (1940-92) was born in Eastbourne and later evacuated to live with her grandmother in Yorkshire. She read English at Bristol University and, after escaping an early marriage, went to live in Japan for a number of years. She wrote nine novels, which blend fantasy, science fiction and Gothic, and is often referred to as a writer of magical realism. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rosie Akerman.

    Writ on Water (eBook, ePUB)
    This eloquent book draws on the author's responses to a wide range of extraordinary films-"long takes" on Altman's Nashville, Godard's Hail Mary, Makavejev's WR: Mysteries of the Organism, and von Sternberg's Blonde Venus, as well as "short takes" on films by Jean Rouch, Chris Marker, Chantal Akerman, Ross McElwee, Michelangelo Antonioni, Michael Haneke, and Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne. Charles Warren's masterful close readings blend profound philosophical reflections with a treasure trove of literary and artistic references to place film, in its relations to other arts, as one of the greatest aesthetic forms. Collectively, these essays offer an original and powerful statement on the nature of film and the intimate relation of what the author calls "film imagination" to our lives as human beings in the world. This important and much-needed book is no less than a celebration and affirmation of the very discipline of film criticism. One is left with one's appetite for film refreshed.

    Watchmen - Die Wächter
    Eine alternative Realität im Jahre 1985 in New York: Die USA haben mit Hilfe des mutierten Übermenschen Dr. Manhattan (Billy Crudup) den Vietnamkrieg gewonnen. Richard Nixon tritt zum fünften Mal seine Amtszeit an und Russland ist immer noch der stärkste Gegner, mit dem ein Krieg bevorsteht. Der Konzern von Adrian Veidt (Matthew Goode), der wohl klügste Mann der Welt, beherrscht die Welt-Wirtschaft. Dr. Manhattan und Veidt gehörten einst den "Minutemen" an, einer Gruppe von sechs Superhelden, die in den 1970er Jahren durch die Regierung in den Zwangsruhestand geschickt wurden.Als der inzwischen für die Regierung arbeitende Comedian (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) ermordet wird, warnt der soziopathisch veranlagte Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley) seine ehemaligen Mitstreiter. Für ihn ist der Mord am Comedian nur der Anfang - seiner Meinung nach ist der Mörder hinter ihnen allen her.Rorschach ist der letzte aktive Superheld der sechs "Masken" und der Einzige, der trotz Verbots weiterhin das Verbrechen bekämpft. Sein Freund, der verweichlichte Ex-Kollege Dan Dreiberg alias Nite Owl II (Patrick Wilson) und auch Laurie Jupiter alias Silk Spectre II (Malin Akerman) zweifeln zunächst an seiner Theorie. Doch nach und nach wird auch ihnen klar, dass sie selbst das Ziel der Vernichtung sind. Doch wenn die Watchmen tot sind, wer bewacht dann uns?

    Pity Isn't an Option: Cozenage, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 471min
    Seventeen year-old Jonas Norton is trying to come to terms with what his blood disorder has robbed from him, including his two most favorite things: basketball, and competing in Hatchet Racket, Wanless' annual hatchet-throwing contest. The facts that his father works constantly to pay for his blood tests and Jonas can actually see the disappointment in his eyes for being such a failure only make matters worse. And even worse than all of that? Jonas' own twin brother, Micah, is perfectly healthy and becoming quite the basketball player himself. Also, Hattie, the girl Jonas has loved for forever? She has no idea how he feels.Sixteen year-old Hattie Akerman lives down the hill from Jonas. Though her father, Heath, tries to hide his lack of mental clarity behind the bottle and she's pretty much given up on having any kind of relationship with him, she would still rather her younger sister, Lucy, not have to deal with the consequences of his behavior. Hattie helps her mother by baking food to sell at Market and looking out for Lucy. No matter what the rest of the town says about her crazy father, Jonas sticks up for them. He is, by far, her very best friend.As if things aren't complicated enough already, Heath and Micah are unexpectedly drafted into President Kendrick's army (an army from which no one ever returns) just days before Thanksgiving. When Heath disappears instead of arriving at the Meeting Place to check in, Hattie and Jonas decide they've had enough, and take matters into their own hands. And though nothing could have prepared them for what happens next, Hattie and Jonas learn that hope can be seen in every situation. You just have to know where to look. ungekürzt. Language: English.
