This tradition is so entrenched in Icelandic society that it feels like it must have been around forever. Not so. It began during World War II, when there were strict limitations on imports, though for some reason the restrictions on imported paper were less severe. The Icelanders were flush with affluence at this time — WWII was referred to as the “blessed war” since the British and later American occupation had brought jobs, and therefore money — but they had few things on which to spend their unprecedented wealth.Except, well, paper.

The Kelly Green Ballroom , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
Your personal space is a sanctuary in this beguiling hotel we know only as The Grand, where we are swept away on a course that pulsates like jazz music or paint on canvas. Writing poetry on the wallpaper in his room as a form of therapy, taking long walks, and even sleeping naked in the garden, we journey with this poet in metaphor and subconscious rhythms in a mysterious residence of beauty, while something dangerous and unstable lurks in the world outside. We are able to relate to this space of wanting harmony, loneliness, and uncertainty. Captivating in it's poetic style, Calloway is profound with his novella in his minimalist approach. Multicolored with intrigue and romance, our poet paints with great amounts of affection. Just as some guests of The Grand never want to leave, you may find yourself feeling the same. ungekürzt.

Shoedog , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min
Like the kind of cars they don't make anymore and the kind of songs they don't sing, the novels of George Pelecanos have the style, rhythm and muscle of classics. Shoedog is vintage Pelecanos: a tale that throbs with soul and pulsates with menace. Constantine was born in D.C., and has been traveling the world ever since-finding everything but a home. Randolph has stayed in this city every day, selling shoes in a downtown store, taking care of ladies who lie about their sizes and sometimes fit him into their beds. Now these two strangers, one white, one black, have come together in a criminal's audacious plan. With five partners and the hit ready to go down, Constantine doesn't understand the treacheries, feuds and fantasies swirling around him-and he's fallen for a woman who only doubles his risk. But Randolph, a self-confessed "shoedog," can smell trouble a mile away. And when the shooting starts, he'll give Constantine a chance to live-or die where he was born. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Thinner , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 607min
The unpause-able novel of one man's quest to find the source of his nightmare and to reverse it before he becomes...nothing at all. This number-one national best seller from Stephen King, writing as Richard Bachman, "pulsates with evil...it will have you on the edge of your seat" (Publishers Weekly). Billy Halleck commits vehicular manslaughter when his lack of attention results in the death of an old gypsy lady on the street. Overweight Halleck is a lawyer with connections, though, and he gets off with a slap on the wrist. After the trial, the victim's ancient father curses him with a single word: "thinner". Shedding weight by the week, Halleck is desperate enough for one last gamble...one that will lead him to a nightmare showdown with the forces of evil melting his flesh away. With an introduction by Stephen King on "The Importance of Being Bachman", Thinner is a novel of "undeniable suspense" (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution) and "genuine chills" (Kirkus Reviews). ungekürzt.

The Flavour of Spice: Journeys, Stories, Recipes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 551min
A book that celebrates spices, and the integral ways in which they shape what we eat. Throughout a career spanning 30 years, well-known food critic and writer (and little-known collector of spice grinders of eclectic origin) Marryam H. Reshii has had a relentless love affair with spices. Such has been her passion that she has travelled across the country and to various corners of the world - crushing, grinding, frying and tasting - in a bid to understand every aspect of these magnificent ingredients. The result is The Flavour of Spice, a zesty narrative that brings together stories about the origins of spices and how they evolved in the cuisines we know and love; colourful anecdotes gleaned from encounters with plantation owners and spice merchants; and beloved family recipes from chefs and home cooks. From the market yards of Guntur, India's chilli capital, to the foothills of Sri Lanka in search of `true cinnamon, and from the hillsides of Sikkim where black cardamom thrives to the saffron markets in the holy city of Mashhad, Iran - this heady account pulsates with exciting tales of travel and discovery, and an infectious love for the ingredients that add so much punch to our cuisines. ungekürzt.

In the new novel by the number-one New York Times best-selling "queen of paranormal romance", a wounded warrior and a woman on the run find salvation, passion, and unimaginable danger in the ghostly darkness of the Carpathian Mountains.

Andre Boroi has spent centuries battling the undead, holding out against the dark with honor. But now, gravely wounded by master vampire Costin Popescu, Andre will be easy to track - his spilled blood marking the killing trail for Popescu and his hungry band of underlings.
