The Goose Fritz - Sergei Lebedev - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Goose Fritz - Sergei Lebedev - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

From the author of Untraceable , a novel about history both personal and political, and the mysteries of the past. The Goose Fritz tells the story of a young Russian named Kirill, the sole survivor of a once numerous clan of German origin, who delves relentlessly into the unresolved past. His ancestor, Balthasar Schwerdt, migrated to the Russian Empire in the early 1800s, bringing with him the practice of alternative medicine and becoming captive to an erratic nobleman who had supplied dwarves, hunchbacks from Africa, and magicians to entertain Catherine the Great. Kirill''s investigation takes us through centuries of turmoil during which none of the German''s nine children or their descendants can escape their adoptive country''s cruel fate. Intent on uncovering buried mysteries, Kirill searches archives and cemeteries across Europe, while pressing witnesses for keys to understanding. The Goose Fritz illuminates both personal and political history in a passion-filled family saga about an often confounding country that has long fascinated the world.

What the Taliban Told Me - Ian Fritz - Bog - Simon & Schuster - Plusbog.dk

What the Taliban Told Me - Ian Fritz - Bog - Simon & Schuster - Plusbog.dk

An “essential” (Kevin Maurer, #1 New York Times bestselling author) memoir of a young Air Force linguist coming of age in a war that is lost. When Ian Fritz joined the Air Force at eighteen, he did so out of necessity. He hadn’t been accepted into colleges thanks to an indifferent high school career. He’d too often slept through his classes as he worked long hours at a Chinese restaurant to help pay the bills for his trailer-dwelling family in Lake City, Florida. But the Air Force recognizes his potential and sends him to the elite Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California, to learn Dari and Pashto, the main languages of Afghanistan. By 2011, Fritz was an airborne cryptologic linguist and one of only a tiny number of people in the world trained to do this job on low-flying gunships. He monitors communications on the ground and determines in real time which Afghans are Taliban and which are innocent civilians. This eavesdropping is critical to supporting Special Forces units on the ground, but there is no training to counter the emotional complexity that develops as you listen to people’s most intimate conversations over the course of two tours, Fritz listens to the Taliban for hundreds of hours, all over the country night and day, in moments of peace and in the middle of battle. What he hears teaches him about the people of Afghanistan—Taliban and otherwise—the war, and himself. Fritz’s fluency is his greatest asset to the military, yet it becomes the greatest liability to his own commitment to the cause. Both proud of his service and in despair that he is instrumental in destroying the voices that he hears, What the Taliban Told Me is a “fraught, moving” ( Kirkus Reviews ) coming-of-age memoir and a reckoning with our twenty years of war in Afghanistan.

Tingenes tyngde - Marianne Fritz - Bog - Atlanten - Plusbog.dk

Året er 1945. En tyk dyne af smog ligger over byen Donaublau, hvor den gravide Berta venter på, at hendes forlovede vender tilbage fra fronten. Men i stedet for Rudolf træder hans ven Wilhelm ind ad døren og overbringer Berta nyheden om kærestens død. Hun gifter sig med den hjemvendte soldat og får et barn mere med ham. Livet bliver dog mere og mere som en ond drøm for Berta, og tilværelsen tynger alle ned, særligt de to små børn, som hun ender med at befri fra ”tingenes tyngde”. Først på en psykiatrisk institution finder hun beskyttelse mod livets sår. Tingenes tyngde af østrigske Marianne Fritz (1948-2007) er en kort og brutal fortælling om efterkrigstidens hykleri og grusomhed leveret med mesterlig tragikomik. Romanen udkom første gang i 1978 og modtog samme år Robert Walser-prisen.

Martin A. Hansen og kristendommen - Ole Juul - Bog - Eksistensen - Plusbog.dk

Martin A. Hansen og kristendommen - Ole Juul - Bog - Eksistensen - Plusbog.dk

Bogen gennemgår en række noveller af forfatteren Martin A. Hansen med fokus på kristendommens betydning i hans værker, bl.a. ”Høstgildet”, ”Agerhønen” og ”Den retfærdige.” Hvert kapitel er forsynet med spørgsmål som oplæg til fordybelse, samtale og diskussion. Martin A. Hansen havde igennem sit forfatterskab og voksenliv et anspændt forhold til kirken som institution, men han var bevidst om, at i det evangelium, som kirken er sat til at forkynde, ligger begrundelsen for et etisk og medmenneskeligt engagement. Han var derfor optaget af at frigøre evangeliets inderste kerne og omsætte det i et forståeligt og vedkommende sprog. Det lykkedes især i novellerne. Martin A. Hansen og kristendommen er tænkt som en hjælp til de studiekredse, der ønsker at beskæftige sig med Martin A. Hansen og kristendommen. Bogen rummer en grundig gennemgang og analyse af ti udvalgte noveller, som hver for sig belyser forfatterens særlige kristendomssyn. – Hvert kapitel er forsynet med spørgsmål som oplæg til samtale og diskussion. Ole Juul , f. 1949, forfatter og foredragsholder, cand. theol. og tidl. sognepræst i Ødum-Hadbjerg pastorat, Aarhus Stift. Tidl. formand for Landsforeningen Martin A. Hansen.
