Book excerpt: With her debut memoir "A Tiny Isle in the Northern Sea" Katja Just excited many readers for Hallig Hooge, the tiny marsh island in the middle of the North Frisian Sea. Born in Munich and living and working on Hooge for almost twenty years, she is considered by many to be "the ambassador of Hallig Hooge" and is tirelessly working for her adopted home. What does the future have in the store for Hooge? Climate change, environmental pollution and structural changes in agriculture and tourism do not stop at the Hallig isles. And what will the upcoming mayoral election bring - should Katja Just really let herself be nominated? Once again, the author takes her readers to her haven in the rough sea, to her little piece of the world with the huge sky. The bestselling author tells very personal stories about challenges and new tasks, about saying goodbye and a new roommate, about traditions and searching for traces of lost heritages.

This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young, successful woman wants out - out of her hectic city life and into the quiet life on an alp in the Swiss mountains. Over three summers, Katharina Afflerbach learns what it means to lead a life determined by animals, physical labor and wind and weather: milking goats at half past five in the morning, bringing cattle to pasture, making cheese, mowing hay and felling trees. From sunrise to sunset there is work to do, everyone must be able to rely on each other, and work and life go hand in hand. While the pull of the mountains has Katharina firmly under control, she loses her little brother in a tragic accident three weeks before her third summer in the Alps. Between mountain and valley she seeks and finds comfort in nature, with the animals and the close, cordial alpine community. She comes back strengthened, with a new view of her life and her future. This is a book that encourages you to break new ground and discover exciting sides to yourself.

Download or read book Anxious Journeys written by Karin Baumgartner and published by Camden House (NY). This book was released on 2019 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book to offer a cutting-edge discussion of contemporary travel writing in German, Anxious Journeys looks both at classical tropes of travel writing and its connection to current debates. The rich contemporary literature of travel has been the focus of numerous recent publications in English that seek to understand how travel narratives, with their distinctive representations of identities, places, and cultures, respond to today's globalized, high-speed world characterized by the dual mass movements of tourism and migration. Yet a corresponding cutting-edge discussion of twenty-first-century travel writing in German has until now been missing. The fourteen essays in Anxious Journeys redress this situation. They analyze texts by leading authors such as Felicitas Hoppe, Christoph Ransmayr, Julie Zeh, Navid Kermani, Judith Schalansky, Ilija Trojanow, and others, as well as topics such as Turkish-German travelogues and the relationship of comics to travel writing. The volume examines how writers engage with classic tropes of travel writing and how they react to the current sense of crisis and belatedness. It also links travel to ongoing debates about the role of the nation, mass migration, and the European project, as well as to Germany's place in the larger world order.

Download or read book From Lederhosen to Jeans written by Armin K. Wendt and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-12-04 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Armin's exodus from the tyranny and destruction of war-tom Germany to the liberating shores of America is a quintessential story of the 20th century. He regales the reader with riveting recounts of living through the Allied fire bombings that defeated fascist Germany and the dramatic fight for survival in post-apocalyptic Europe. This is an enthralling, entertaining read about an immigrant's first impressions of America, told with a self-effacing and deprecating sense of humor. I heartily recommend the jaunty travails extolled in: From Lederhosen to Jeans: A Sweet and Sour Kraut's Journey to America. John Large, Ph.D. Asst. Professor, University of South Florida From his childhood in war-ravaged Hamburg to success in America, Armin Wendt takes us along on many journeys - including eluding Russian guards behind the Iron Curtain and encountering banditos in Central-America. Anything but the stereotypical "staid German," Wendt describes his adventures lovingly and compassionately, often in a humorous way. Anecdotes abound throughout, making this book a delightful read.
