For every journey, there’s always at least another hidden one waiting to be discovered—a journey inside another journey, inside a bigger one; like a reverse Matryoshka. Only visible to those ready to close their eyes and open their hearts.

Das Salz zwischen uns–Eine Heimkehr an die KaimauerRike kehrt an die Ostsee zurück, nahe der Schlei. Der Wind schlägt ihr entgegen wie früher: kühl, salzig, unerbittlich. Das Katenhaus. Die Kaimauer. Der Sommer von damals. Alles holt sie ein–ohne Vorwarnung.Und dann steht sie ihr gegenüber: dem Mädchen im Spiegel. Diesmal läuft sie nicht weg. Denn hier, zwischen Salz, Erinnerung und Wahrheit, hat sie noch etwas offen.Geschrieben von Key SchaGesprochen von Kerstin Schmadtke

L’ANGOLA, c’est le pays de mon parrain Kulondi. C’est le pays le plus beau de la terre. Depuis mon enfance, j’ai entendu parler de toutes sortes d’histoires. J’y suis allé trois fois, en Angola. En février 2006, à la fin de mes études d’ingénieur en mécanique, durant un mois, pour le découvrir. En septembre 2010, j'y suis retourné pour un peu moins d’une année. J’ai essayé d’obtenir un visa pour travailler au sein de l’entreprise Auto-Mecãnica établie à Lobito. Et durant le mois de mai 2024, sans vraiment savoir pourquoi, c’est une énigme.

We Only Came to Dream is a memoir, not a novel, of the Counterculture Era (“hippie”). It is often one of high humor, silent introspection, and even danger. It was a time of social upheaval, a redefinition of the role of sex and race, and what it meant to be part of the mainstream…or not. Rediscovery was in the air, a marijuana-filled air, and often included quite a bit of travel.

In the fall of 2025, Clay-Chalkville High School in Alabama chased a championship in the space between memory and change. Friday nights arrived with familiar rituals and quiet pressure. Helmets were buckled. Lights came on. A stadium that held decades of voices stood on borrowed time, even as a new season demanded full attention. Wins accumulated, but so did moments that never appeared on a scoreboard – conversations in parking lots, superstitions repeated without explanation, lessons passed down rather than announced.

Coming Back to My Trees / Dod yn ôl at fy Nghoed is a lyrical memoir of loss, belonging and spiritual return. Rooted in hiraeth- a deep longing for home, it blends memory, myth and the sacred landscapes of Wales.

COMO NALGA DE MONJA es una reflexión ingeniosa, sincera y profundamente humana sobre la vida, la muerte, la fe y la extraña aventura de estar vivo. Con humor, ironía e historias personales, Nicolò Luca explora las preguntas que muchos se hacen en silencio: ¿Qué sucede después de la muerte? ¿Qué es lo que realmente importa en la vida? ¿Y por qué los seres humanos somos tan maravillosamente contradictorios?

Michael seemed like a typical New Yorker and in a lot of ways he was. He had a swagger and an accent that was unmistakable. That's what he wanted people to think about him. And he risked his life on 9/11 to come to the aid of his city. He was a hero-but that was not always the case throughout much of his life. Rescued from a life that was heading into crime and prostitution, Michael was reset on a road to become a responsible citizen.

On May 8, 2006, Congolese finance graduate Guy Goma turns up for a job interview at the BBC when his world suddenly explodes. Mistaken for a technology expert whose name was also Guy (and who was waiting in a different reception area), he’s ushered into a TV studio and interviewed live on air.

The most important places in this second memoir are Jefferson, Maine; 508 Beau Street; Washington & Jefferson College in Washington, Pennsylvania; and Cambridge, England. The author invites you to watch him stride, stumble, and maybe catch his balance.

Deep in the American South, poverty was rarely temporary. For many families, it was inherited. In the cotton mill towns of the American South, generations of families lived in a world defined by lint dust, mill whistles, and long days of exhausting labor. Poverty was not simply a hardship. It was a system that shaped communities, reputations, and the expectations placed on entire bloodlines. Families like these were often labeled with a single dismissive word: lintheads.
