We are all classicists - we come into touch with the classics on a daily basis: in our culture, politics, medicine, architecture, language, and literature. What are the true roots of these influences, however, and how do our interpretations of these aspects of the classics differ from their original reality?

Vor Jahren verliebte sich Carmen in einen skrupellosen Feind – und bezahlte den Preis dafür mit Verrat, Herzschmerz und Narben, die nie verheilten. Jetzt ist Mafiaboss Stefano zurück, um sie und die Überreste des zerschlagenen Kartells ihrer Familie für sich zu beanspruchen, selbst wenn das bedeutet, einen Krieg zu entfachen.

Doch als er den Schmerz entdeckt, den sie erlitten hat, wird seine Wut tödlich – und die Grenze zwischen Hass und Verlangen beginnt zu verschwimmen.

Die Frauen in Menomorphosen stehen mitten im Leben – und oft am Rand des Wahnsinns. Mit scharfem Blick, radikalem Humor und poetischer Wucht erzählen sie von Aufbrüchen und Abstürzen, der Abwesenheit von Sex, einem Übermaß an Gefühlen – und nicht zuletzt von der lust- und leidvollen Suche nach einem passenden Ich. Schauspielerin, Regisseurin und Drehbuchautorin Jule Ronstedt zeigt schonungslos, was passiert, wenn Frauen nicht verschwinden, sondern sichtbar bleiben – wütend, wild, witzig.

From sharp-tongued satire to moments that break your heart, Resonance is the most unflinching volume yet in the acclaimed Conversations with the Devil collection. Not every conversation here involves the Devil himself. One begins with a phone call no parent should ever receive. Another follows a woman who’s masked her entire life without realizing she’s on the autism spectrum. Elsewhere, a comedian takes verbal swings at a trial lawyer, and the Devil’s familiar bite returns in stories that skewer ego, vanity, and the absurdities of human nature.

Working in the lodge’s kitchen, my job is to keep the food coming and make the guests happy. Every morning, when the older, rugged ranger comes in for breakfast, I can’t stop my heart from racing. David is completely off-limits—he’s my boss’s brother, and one wrong move could ruin everything. The way his eyes linger on me, like he’s imagining all the things he wants to do…it makes me wonder if taking the risk might be worth it.
