Ich fühlte mich zu alt für dieses Buch. Der fast zwanzigjährige Protagonist begibt sich mit zwei Freunden auf einen teils abenteuerlichen Roadtrip quer durch die USA um seinen leiblichen Vater ausfindig zu machen. Abgesehen vielleicht von der Gefühlswelt eines Spenderk...

Monika Helfer erzählt die Geschichte ihrer Großmutter – die sie nie persönlich kennengelernt hat – die Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts mit ihrer Familie abseits eines kleines Dorfes in Österreich lebten und von allen dort nur „Die Bagage“ genannt wurden.

Die damalige Zeit war sowieso schon nicht einfach. Und dann noch abseits zu leben und sein eigenes Ding durchzuziehen um so mehr.

Insgesamt eine bemerkenswerte Geschichte (im doppelten Sinne), kurzweilig erzählt auf 150 Seiten.

I make no claims to have any idea what any of these people are doing – and judging from how some of them look in certain locations, I suspect neither do they themselves. But that’s okay, because it makes for the kind of open-ended storytelling photography that allows us to fit our own narrative to […]

This is a story of a road trip. After a particularly traumatic Valentine's Day, Fadi Boukaram was surfing google maps and noticed that there was a town called Lebanon... in Oregon. Being Lebanese himself, he wondered, how many Lebanons exist in the US? The answer: 47. Thus b...

I’ll be the last person to pretend to understand the modern art housed within, but the architecture at Fondazione Prada was spectacular – partially rejuvenated, partially new buildings by Rem Koolhaas, and a very sensitive mix of hypermodern and classical Italian. The historical references to arches, stucco and what I think of as typically Italian […]
