Story
Ein Plädoyer gegen das Verzagen und für die Heiterkeit "Ernst ist das Leben, heiter ist die Kunst", schrieb Friedrich Schiller. Doch was ist Heiterkeit eigentlich? Und wie bekommen wir sie in unser ernstes Leben zurück? In Zeiten, in denen uns im Angesicht globaler Krisen intuitiv erst einmal anders zumute ist, macht sich Axel Hacke auf die Suche nach einem fast vergessenen Gemütszustand, nach einer Haltung dem Leben gegenüber, in der wir seltsam ungeübt geworden sind.

Story
In diesem dritten der gemeinsamen - teils preisgekrönten - Hörbücher von Ursula Mauder und Axel Hacke treten Mauders Songs mit Hackes Texten aus "Wozu wir da sind" in eine besondere Art von Dialog. Sie vertiefen und ergänzen Walter Wemuts Gedanken über das gelungene Leben auf eigene Weise, sind Frage oder Antwort, Beruhigung oder Provokation und geben dem Wünschen und Hoffen, dem Tod und dem Traum, dem Rausch, der Erfüllung und dem Scheitern, kurz: dem Leben einen eigenen Sound.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!
