Story
London, 1938. The effervescent "It girl" of London society since her father was named the ambassador, Kathleen "Kick" Kennedy moves in rarified circles. Eager to strike out on her own, Kick is soon swept off her feet by Billy Hartington, the future duke of Devonshire. But their love is forbidden, as Kick's devout Catholic family and Billy's staunchly Protestant one would never approve their match. And when war breaks like a tidal wave across her world, Billy is ripped from her arms as the Kennedys are forced to return to the States.

Story
It's 1988. Harper Richardson's mum and dad are divorced. Her mum got custody of her, the Mini and 500 tins of baked beans. Her dad got a mouldering cottage in a Midlands backwater village and plenty of free time to indulge his WWII obsession. What a Way to Go is a warm, wise and witty tale of one girl's mission to run headfirst into the middle of some of life's big questions - and to come out the other side with some reasonable answers.

Story
Frankreich, 1897: Gabrielle Chanel - später unter dem Namen Coco weltberühmt - und ihre Schwester Antoinette werden von ihrem Vater in einem Waisenheim abgegeben. Armut und harte Arbeit bestimmen dort ihren Alltag. Doch Coco ist nicht bereit, sich in ihr Schicksal zu fügen. Unbeirrbar erobert sie sich ihre Freiheit - unter den teils bewundernden, teils neidischen Blicken ihrer Schwester. Antoinette weicht Coco bei ihrem Weg zur Modemacherin nicht von der Seite und unterstützt sie, wo sie kann. Bald schon spricht man in Paris ehrfurchtsvoll von den "Schwestern Chanel".

Story
In Berlin findet die Galizierin Mascha Engel endlich eine Heimat und im Romanischen Café und im Künstler-Kabarett Freunde, die nicht an ihrer Herkunft, sondern an ihrer Kunst interessiert sind. Und die lebt sie in ihrer Großstadtlyrik aus. Als sie 1928 den Hebräischlehrer Saul Kaléko heiratet, hat sie sich, blutjung, bereits einen Namen als Lyrikerin gemacht. Ihre Gedichte erscheinen in Zeitungen und mit dem Lyrischen Stenogrammheft erstmals in Buchform. Dann kommt das Jahr 1933 und plötzlich ist Mascha weder Galizierin noch Berlinerin, sondern nur noch Jüdin.
