Story
At the end of 1954, just a handful of weeks after emigrating from a small village in Germany to Montreal Canada, Rosemarie Döderlein (Doederlein) just turned 14 years old when she vanished on the way to a bakery a few doors down from the family apartment, never to be seen or heard from again. After 68 years of fruitless searching and wondering, in 2022, Rosemarie's youngest sister Vera finally learned the truth of what happened to her. It is a remarkable story about unconditional love, DNA, and investigative genetic genealogy.

Story
Ricco, vecchio e solitario nel suo esilio in Madagascar, Long John Silver rimugina sul passato. C'è una taglia sulla sua testa ma il pensiero della forca lo preoccupa meno di un'oscura posterità. Nel poco tempo che gli resta, il tremendo pirata dell'isola del tesoro racconta la sua versione della storia, tracciando un poderoso affresco della pirateria con tanto di arrembaggi, estenuanti bonacce, giri di chiglia e feroci capitani.

Story
En esta biografía novelada se cuenta, además de la apasionante vida de Jorge Isaacs, el siglo XIX colombiano. De una manera original, dándole la voz narrativa a su esposa Felisa González, descubrimos las facetas de Isaacs como minero, hacendado, general, gobernante, explorador, entre otros, más allá de su fama como autor de María (1867).

Story
Vom Gehen und Ankommen. Wohin geht man, wenn man im Nirgendwo steht: zwischen zwei Ländern, zwischen nahen Erinnerungen und ferner Gegenwart, zwischen einem stets redenden Vater und einer schweigenden Mutter? Das Mädchen ist sechs, als sie die DDR verlässt und mit ihrer Familie ein neues Leben im äußersten Westen Deutschlands beginnt. Warten dort die Verheißungen, auf die ihre Eltern gehofft haben? Kann der Vater sich neu erfinden, wird die Mutter ihre Krankheit, aus DDR-Gefängnissen mitgebracht, überwinden? Das Kind sehnt sich nach der Großmutter im fernen Leipzig und lernt, wie die Aachener zu reden.

Bestsellerautor David Safier erzählt die Geschichte seiner Eltern: Sie führt uns vom Wien des Jahres 1938, als sein Vater Joschi dort studierte, über die Gefängnisse der Gestapo bis nach Palästina, wo er als Barmann und Spion arbeitete und schließlich zur See fuhr. Waltraud wächst als Tochter eines Werftarbeiters in Bremen auf. Im Krieg wird die Familie ausgebombt, wohnt jahrelang in einem Eisenbahnwagen. Als das Wirtschaftswunder kommt, ergattert Waltraut einen begehrten Ausbildungsplatz zur Verkäuferin. Bei ihrer ersten Begegnung mit Joschi in einer Eisdiele lässt Waltraut ihn abblitzen.

Story
"In questo libro tutto ciò che è raccontato è vero, i personaggi citati sono esistiti, qualcuno esiste ancora, e per sincerarsene, a chi lo chiede posso fornire i recapiti. Se qualcosa somiglia alla realtà è perché ne è un ritratto fedele, niente nomi fasulli, niente invenzioni, ce n'è abbastanza nel mondo da dire senza aggiungere fatti o vicende inesistenti e gonfiarli fino a farne un romanzo. Questa quindi non è narrativa di finzione, come si usa dire, ma la semplice e limpida realtà raccontata realisticamente."

Story
Carlotta, ragazza veneta primogenita di quattro figli, viveva serenamente la sua vita finché a 17 anni la morte del padre precipitò la sua famiglia in gravi difficoltà economiche. Sua madre decise allora di emigrare con i figli in Brasile per sfuggire alla fame e alla miseria. Carlotta dovette così lasciare il giovane fidanzato che stava facendo il militare. All'addio si fecero la promessa, difficile da mantenere, di ricongiungersi dopo che fossero cresciuti i fratellini di lei. Si imbarcarono su un piroscafo nel 1881 e dopo un viaggio avventuroso arrivarono a destinazione.

Story
Piacenza, dicembre 2019. Sono trascorsi dieci anni da quando si è spento Stefano Fugazza, l'indimenticato direttore della Galleria d’arte moderna Ricci Oddi, e fervono i preparativi per la mostra che lo celebrerà. A curarla è stato chiamato Gabriele Dadati, che era il più stretto collaboratore dello studioso nell’ultimo periodo della sua vita. Quando l'allestimento è ormai concluso, avviene un fatto clamoroso: a distanza di ventitré anni dal furto, fa la sua ricomparsa in città Ritratto di signora di Gustav Klimt.

Story
"Il silenzio è irreale, qui, al centro del salone. Non riesco nemmeno a sentire gli uccelli cantare nel giardino, fuori dalle grandi finestre. L'odore di bruciato copre ogni cosa, così come la fuliggine. Si è depositata su mobili, fotografie, quadri... su tutto quello che resta di quanto conteneva questa casa. La mia casa, Villa Montenegro. Queste mura hanno resistito a tempeste, terremoti, ma non al fuoco, e alle impossibili temperature dell'odio. Ma ora, in mezzo alla catastrofe, mi manca l'aria."

Story
Sola nel suo regno, Milena ricorda con una chiarezza insopportabile. Lucida e dolorosissima. Nella testa ha un vortice di mille pensieri. Se chiude gli occhi forse scomparirà tutto. Uno stratagemma che usava da bambina. Non funzionava allora e non funzionerà neppure adesso. Però ci prova ancora. "Scompare tutto, scompare tutto" ripete come un mantra. Ma no, non si può cancellare quello che è successo.

Story
1942: Cecilia Klein ist sechzehn Jahre alt, als sie in das Konzentrationslager Auschwitz-Birkenau deportiert wird. Fasziniert von ihrer Schönheit, trennt der Kommandant des Lagers sie von den anderen Gefangenen und missbraucht sie regelmäßig. Cilka lernt schnell, dass ihre unfreiwillige Machtposition Überleben bedeutet. Doch nach der Befreiung von Auschwitz wird Cilka von den Russen als Kollaborateurin angeklagt und in das brutale Gefangenenlager Workuta in Sibirien geschickt. Dort steht sie vor neuen und gleichzeitig schrecklich vertrauten Herausforderungen.
