"Ich habe Dich so lieb" ist eine feinsinnige Zusammenstellung von Gedichten und Liedern des genialen Christian Morgenstern und des unerhört humorvollen Joachim Ringelnatz.

Wir möchten mit diesem Hörbuch dazu beitragen, dass niemand die großen Werke der beiden Dichter vergisst.

Серебряный век подарил миру плеяду удивительных поэтов. Ахматова, Мандельштам, Цветаева, Гумилев, Блок… То ли время было такое необыкновенное, то ли мироздание на мгновение замешкалось, и теория вероятностей прозевала это невероятное совпадение.

"La rebelión de los follamantes" se trata de la continuación de Follamantes. En esta segunda parte una nueva Autoridad ha llegado, y con la inseguridad y el temor que conlleva suceder a una autoridad cuya caída está relacionada con los supuestos follamantes, ésta convoca a sus ministros y activa una ardua investigación para recabar toda la información posible: ¿Quiénes son? ¿Qué pretenden? Lo único que se sabe con certeza de los follamantes es que, cuando se ensamblan, vuelan, de puro contentos y de ganas de bailar en el aire. Y se abrazan. Y se van. Volando.

Numbers don't lie, all of mankind collectively as individuals eternally searches for freedom. Six poets from across the UK innovatively use UK grime music as inspiration to reflect upon the concept of liberation in its various manifestations. Whether freedom from social expectations, religious indoctrination, and self-hatred, to the ubiquity of iniquity via discrimination. This fusion has the option of accompanying audio, using the age-old purity of the spoken word expressed through the electronic medium of UK grime.

This collection pays tribute in story and verse to our four-footed canine friends - those doggone dogs.

You will laugh, cry, and ponder as you listen to this delightful tribute to our dog companions. For, without them - and their doggy hearts - the world would be a colder, less interesting, and certainly less loving place. So here's to those doggone dogs!

The most enduring and popular theme of poems and poets is that of love. Love changes; its rhythms pause and pulse on the tiniest of things and the biggest of thrills. Within its shades all other feelings, all other emotions, gently reside, waiting for their moment. In these 50 poems, the many, many shades of love reveal themselves.

The question is asked by each of us, but the answer remains elusive. Dictionaries summon up many words, but none fulfill. Love itself is often ethereal, felt but only seen in a glance, a look, a fleeting touch. Part of love’s beauty is perhaps in the fact that the question never can be adequately answered; it's ephemeral, a chimera of the heart and only felt. Our own experiences are unique and personal to ourselves and of little help defining it for another.

Today perhaps we all agree that youth is spoilt, ill-disciplined and in search of constant and instant gratification. No matter how much we love them, our children, as they mature from child to youth, are pampered. A century ago, and even further back, even the most privileged of youth was rarely indulged. In this volume we look at those years of youth through the eyes and pens of classic poets. They reveal times of hardship, of fear, of love and loss.

Because it defines human existence, love is one of art's favorite subjects. Timeless Love: Poems, Stories, and Letters celebrates the mysterious nature of love and passion by bringing together classic works by beloved writers through the ages. Including stories, poems, and letters from Shakespeare, Elizabeth Barret Browning, John Keats, Edith Wharton, and more, this collection explores how each love is singular - yet love itself is universal.

One minute you'll find yourself in the cockpit of a bomber, limping home from a raid over enemy territory, and the next, in a dogfight during the Battle of Britain. Author and screenwriter Brian L. Porter served with the RAF during the Cold War. Many of the works in this collection are based on the personal experiences of those who took part in the conflicts they depict - men and women who were pleased to relate those experiences to the author.

In this collection, you’ll find stories conveyed through poetry and song. Some of them will no doubt be familiar to you - like Francis Scott Key’s Star Spangled Banner and Julia Ward Howe’s Battle Hymn of the Republic (although many people are only familiar with the first verse). Other poems will be entirely new to you. My hope is that you’ll embrace both the familiar and the unfamiliar as pieces of the American story that deserve to be remembered.
