Foer Jonathan Safran Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close
Jonathan Safran Foer emerged as one of the most original writers of his generation with his best-selling debut novel, Everything Is Illuminated. Now, with humor, tenderness, and awe, he confronts the traumas of our recent history. What he discovers is solace in that most human quality, imagination. Meet Oskar Schell, an inventor, Francophile, tambourine player, Shakespearean actor, jeweler, pacifist, correspondent with Stephen Hawking and Ringo Starr. He is nine years old. And he is on an urgent, secret search through the five boroughs of New York. His mission is to find the lock that fits a mysterious key belonging to his father, who died in the World Trade Center on 9/11. An inspired innocent, Oskar is alternately endearing, exasperating, and hilarious as he careens from Central Park to Coney Island to Harlem on his search. Along the way he is always dreaming up inventions to keep those he loves safe from harm. What about a birdseed shirt to let you fly away? What if you could actually hear everyone's heartbeat? His goal is hopeful, but the past speaks a loud warning in stories of those who've lost loved ones before. As Oskar roams New York, he encounters a motley assortment of humanity who are all survivors in their own way. He befriends a 103-year-old war reporter, a tour guide who never leaves the Empire State Building, and lovers enraptured or scorned. Ultimately, Oskar ends his journey where it began, at his father's grave. But now he is accompanied by the silent stranger who has been renting the spare room of his grandmother's apartment. They are there to dig up his father's empty coffin.

Foer Jonathan Safran We are the Weather. Saving the Planet Begins at Breakfast
'Climate change is the greatest crisis humankind has ever faced. It is that straightforward, that fraught. Where were you when you made your decision?'

In this extraordinarily powerful and deeply personal book, Jonathan Safran Foer lays bare the battle to save the planet. Calling each one of us to action, he answers the most urgent question of all: what will it take for things to change? It all starts with what we eat for breakfast.

Hofler Stefanie Tanz der Tiefseequalle
Manchmal ist es diese eine Sekunde, die alles entscheidet: Niko, der ziemlich dick ist und sich oft in Parallelwelten traumt, rettet die schone Sera vor einer Grapschattacke. Sera fordert Niko daraufhin auf der Klassenfahrt zum Tanzen auf, was verruckt ist und so aufregend anders, wie alles, was in den nachsten Tagen passiert. Vielleicht ist es der Beginn einer Freundschaft von zweien, die gegensatzlicher nicht sein konnten, aber im entscheidenden Moment mutig uber ihre Schatten springen.
