NATIONAL BESTSELLER “Every sentence of Monica Heisey’s writing is a treat. No one makes me laugh like she does.” —Dolly Alderton, New York Times bestselling author of Everything I Know About Love Recommended by Los Angeles Times Washington Post GQ Elle Good Morning America People Guardian The Times E! News Online The Globe and Mail Toronto Star The Week New York Post Shondaland and many more! A hilarious and painfully relatable debut women's fiction novel about one woman’s messy search for joy and meaning in the wake of an unexpected breakup, from comedian, essayist, and award-winning screenwriter Monica Heisey. Maggie is fine. She’s doing really good, actually. Sure, she’s broke, her graduate thesis on something obscure is going nowhere, and her marriage only lasted 608 days, but at the ripe old age of twenty-nine, Maggie is determined to embrace her new life as a Surprisingly Young Divorcée™. Now she has time to take up nine hobbies, eat hamburgers at 4 am, and “get back out there” sex-wise. With the support of her tough-loving academic advisor, Merris; her newly divorced friend, Amy; and her group chat (naturally), Maggie barrels through her first year of single life, intermittently dating, occasionally waking up on the floor and asking herself tough questions along the way. Laugh-out-loud funny and filled with sharp observations, Really Good, Actually is a tender and bittersweet divorce novel that lays bare the uncertainties of modern love, friendship, and our search for that thing we like to call “happiness”. This remarkable debut, perfect for book clubs, is from an unforgettable new voice in fiction. “A prime example of how a storyteller's voice can pull you right in and keep you clinging to every sentence. . . . “Tremendously funny and thoughtful.” –GQ

(Please scroll down for english version) Seit 2017 portraitiert Ingar Krauss Zuckerrüben in ihrer individuellen Gestalt. Wie schon in seinem Stilleben-Buch »39 Bilder« von 2016, inszeniert er auch die Zuckerrüben bei natürlichem Licht, vor einem dunklem Hintergrund, fotografiert sie analog in schwarzweiss und reduziert sie auf das Wesentliche ihrer Erscheinungsform. Im Laufe der Jahre entstand so eine Typologie dieser »Beta Vulgaris«. Seine Zuckerrüben-Physiognomien lassen die Kulturpflanze in schlichter Würde und Melancholie gleichermaßen auftreten und geben Anlass, darüber nachzudenken, welche Wahrnehmung und Wertschätzung der Mensch der Natur und ihren Erzeugnissen entgegenbringt. Um das oberflächliche, schnelle Durchblättern zu vermeiden, wurde diese Publikation nicht als klassisches Buch konzipiert, sondern als aufwendig produzierte Portfolio-Schachtel, mit 36 einzelnen, in kräftigem Tritone auf Karton gedruckten Bildkarten, einem Plakat mit der vollständigen Typologie und einem Textheft mit einem Essay von Eugen Blume. Ingar Krauss (*1965) arbeitet ausschließlich analog, fertigt alle Abzüge selbst und versteht die Fotografie als »alchemistisches Bildverfahren, das der bildenden Kunst, der Malerei und der Druckgrafik auch handwerklich verwandt ist«. (aus dem Begleittext von Eugen Blume). Eugen Blume lebt und arbeitet als freier Kurator und Autor in Berlin und war dort bis 2016 Direktor des Hamburger Bahnhofs, Museum für Gegenwartskunst. Weitere Titel von Ingar Krauss bei Hartmann Books: 39 Bilder, 2016 ; Hütten Hecken Haufen, 2019 __________________________________ Ingar Krauss has been depicting sugar beets in their individual form since 2017. As he did in his book 2016 book of still lifes „39 Bilder“ , he also stages the sugar beets in natural light against a dark background, photographing them in black-and-white using analog methods and reducing them to the essentials of their appearance. Thus, over the years, a typology of this „Beta Vulgaris“ has emerged. His sugar beet physiognomies allow the cultivar to appear in its simple dignity and melancholy, while at the same time providing the opportunity to contemplate human perception of, and appreciation, for nature and its products. To avoid superficial, quick browsing, this publication was not conceived as a classic book, but as a lavishly produced portfolio box, with 36 individual picture cards printed in strong tritone on cardboard, a poster featuring the complete typology, and a text booklet with an essay by Eugen Blume. Ingar Krauss (*1965) works exclusively in analog, makes all the prints himself, and understands photography as an "alchemical image process that is also related to fine art, painting, and printmaking, in terms of craftsmanship" (from the accompanying text by Eugen Blume). Other titles by Ingar Krauss at Hartmann Books: „39 Bilder“, 2016 ; „Hütten Hecken Haufen“, 2019.

In Hamburg's troubled Wilhelmsburg district, Prosecutor Chastity Riley investigates a brutal double murder amid corruption and gentrification. Battling personal demons and powerful foes, she fights to expose a city's dark secrets. Germany's Queen of Krimi returns with the caustically funny, breathtakingly dark next instalment in an addictive series... 'As much a character study as the story of a crime ... like a flipbook, full of startling images and sudden movements, that will thrill cynics and romantics alike' Sunday Times 'For the first time in a long time, I found a book I simply couldn't put down - and I didn't want it to end. There really should be a word for the sadness you feel when you're nearing the end of a truly fantastic read. Sharks is that kind of book' Leye Adenle 'Taut, compulsive and laced with humour as dark as its setting, Sharks raises the bar again for one of my favourite series. Chastity Riley is the perfect anti-hero for our times, and Simone Buchholz is the real deal' Rod Reynolds 'Such a revelation' Laura Lippman The Chastity Riley series WON the CWA Crime in Translation Dagger ____ In Wilhelmsburg, Hamburg's so-called 'problem area', an American couple is found brutally murdered in a derelict house. Prosecutor Chastity Riley is assigned the case and quickly finds herself waist-deep in a murky tangle of city planners, shady investors and vanishing officials. The gentrification machine is rolling on, and someone is sending a very clear message. As November fog settles over the city, Chastity is coughing up blood, her personal life is a slow-motion disaster, and her former colleague Faller won't stop interfering. But nothing is going to stop her from cutting through the lies, not even the sharks circling ever closer. Dark, caustic and piercing, Sharks is a searing investigation into greed, power and the price of resistance in a city devouring itself, from one of Germany's finest, most original crime writers. ____ Praise for the Chastity Riley series: 'Richly entertaining, wickedly cutting, to the point and funny. The perfect example of a crime novel that is literally pacy and has something to say, because you know Buchholz cares about society and Hamburg, and it shows in her writing' Paul Burke, CrimeTime 'A dark treat ... memorable modern noir, and a fascinating portrait of seedy life in Hamburg' Telegraph 'Simone Buchholz can make you grin, gasp or gag at will' The Times 'Beautifully concise, with commendably sparse prose, dark humour and an appealing protagonist ... uncompromising, provocative and righteously fierce' Guardian 'Beautifully written in cool, witty prose' N.J. Cooper, Literary Review 'German-American Chastity Riley is snooty, churlish, sarcastic, sometimes drunk and always inappropriate. The whole series breaks the boundaries of typical crime novels' Romy Hausmann 'A distinctive voice, and a flawed but compelling protagonist ... style and sass and St Pauli' Will Carver 'Ice-cool, effortlessly classy prose' Observer 'Reading Buchholz is like walking on firecrackers' Graeme Macrae Burnet 'Buchholz's work remains as persuasive as ever' Financial Times 'Simone Buchholz writes with real authority and a pungent, noir-ish sense of time and space ... a palpable hit' Independent 'With brief, pacy chapters and fizzling dialogue, this almost feels like American procedural noir and not a translation' Maxim Jakubowski 'There is a fantastic pace to the story ... a unique voice that delivers a stylish story' NB Magazine 'A real blast of adrenaline' Big Issue

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2014 im Fachbereich Amerikanistik - Literatur, Note: 1,0, Universität Hamburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), Veranstaltung: Family Affairs: Recent American Memoir, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The recollection of traumatic memories is often fraught with enormous difficulties for a person affected by trauma. This is due to a disruption of memories, something that Cathy Caruth alludes to in her definition of trauma in Unclaimed Experience: Trauma, Narrative and History by stating that the "response to the event occurs in the often delayed, uncontrolled, repetitive appearance of hallucinations and other intrusive phenomena". In her definition, Caruth refers to the distorted powers of recollection that very often only allow the traumatised person to access small fragments, if any at all, of the traumatic event. Even though this derangement of memories constitutes a type of psychological defence, and therewith temporarily serves the psyche as a means of protection, it is not conducive to one's mental health in the longer term. A much more beneficial long-term effect on the psyche of traumatised persons can be achieved through the conscious narration of trauma. In order for the traumatic event not to be triggered arbitrarily, the traumatic event must consciously be placed into the context of one's own life story. Based on Mary Karr's novel The Liars' Club, this term paper not only reveals what it is that initially prevents the author from the sincere coping with trauma, but also analyses how Karr makes use of her post-traumatic experiences in the writing process in order to overcome these.So as to better illustrate the underlying themes of trauma, this paper includes several subsections that will help to gain further insights into the subject matter. Firstly, I would like to introduce the psychological effects of trauma and I hence included a subsection on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder that shall introduce the basic relevance which trauma implicates. Secondly, I included a subsection on the two different pattern of defense of dissociation and repression as these frequently appear throughout the memoir. Following this, I added a section regarding the narration of trauma. A first subsection on the Narrative Exposure Therapy allows the reader to learn about a psychotherapeutic approach which is often used for the treatment of people suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. A second subsection on certain writing strategies encompassing the narration of trauma shall complete the theoretical framework of this paper.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich VWL - Fallstudien, Länderstudien, Note: 1,7, Universität Hamburg (Department Wirtschaftswissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Economic growth and development in China, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The economic growth of China impresses the world; and some country fear about this, because firms displace there production from these countries to china. But China is only the last step in an array of development countries from East / Southeast Asian region. After the fast development of Japan after World War II, the so called tiger countries , South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, highlight from the 60s on with high rates of economic growth and later the second generation of tiger countries also (e.g. Malaysia, Indonesian and Thailand). And now China!A country of 9.5 Million square mile can't growth on whole with the same rate. The effect is an increase in the disparity of regional incomes and still increase with the boost at the rates of economic growth. But what are the reasons for the regional differences in economic growth and the regional disparity. One reason could be the preferential policies in the eastern regions. These policies are specially prepared to attract foreign companies. A second reason, that is current discuss in the scientific world, could the geographical characteristics. The differences in the distance to the coast or navigable river, the climate or the slope could explain variable development.This paper wants to illuminate especially the second reason as a possible answer for unequal regional development and regional disparity, but policy and geography are often the same. So it is important to show the link between these possible reasons and the policies with regional impacts. There are different publications about the geographical implication on economic growth in china in the last years, based on different models. The intention is to compare these papers and highlight the differences.The first chapter handles the historical economic development of the last years in china and wants to show the actual situation. The development especially in policy terms, the change to a market-orientated economy, could already explain many disparities. The third chapter illuminate the regional inequality in China, there development, the theories of convergence and want to give a first answer for the different growth rates. Then we will look to the geography and their effects to Chinese growth rates and at least we make an outlook on future development base on polarization theory.

DECISION MAKING AND PERSONAL FREEDOM: We all know many strategies for decision making. But most of them only create false compromises in our lives and hinder our personal freedom. A false compromise occurs when you are more captivated by the outer world than by the wisdom of your inner being. Because then you are deciding to ignore your heart in your deeds while saying "It is important" with your words. But if you don't follow the navigation of your heart, you lose your orientation for your decision making in your daily life. FREEDOM - YOUR GUIDED MEDITATION FOR DECISION MAKING: This guided meditation for clarity and decision making from meditation teacher and life coach Seraphine Monien lovingly helps you to dissolve the false compromises in your day-to-day life and works like a real boost for your positive self-esteem.

Enigmas of the English Alphabet: The Art of the Scribe" is not merely a book, it is a groundbreaking exploration of English spelling, pronunciation, and the art of language itself. Originally published in 2006 and a Foreword Magazine Book of the Year finalist in Education, this Revised Edition expands upon Alves-Milho's analysis of why English remains one of the most fascinating and challenging languages to master, and what learners can do to navigate it with confidence. Editorial reviews Enigmas Of The English Alphabet by Alvaro J. Alves-Milho º. Comprehensively compiled and arranged for ease of use by non-specialist general readers, Enigmas Of The English Alphabet expansively contributes for a greater and more accurate conceptual grasp of the rules and peculiarities of a difficult and sometimes contradictory language. Enigmas Of The English Alphabet is very strongly recommended, especially to readers new to the English language, as well as those who are searching for a "user-friendly" and easy-to-follow guide to the many diversities and specifics of a language that even native-born speakers can have difficulties with. This book is different because it explains why English behaves the way it does. Once you understand that, everything becomes less stressful. I especially appreciated that the author avoids arrogance-there's no sense of "you should already know this." Instead, there's patience, logic, and respect. This is one of the most thoughtful ESL books I've ever read. Thomas R. - Hamburg, Germany ¿¿¿¿¿ I bought this book because I enjoy language history, but I didn't expect it to be so practical. It doesn't just tell you what English does-it explains how it got there. That perspective changes everything. Suddenly, pronunciation mistakes feel understandable rather than embarrassing. The writing style is calm, precise, and respectful, which I deeply appreciate. This book feels like it was written by someone who genuinely cares about learners, not just about theory. Liu Fang - Chengdu, Sichuan ¿¿¿¿¿ I am an English teacher, and this book immediately stood out from the usual materials. It explains pronunciation in a way that aligns with how learners actually think, not how linguists write papers. The avoidance of heavy IPA symbols is a huge advantage for students who feel overwhelmed by technical notation. I have already started adapting some of the ideas into my lessons, and my students are responding positively. This book respects both teachers and learners. Jennifer M. ¿¿¿¿¿(ESL Teacher) "This book is a breakthrough for my classroom. Instead of overwhelming students with the International Phonetic Alphabet, Alvaro's method gives them practical tools they can use immediately. The cover looks professional, though adding a visual hint of language learning could make it even more inviting for students.

RELEASE OLD HABITS, REMOVE NEGATIVE ENERGY AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE: If you hold on to old habits which create feelings of hurt, anger and resentment, the time has come to release their negative energy and to truly change your life. Sometimes we simply want to do what we like and what makes us feel good. We often wonder why the good feeling doesn't last long - or even worse, why we are more depleted of energy afterward than we were before. In order to understand this, it is important to us to get to know the difference between ego feelings and heart feelings. Our ego feels good when we continue old habits. Continuing old habits is sometimes like the feeling of comfort in a hamster wheel. But ego ideas are not aware of our soul's divine plan. We need to identify our ego ideas in order to release them and remove the negative energy they produce in our life. I NEED TO CHANGE MY LIFE - BUT HOW?
