At 8.46 am on September 11, 2001, 14,000 people were inside the Twin Towers in New York - reading emails, making calls, eating croissants...over the next 102 minutes each would become part of the most infamous and deadly terrorist attack in history, one truly witnessed only by the people who lived through it - until now. Of the millions of words written about that unforgettable day when Al Qaeda attacked the western world, most have been from outsiders. New York Times reporters Jim Dwyer and Kevin Flynn have taken the more revealing approach - using real-life testimonies to report solely from the perspective of those inside the towers. 102 Minutes is the epic account of ordinary men and women whose lives were changed forever in this kamikaze act of terrorism. This unique book about unique people, includes incredible stories of bravery, courage and overcoming unbelievable odds.Immortalised in this non-fiction masterpiece are the construction manager and his colleagues who pried open the doors and saved dozens of people in the north tower; the police officer who was a few blocks away, filing his retirement papers, but grabbed his badge and sprinted to the buildings; the window washer stuck in a lift fifty floors up who used a squeegee to escape; and the secretaries who led an elderly man down eighty-nine flights of stairs. Chance encounters, moments of grace, a shout across an office shaped these minutes, marking the border between fear and solace, staking the boundary between life and death. Crossing a bridge of voices to go inside the infernos, seeing cataclysm and herosim one person at a time, Dwyer and Flynn tell the affecting, authoritative saga of the men and women - the 12,000 who escaped and the 2,749 who perished at Ground Zero on September 11th 2001 - as they made 102 minutes count as never before.

The dramatic and moving account of the struggle for life inside the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11, when every minute counted. Hailed upon its hardcover publication as a harrowing instant classic on 9/11, the critically acclaimed New York Times bestseller is now available in a revised edition timed to honor the tenth anniversary of that terrible morning.

In the past year, the narrator of 10:04 has enjoyed unexpected literary success, been diagnosed with a potentially fatal heart condition, and been asked by his best friend to help her conceive a child. Now, in a New York of increasingly frequent superstorms and political unrest, he must reckon with his biological mortality, the possibility of a literary afterlife, and the prospect of (unconventional) fatherhood in a city that might soon be under water. In prose that Jonathan Franzen has called 'hilarious...cracklingly intelligent...and original in every sentence', Lerner's new novel charts an exhilarating course through the contemporary landscape of sex, friendship, memory, art and politics, and captures what it is like to be alive right now.

Told through Ndaba Mandela's years of being raised by his grandfather Nelson Mandela, this book offers a rare and intimate insight into man behind the myth. Ndaba narrates his coming-of-age story within the framework of his grandfather's advice, understanding Mandela's much-loved proverbs as guidelines on how to become the people we want to be:Always choose compassion over contemptAssumptions make us look profoundly foolishShouting the loudest has never made anyone rightAnger has its place, even in a kind heartIn many ways, Ndaba has spent a lifetime reconciling the legend of Nelson Mandela with the man who was his grandfather, and interpreting these life-lessons as he, in turn, began to build a family. Here, Ndaba shares with us the memories he has of his grandfather - charming, real and sometimes surprising, they are lessons we can all learn from.

WHAT IF you could go back in time and change the course of history? WHAT IF the watershed moment you could change was the JFK assassination? 11.22.63, the date that Kennedy was shot - unless ...King takes his protagonist Jake Epping, a high school English teacher from Lisbon Falls, Maine, 2011, on a fascinating journey back to 1958 - from a world of mobile phones and iPods to a new world of Elvis and JFK, of Plymouth Fury cars and Lindy Hopping, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake's life - a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time. With extraordinary imaginative power, King weaves the social, political and popular culture of his baby-boom American generation into a devastating exercise in escalating suspense.

A riveting high stakes political story like Under the Dome, a love story like Bag of Bones, a 1950s community like IT, Stephen King's incredibly ambitious, heartstoppingly dramatic time travel novel, 11/22/63 is a WHAT IF novel like no one's ever read before--a one thousand page tour de force.

On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas, President Kennedy died, and the world changed. What if you could change it back? Stephen King’s heart-stoppingly dramatic new novel is about a man who travels back in time to prevent the JFK assassination—a thousand page tour de force.Following his massively successful novel Under the Dome, King sweeps readers back in time to another moment—a real life moment—when everything went wrong: the JFK assassination. And he introduces readers to a character who has the power to change the course of history.Jake Epping is a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program. He receives an essay from one of the students—a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night 50 years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Harry escaped with a smashed leg, as evidenced by his crooked walk.Not much later, Jake’s friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. He enlists Jake on an insane—and insanely possible—mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination. So begins Jake’s new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake’s life—a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.A tribute to a simpler era and a devastating exercise in escalating suspense, 11/22/63 is Stephen King at his epic best.

Schamlos, wie der Münchner nun einmal ist, will er der Welt glauben machen, dass er ihn erfunden hat: den Biergarten. Dabei weiß doch jeder: Das Copyright liegt in Franken! Dort trieben schon vor Jahrhunderten findige Braumeister Vorratsräume in den Untergrund, in denen das Bier auch den Sommer über kühl bleibt. Heute wie damals strömten die Durstigen zu ihren Kellern und lassen sich ein, zwei, drei und noch mehr Seidla einschenken. Von April bis Oktober sitzt ganz Franken draußen im Schatten uralter Linden. Wo, das muss man wissen. Denn gerade die Klassiker unter den Biergärten liegen außerhalb von Städtchen und Dörfern, in denen die Wirtshäuser während der Saison geschlossen sind.

Weil es mehr als gerechtfertigt ist, dass Schweini 10 Millionen Euro im Jahr verdient, und weil Schweinsteiger der beste Name der Welt ist. Weil "Klinsmann raus"! Weil Franz Beckenbauer lustiger ist als Mario Barth, und weil gute Freunde niemand trennen kann. Weil sich niemand mehr an das angebliche "Finale dahoam" erinnern kann, und an eine angebliche Stadt namens Barcelona auch nicht. Weil Schalke nie Meister wird, und weil kleine Kinder Angst vor Jürgen Klopp haben. Weil Müller-Wohlfahrt der schnellste und schönste Arzt der Welt ist.

Weil Paul Breitner die Mao-Bibel ehrlich gesagt auch nicht kapiert hat. Weil Pippo Inzaghi eine Ratte war. Weil David Alaba beim FC Bayern spielt und seine Heimat so exotisch ist. Weil es im Bayern-Fanshop nichts gibt, was man nicht braucht. Weil der FC Bayern selbst Calle del Haye, Adolfo Valencia, den Schapapapa und Carsten Jancker überlebt hat. Weil Dante die Haare am schönsten hat. Weil Felix Baumgartner im Weltall den Ball gefunden hat, den Uli Hoeneß 1976 beim Elfer verschossen hat.

Die Slowakei ist ein Land für Naturliebhaber, Outdoor-Enthusiasten und Landschaftsgourmets. Weithin bekannt ist die wunderschöne Tatra, das kleinste Hochgebirge der Welt, aber die eigentlichen Schätze liegen in den weiten und wenig besuchten karpatischen Bergwäldern, in denen die großen Beutegreifer bis heute wie eh und je frei umherstreifen.Die Slowakei wartet weltweit mit der höchsten Dichte an Burgen auf, die dazu noch imposant über Flüssen und Tälern thronen. Etwas zum Entdecken und Staunen sind die vielen kleinen, manchmal verschlafenen und häufig malerischen Kleinstädte, wie zum Beispiel Banská Stiavnica und Bardejov, die in die UNESCO-Welterbeliste aufgenommen wurden.Jörn Kaufhold, der seit 2007 in der Slowakei lebt, entschlüsselt in 111 Geschichten uralte slawische Runen und aktuelle Busfahrpläne, nimmt den Leser mit auf geschichtsträchtige Gipfel sowie auf ein gutes Glas Johannisbeerwein und erklärt, warum man gelegentlich sieben Mal Nein sagen muss.

111 GRÜNDE, POLEN ZU LIEBEN ist eine ebenso witzige wie hintergründige Liebeserklärung des Schriftstellers Matthias Kneip an Deutschlands östliches Nachbarland und seine Menschen. Humorvoll und augenzwinkernd nimmt Kneip den Leser mit auf eine sehr persönliche Reise durch das Land zwischen Oder und Bug, ohne dabei den Blick für die Realitäten zu verlieren. Wussten Sie beispielsweise, dass Polen mit dem Meer verheiratet ist? Oder dass der größte Gartenzwerg der Welt im polnischen Nowa Sżl zu finden ist? Neben kuriosen Sehenswürdigkeiten widmet Kneip sich auch den Eigenheiten der polnischen Mentalität oder besonderen Werken polnischer Kultur. Selbstverständlich darf bei einer solchen Liebeserklärung der Blick in den nationalen Kochtopf nicht fehlen! Auch polnische Geschichte und Traditionen begleiten den Leser auf dieser literarischen Reise durch ein Land, das zu entdecken sich lohnt. Aktualisierte und erweiterte Neuausgabe
