Digger Smith is an Australian soldier who has fought at Gallipoli. An old mate of Ginger Mick's (The Moods of Ginger Mick), he returns from the war to visit the family of a fellow solder, Jim Flood. Narrated by Bill (the protagonist of The Songs of a Sentimental Bloke and a neighbour of the Floods), the story is woven together with sobering reflections and emotive dynamics expressed within a community of neighbours - friends and families of Australia's soldiers.

Jenny Lewis relocates Gilgamesh to its earlier, oral roots in a Sumerian society where men and women were more equal, the reigning deity of Gilgamesh’s city, Uruk, was female (Inanna), only women were allowed to brew beer and keep taverns and women had their own language - emesal. With this shift of emphasis, Lewis captures the powerful allure of the world’s oldest poem and gives it a fresh dynamic while creating a fast-paced narrative for a new generation of listeners.

Qu'ils donnent la parole aux opprimés réduits au silence ou ravivent le souvenir des peuples engloutis de l'histoire, qu'ils exaltent l'amour d'une mère ou la fraternité nécessaire, qu'ils évoquent les réfugiés en quête d'une impossible terre d'accueil ou les abominables convois de bois d'ébène des siècles passés, ils sont habités d'une ferveur païenne lumineuse, qui voudrait souffler le vent de l'espérance.

A first person epic poem of Odysseus' life and journey. This poem has all the twists and turns that one might expect from the teller of the tale...which is in this case Odysseus himself. The poem starts with Odysseus chiding his unnamed summoner, thus narrating his life, starting with his childhood and ending with his ultimate triumph at the death of the suitors. However, Odysseus has an agenda of his own and attempts to turn the tables on his foe.

Rumi gilt als der bedeutendste Lyriker Persiens. Eine Auswahl aus seiner Gedichtssammlung "Der Diwan" erscheint hier erstmals als Hörbuch und zeugt von Rumis poetischer Meisterschaft: ungekünstelt, frisch und spontan spricht er von Sehnsucht, Verzweiflung und Hoffnung und fasst die höchsten Wahrheiten wie die alltäglichsten Dinge in Verse von unübertroffener Schönheit.

La mort, l'amour, la vie", telle aurait pu être la devise de celle qui adorait la poésie d'Éluard. D'autant que la mort, contrairement à la plupart des poètes qui ne font que l'effleurer, Alicia Gallienne l'a tutoyée en son adolescence, jusqu'à l'affronter l'année de ses vingt ans, au petit matin du 24 décembre 1990. Ses poèmes sont ceux d'une irradiante jeune fille de dix-sept, dix-huit et dix-neuf ans, d'une jeune femme secrète qui aura vécu intensément un destin de comète.

Sokrates, der alte Greis,

„Ach, wie viel ist doch verborgen,

Was man immer noch nicht weiß.“

Und so ist es. – Doch indessen
