Social Manners

When Chadwick Newsome lingers too long in Paris, his mother, a wealthy New England widow, sends her fiancé, Lambert Strether, to fetch him home. Newsome refuses, extending his stay while Strether finds himself lured by the intrigue of Parisian life.

From Sulky Susan, whose face is one big frown, to the little boy who can't stop telling fibs, these mischief-makers are up to no good! Ranging from the light-hearted to the deliciously dark, these cautionary tales will delight and intrigue listeners as much today as they did when first published in the mid-20th century.

Warum kam man erst im späten 20. Jahrhundert auf die Idee, Räder unter Reisekoffer zu montieren - obwohl es das Rad schon seit fünftausend Jahren gibt? Wären wir womöglich nie auf den Mond gelangt ohne das Wissen amerikanischer Näherinnen? Und wie sähe eigentlich eine Welt aus, in der Frauen genauso viel Gehör finden wie Männer? Die schwedische Bestsellerautorin Katrine Marçal zeigt mit viel Verve, was die Menschheit über die Jahrhunderte verloren (oder erst viel später erfunden) hat, weil eine Hälfte von ihr - die Frauen - nicht mitreden, mitbestimmen, miterfinden durfte.

"We all know bad manners when we see them," Henry Alford observes at the beginning of his new book. But what, he asks, do good manners look like in our day and age? When someone answers their cell phone in the middle of dining with you, or runs you off the sidewalk with their doublewide stroller, or you enter a postapocalyptic public restroom, the long-revered wisdom of Emily Post can seem downright prehistoric. Alford embarks on a journey to find out how things might look if people were on their best behavior a tad more often.
