Story
This novel is based on Arthur Conan Doyle's extraordinary real-life fight for justice. Arthur and George grow up worlds and miles apart in late 19th-century Britain: Arthur in shabby-genteel Edinburgh, George in the vicarage of a small Staffordshire village. Arthur becomes a doctor, and then a writer, George a solicitor in Birmingham. Arthur is to become one of the most famous men of his age; George remains in hardworking obscurity. But as the new century begins, they are brought together by a sequence of events which made sensational headlines at the time as The Great Wyrley Outrages.

In May 1937, a man in his early 30s waits by the lift of a Leningrad apartment block. He waits all through the night, expecting to be taken away to the Big House. Any celebrity he has known in the previous decade is no use to him now, and few who are taken to the Big House ever return.

Story
Артур и Джордж родились в Англии в конце XIX века века, но пути их долгое время не пересекались. Миром Артура был католический Эдинбург, несколько потрепанный, но благородный; Джордж вырос в доме священника в стаффордширской деревушке. Артуру предстояло стать одним из самых знаменитых людей своего времени, Джордж стал юристом в Бирмингеме и был доволен своей скромной участью. Однако начинается новый век, и им предстоит неожиданное знакомство–благодаря событиям, о которых кричали все газеты того времени.

Story
The adolescent Christopher and his soul mate, Toni, had sneered at the stifling ennui of Metroland, their cosy patch of suburbia on the Metropolitan line. They had longed for Life to begin - meaning Sex and Freedom - to travel and choose their own clothes. Then Chris, at 30, starts to settle comfortably into bourgeois contentment himself. Luckily, Toni is still around to challenge such backsliding.

Story
Der sowjetische Starkomponist Dmitri Dmitrijewitsch Schostakowitsch gehört zu den renommiertesten Komponisten seines Landes, als Stalin eines Abends der Aufführung einer seiner Opern beiwohnt und schon in der Pause den Saal verlässt. Schostakowitsch wartet ab diesem Abend Nacht für Nacht angezogen, auf seinen gepackten Koffern sitzend neben dem Aufzug seiner Wohnung, dass er verhaftet wird. Doch niemand kommt. Stattdessen feiert er Erfolge mit seiner Fünften Symphonie und wird wieder Liebling der Massen. Aber nun muss er sich ungewollter Privilegien erwehren, die mit der Vereinnahmung durch die Partei einhergehen.

Story
Papegøjen i denne romans titel er en udstoppet fugl som den store franske forfatter Gustave Flaubert havde stående foran sig på sit skrivebord da han i 1870 erne skrev historien om en gammel tjenestepige. Hun lod sin højt elskede papegøje udstoppe da den var død og endte med at tro at den var Helligånden. Denne fugl spiller en afgørende rolle for romanens hovedperson. Geoffrey Braithwaite er pensioneret læge med et livsprojekt: Han vil vide alt om den store franske forfatter Gustave Flauberts liv.

Story
Tony Webster og hans klike var tre. Adrian Finn blev den fjerde. Skolen var en ren drengeskole. Sultne efter sex og bøger styrede de gennem gymnasietiden sammen udvekslede følelser jokes sladder og viden. Måske var Adrian mere seriøs end de andre; han var helt sikkert klogere. Men de fire lovede hinanden venskab for livet og skiltes. Studierne kalder. Tony bliver kæreste med Veronica. Vi er i tresserne. Den seksuelle revolution har ingen rigtig oplevet. Som Tony konstaterer: De fleste mennesker oplevede først tresserne i halvfjerdserne.
