How to Fall in Love
A thoughtful, captivating and ultimately uplifting novel from this uniquely talented author.
Christine Rose is crossing the Ha’penny Bridge in Dublin late one night when she sees a stranger, Adam, poised to jump. Desperate to help, she talks him into a reckless deal: if he gives her two weeks – till his 35th birthday – she’ll prove that life is worth living.
But as the clock ticks and the two of them embark on late-night escapades and romantic adventures, what Christine has really promised seems impossible…
A novel to make you laugh, cry and appreciate life, this is Cecelia Ahern at her thoughtful and surprising best.

Flugangst 7A
Der neue Psychothriller von Bestseller-Autor Sebastian Fitzek: In der Tradition von PASSAGIER 23 spielt er mit den menschlichen Urängsten des Eingeschlossenseins und der Hilflosigkeit an Bord eines Flugzeugs.
Wir haben für Sie reserviert: 7A. Der gefährlichste Platz in einem Flugzeug...
Mats Krüger, ein erfahrener und erfolgreicher Psychiater, muss seine panische Flugangst überwinden, als seine hochschwangere Tochter Nele nach jahrelanger Funkstille wieder Kontakt zu ihm aufnimmt. Mats, der nach dem Tod seiner Frau per Schiff nach Argentinien ausgewandert ist, hatte nie wieder vor zurückzukehren. Doch jetzt bittet Nele ihren Vater kurzfristig, ihr nach der Geburt des Babys Beistand zu leisten.
Nach der Teilnahme an einem Flugangst-Seminar geht Mats an Bord des Langstreckenflugs Buenos Aires - Berlin. Schon kurz nachdem er seinen Platz eingenommen hat, muss er feststellen, dass er sich auf die falschen Ängste vorbereitet hat: Es ist keine Turbulenz, kein Druckabfall und keine Terrorwarnung, die ihn in einen entsetzlichen seelischen Ausnahmezustand treiben.
Sondern der Anruf eines Unbekannten, der ihm eröffnet, dass sich ein ehemaliger Patient an Bord befindet. Jemand, den Krüger einst von mörderischen Gewaltphantasien befreite. Und den er nun dazu bringen soll, über 600 Passagiere und sich selbst in den Tod zu reißen ...

Haunting, uplifting, beautiful: the final work from Helen Dunmore
Helen Dunmore passed away in June 2017, leaving behind this remarkable collection of short stories. With her trademark imagination and gift for making history human, she explores the fragile ties between passion, love, family, friendship and grief, often through people facing turning points in their lives:
A girl alone, stretching her meagre budget to feed herself, becomes aware that the young man who has come to see her may not be as friendly as he seems.
Two women from very different backgrounds enjoy an unusual night out, finding solace in laughter and an unexpected friendship.
A young man picks up his infant son and goes outside into a starlit night as he makes a decision that will inform the rest of his life.
A woman imprisoned for her religion examines her faith in a seemingly literal and quietly original way.
This brilliant collection of Helen Dunmore's short fiction, replete with her penetrating insight into the human condition, is certain to delight and move all her readers.

Habsburg Empire: A New History
In a panoramic and pioneering reappraisal, Pieter Judson shows why the Habsburg Empire mattered so much, for so long, to millions of Central Europeans. Across divides of language, religion, region, and history, ordinary women and men felt a common attachment to “their empire,” while bureaucrats, soldiers, politicians, and academics devised inventive solutions to the challenges of governing Europe’s second largest state. In the decades before and after its dissolution, some observers belittled the Habsburg Empire as a dysfunctional patchwork of hostile ethnic groups and an anachronistic imperial relic. Judson examines their motives and explains just how wrong these rearguard critics were.
Rejecting fragmented histories of nations in the making, this bold revision surveys the shared institutions that bridged difference and distance to bring stability and meaning to the far-flung empire. By supporting new schools, law courts, and railroads, along with scientific and artistic advances, the Habsburg monarchs sought to anchor their authority in the cultures and economies of Central Europe. A rising standard of living throughout the empire deepened the legitimacy of Habsburg rule, as citizens learned to use the empire’s administrative machinery to their local advantage. Nationalists developed distinctive ideas about cultural difference in the context of imperial institutions, yet all of them claimed the Habsburg state as their empire.
The empire’s creative solutions to governing its many lands and peoples?as well as the intractable problems it could not solve?left an enduring imprint on its successor states in Central Europe. Its lessons remain no less important today.
