Doris Lessings Katzenbuch
Gebundenes Buch
»Hinreißend beschreibt die Nobelpreisträgerin Doris Lessing die Beziehung der verschiedenen Katzen untereinander, ihre Rivalität, ihre Kämpfe, Eifersucht, aber auch ihre tiefen Freundscha en. Sie hat sie beobachtet, beschrieben, belauscht, sie hat sie immer das sein lassen, was sie sind: stolze, schöne Tiere, für deren Zuneigung wir nur dankbar sein können.«
Elke Heidenreich, WDR
»Isolde Ohlbaum, berühmt für ihre Menschenportäts, hat lange genug Katzen beobachtet, um den Geschichten ebenbürtige Bilder beizugeben - jenseits von Schönsein- und Gefallenwollen.«
Günther Specovius, NDR

Mara and Dann (eBook, ePUB)
eBook, ePUB
A visionary novel from Doris Lessing, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.
It is sooner than you might think. And the Earth's climate is much changed - it's colder than ever before in the north, and unbearably dry and hot in the south. Mara, who is seven, and her four-year-old brother Dann find themselves somewhere very strange, not home ...
They are taken in by a kindly, grandmotherly woman, but this new life is hard: hunger, dirt, thirst and danger are the children's constant companions. Drought and fire carry off their adoptive home and force them to set off northward into the unknown, to experience a series of adventures that bring them to an altogether altered world, where they can start to learn and build anew.
Doris Lessing has written a compelling, troubling and entertaining novel that, through the remarkable odyssey of a brother and sister living in the imagined future, manages to tell us a great deal about the present we perceive only dimly and scarcely know how to value.
