Forster E. M. Zimmer mit Aussicht. Eine Liebesgeschichte
Ein wunderschoner Liebesroman. Eine brillante Gesellschaftskomodie. Florenz um 1900. Auf einer Bildungsreise in Italien begegnet die junge Lucy Honeychurch dem unkonventionellen George Emerson und verliebt sich. Cousine Charlotte, Reisebegleitung und rigorose Anstandsdame, ist schockiert, denn George gehort nicht den gesellschaftlichen Kreisen an, in denen Lucy sich bewegt. E.M. Forster konfrontiert in diesem mit spielerischer Leichtigkeit und dezenter Ironie erzahlten Roman die erstarrten Konventionen des englischen Burgertums mit der vital-sinnlichen, mediterranen Lebensweise.

Orwell George Burmese Days
In the provincial Burmese town of Kyauktada, the world-weary John Flory – a thirty-something English teak dealer – leads a life of quiet disillusionment, hardly mixing with the natives or the expat community, and deriving some comfort only from his conversations with an Indian friend, Doctor Veraswami, and the attentions of his local mistress. His prospects seem to improve when he meets the orphaned niece of a timber merchant, Elizabeth Lackersteen, who appears to reciprocate his feelings of love – but the arrival on the scene of another suitor, the boorish police officer Verrall, and the scheming of a disgruntled local magistrate threaten to shatter Flory’s dreams and put him on a path to tragedy. Based on the author’s own experiences in Burma as a young officer in the Indian Imperial Police, Burmese Days – here presented in the version published in Britain in 1944, which follows the text of the first American edition – is George Orwell’s debut novel, invaluable both as a faithful description of life in Burma during the twilight of the British Raj and as an expose of the failings of colonial rule.

Mankell Henning The Return of the Dancing Master
Herbert Molin, a retired police officer, is living alone in a remote cottage in the vast forests of northern Sweden. He has two obsessions: one is the tango and the other is a conviction that he is being hunted, constantly pursued by 'demons'. He has no close friends, no close neighbours, and by the time his body is eventually found, Molin is almost unrecognisable. Lindman, a police officer on extended sick leave, hears of the death of his former colleague and, to take his mind off his own problems, decides to involve himself in the case. What he discovers, to his horror and disbelief, is a network of evil almost unimaginable in this remote district, and one which seems impossible to link to Molin's death.

Orwell George Shooting an Elephant
'Shooting an Elephant' is Orwell's searing and painfully honest account of his experience as a police officer in imperial Burma; killing an escaped elephant in front of a crowd 'solely to avoid looking a fool'. The other masterly essays in this collection include classics such as 'My Country Right or Left', 'How the Poor Die' and 'Such, Such were the Joys', his memoir of the horrors of public school, as well as discussions of Shakespeare, sleeping rough, boys' weeklies and a spirited defence of English cooking.
