Neu -»Jahrestage« ist ein Jahrhundertbuch. Es gibt keinen zweiten deutschen Roman dieser Art. Gesine Cresspahl lebt mit ihrer zehnjährigen Tochter Marie in New York. Ein Jahr lang, 1967/68, erzählt sie ihr täglich aus der Familiengeschichte.

Charly Hübner und Caren Miosga lesen den kompletten Roman und beeindrucken durch sprachliche Nähe und bewegende Glaubwürdigkeit. Über die Zeiten und Welten hinweg gleichen unsere Hoffnungen und Ängste denen von Gesine und Marie. Ungekürzte Lesung mit Charly Hübner, Caren Miosga. »Welcher ist der bedeutendste deutschsprachige Roman seit 1945 Natürlich gibt es da nur eine sinnvolle Antwort: Uwe Johnsons Jahrestage. Eine konfliktreiche Gegenwart wird hier in Parallelschaltung präsentiert - Caren Miosga und Charlie Hübner erzählen sie wie von heute.« (Die Zeit) Deutsch

A landmark of 20th Century literature about New York in the late 1960s, now in English for the first time.Late in 1967, Uwe Johnson set out to write a book that would take the unusual form of a chapter for every day of the ongoing year. It would be the tale of Gesine Cresspahl, a thirty-four-year-old single mother who is a German émigré to Manhattan’s Upper West Side, and of her ten-year-old daughter, Marie—a story of work and school, of friends and lovers and the countless small encounters with neighbors and strangers that make up big-city life. An everyday tale, but also a tale of the events of the day, as gleaned by Gesine from The New York Times: Johnson could hardly foresee the convulsions of 1968, but some of the news—the racial unrest roiling America, the escalating war in Vietnam—was sure to be news for some time yet to come. Finally, it would be a tale told by Gesine to Marie about Gesine’s childhood in a small north German town, of her independent and enterprising father, of her troubled mother, of Nazi Germany (Gesine was born the year Hitler came to power) and World War II and Soviet retribution and the grimly regulated realities of Communist East Germany. An ambitious historical novel as well as a wonderfully observed New York novel, Anniversaries would take in the unsettled world of the present along with the twentieth century’s ­disastrous past, while vividly depicting the struggle of a loving, though hardly uncomplicated mother and a bright, indomitably curious girl to understand and care for each other and to shape a human world. Gesine and Marie are among the most memorable and engaging characters in literature, and Anniversaries, at once monumental and intimate, sweeping and full of incident, stylistically adventurous and endlessly absorbing, is quite simply one of the great books of our time.

Gesine Bullock-Prado says it’s what’s inside that really counts, and in this visually sumptuous book, the author of Sugar Baby and Pie it Forward showcases cakes that are beautiful from the inside out. Each chapter is devoted to a technique of making different types of cake, beginning with the easiest recipe and moving to the more technically difficult as the chapter progresses. When the cakes are cut, they will reveal intricate layers of patterns and designs, such as hearts, checkerboards, helixes, and colorful stripes, that will bring a smile to everyone who enjoys them. This compendium of gorgeous cake recipes and techniques will yield glorious meringues, sponge cakes, pound cakes, cheesecakes, and tarts for all levels of bakers. With her trademark wit and enthusiasm for the world of confections and baking, Gesine’s latest book will delight her fans.

Organized by temperature and chemical stages, here are more than 100 recipes for lollipops, caramel, rock candy, chocolate mousse, macarons, marshmallows, pudding pops, cakes, and much more. Sugar Baby will satisfy even the most demanding sweet tooth.Praise for Sugar Baby:"Got a sweet tooth? Bakery owner Gesine Bullock-Prado's new cookbook, Sugar Baby, will school you in everything from rock candy to puff pastries. And Bullock-Prado --who has spent a lot of time in the kitchen with her actress sister, Sandra-- makes it look easy." -Ladies Home Journal “Truly, at her core, she like Dorie Greenspan or Rose Levy Beranbaum, is a dessert evangelist.” —Examiner.com

A former Hollywood insider trades the Hollywood Hills for Green Acres—and lives to tell about it in this hilarious, poignant treat of a memoir.As head of her celebrity sister’s production company, Gesine Bullock-Prado had a closet full of designer clothes and the ear of all the influential studio heads, but she was miserable. The only solace she found was in her secret hobby: baking. With every sugary, buttery confection to emerge from her oven, Gesine took one step away from her glittery, empty existence—and one step closer to her true destiny. Before long, she and her husband left the trappings of their Hollywood lifestyle behind, ending up in Vermont, where they started the gem known as Gesine Confectionary. And they never looked back. Confections of a Closet Master Baker follows Gesine's journey from sugar-obsessed child to miserable, awkward Hollywood insider to reluctant master baker. Chock-full of eccentric characters, beautifully detailed descriptions of her baking process, ceaselessly funny renditions of Hollywood nonsense, and recipes, the ingredients of her story will appeal to anyone who has ever considered leaving the life they know and completely starting over.

Immer wieder hegten Laien oder Weltkleriker im Frühen Mittelalter den Wunsch, im Kloster zu wohnen, ohne das monastische Versprechen abzulegen, womit sie zu Grenzgängern zwischen den religiösen Ständen des Mittelalters wurden. Gesine Jordan untersucht vergleichend die Motive und individuellen Handlungsräume dieser weltlichen Wohngäste in den Klöstern St. Gallen und Redon. Laien und Kleriker, die sich aus der Welt zurückzogen und erklärten, sie wollten als Wohngäste der Mönche "nichts als Nahrung und Kleidung" beanspruchen, wählten einen Weg der religiösen Konversion, der nicht über die benediktinische Profess führte. In Alemannien wie in der Bretagne bedeutete jedoch der dauerhafte Aufenthalt an einem heiligen Ort ein Privileg, das nicht allein aufgrund einer Güterschenkung, sondern auch aufgrund eines bestimmten sozialen Ranges gewährt wurde. Auf unterschiedliche und doch in vielem gleichartige Weise verwirklichten die Wohngäste individuelle Annäherungen an die monastische Lebensform und verbanden sich so den Mönchsgemeinschaften noch enger, als es etwa im Rahmen von Gebetsgemeinschaft und Stiftungen möglich war.
