In diesem Buch sind achtzehn Hundegeschichten zusammengetragen, sorgfältig ausgewählt und in ihrer Vielfalt kaum zu übertreffen.
On heiter, besinnlich oder leicht skurril – stets halten sie eine Überraschung bereit. Fast alle Geschichten sind wahr und von den Autoren selbst erlebt. Sie zeigen, dass die Partnerschaft zwischen Mensch und Hund wunderbar sein kann und manchmal schier Unglaubliches zu leisten vermag.

En 2057 ni la religión ni el mercado dirigen ya la sociedad. La ciencia es el nuevo credo, y el Método, el nuevo orden social basado en la salud de los individuos. El Método es infalible.

Desde su implantación, ha vencido todas las enfermedades. Los hombres viven sanos, felices y en paz. Sin embargo, en una sociedad en la que la felicidad es una obligación cívica, la salud es un deber y el amor ha quedado reducido a la mera compatibilidad de dos sistemas inmunitarios, el suicidio es la única vía de escape posible.

¿Hasta qué punto puede el Estado restringir los derechos individuales bajo el pretexto de´protegernos´? ¿En qué momento la protección estatal se convierte en vigilancia? ¿Tenemos los individuos derecho a rebelarnos?

Juli Zeh aborda estas cuestiones en El Método , una novela visionaria e inquietante que habla del futuro para alertarnos sobre el presente.

A rising star who has garnered some of Europe’s most important literary prizes, Juli Zeh has established herself as the new master of the philosophical thriller. With , she now takes us on a fast-paced ride through deadly rivalry and love’s infinite configurations.

Against the backdrop of Germany and Switzerland, two physicists begin a dangerous dance of distrust. Friends since their university days, when they were aspiring Nobel Prize candidates, they now interact in an atmosphere of tension, stoked by Oskar’s belief that Sebastian fell into mediocrity by having a family. When Sebastian’s son, Liam, is apparently kidnapped, their fragile friendship is further tested.

Entrusted with uncovering the truth, Detective Superintendent Schilf discerns a web of blackmail, while at the same time the reality of his personal life falls into doubt.

Unfolding in a series of razor-sharp scenes, is a riveting novel of ideas from a major new literary voice.

With the recent success of works in translation, such as Stieg Larsson’s and , Zeh is poised to take off.

A psychological thriller in the tradition of Patricia Highsmith about two couples caught in a web of conflicting passions while deep-sea diving off the beautiful Canary Islands.

In the late 1990s, Sven Fiedler and his girlfriend, Antje, left Germany for the island of Lanzarote, rejecting what Sven considered a vulgar culture of materialism and judgment. The young couple set up a diving service catering to tourists eager to bask in the warm sunshine and explore the silent, gleaming marine paradise that makes this otherwise barren volcanic island such a remarkable retreat. Sven’s approach was simple: take the mechanics of diving seriously, instruct his clients clearly, and stay out of their personal business as best he can.

And life on the island goes smoothly until two German tourists-Jola von der Pahlen, a daytime soap star on the verge of cinematic success, and Theo Hast, a stalled novelist-engage Sven for a high-priced, intensive two-week diving experience. Staying in a guest house on Sven and Antje's property, the two visitors and their hosts quickly become embroiled in a tangle of jealousy and suspicion.

Sven is struck by Jola's beauty, her evident wealth, and her apparently volatile relationship with the much older Theo. Theo quickly leaps to the conclusion that Sven and Jola are having an affair, but, oddly, he seems to facilitate it rather than trying to intervene. Antje, looking on, grows increasingly wary of these particular clients.

As the point of view shifts from one character to the next, the reader is constantly kept guessing about who knows what, and, more important, who is telling the truth. A brutal game of delusion, temptation, and manipulation plays out, pointing toward a violent end. But a quiet one, down in the underwater world beneath the waves.

Mia Holl lives in a state governed by The Method, where good health is the highest duty of the citizen. Everyone must submit medical data and sleep records to the authorities on a monthly basis, and regular exercise is mandatory. Mia is young and beautiful, a successful scientist who is outwardly obedient but with an intellect that marks her as subversive. Convinced that her brother has been wrongfully convicted of a terrible crime, Mia comes up against the full force of a regime determined to control every aspect of its citizens' lives.

The Method, set in the middle of the twenty-first century, deals with pressing questions: to what extent can the state curtail the rights of the individual? And does the individual have a right to resist? Juli Zeh has written a thrilling and visionary book about our future, and our present.

Burroughso, I. Welsho tradiciją, atitenka žmogaus sąmonei – nihilistiškai ir haliucinuojančiai. Zeh jautriai skverbiasi į žmogiškąją vadinamos naujosios Europos tuštumą. Skaitytojas su pagrindiniu veikėju Maksu klaidžioja Vienos gatvėmis ir žmogiškojo suvokimo paribiais.
