THE HOUR BETWEEN DOG AND WOLFBy JOHN COATESBt.6509780007476695

AUTHOR OF THe MONTH

THE DECISION BOOKBy Mikael Krogerus & Roman Tschappeler

THe MAkiNg OF Decision Book, Question Book AND change Book By Mikael krogerus

in 2008, in the middle of the biggest recession since the 1930s, i pondered a big question: should i quit my work with switzerland´s leading daily newspaper (think: New York Times) in order to work freelance (duh!) and move to Berlin and spend more time with my kids? should i? shouldnt´i? My colleague and friend Roman Tschäp-peler suggested to use a visualisation technique which he called the “rubber band model” to make the right decision. He asked me: What is holding you? What is pulling you? At first glance the meth-od seemed to be a simple variation of the conventional question: ‘what are the pros and cons?’ The difference: ‘what is holding me? / What is pulling me?’ are positive questions and reflect a situ-ation with two attractive alternatives. Also: the visualization made my situation much clearer to me. i ended up quitting my job. And realized: a peacefulness follows any decision, even the wrong one.

otHeRS ReLated bookS

inspired by this simple method we sat down and researched other decision-making tools. After browsing books, digging through stud-ies and interviewing researchers we settled for 50 strategic models. And pitched The Decision Book to a publisher. He accepted. we couldn´t believe it. it turned out to be a good decision. A really good decision.

One year later Roman and i on our way back from a party were dis-cussing the problem of so many people asking boring questions. we decided to change that and started to collect funny, smart, thought-provoking questions that we wished someone would have asked us. Not the one asking the questions was supposed to be the star, but the one answering them. The Question Book was first released in switzerland in 2009. it has been of great help in any social situations we have been in ever since.

in 2011 we both felt the urgent need to change something in our lifes. And we felt the nagging feeling that we ought to be challeng-ing the status quo. so we started working on a book about change – from the small and seemingly insignificant changes in our day-to-day lives to the big and almost incomprehensible changes in world history. why do we have less and less time? why has everything become so complicated? is democracy the right political system? who governs the world? why are we unfaithful? why has air travel become so cheap?

For this book we talked to experts and analysed existing theories. we wanted to make sense of some of today’s fundamental upheav-als. The result is a visual travel guide through our time, a compila-tion of practical models, concrete theories and bold experiments in thinking that explain our world: The Change Book, available in english in January 2013.

IN ONE PERSONBy JOHN IRVINGBt.9509780857520968

A compelling novel of de-sire, secrecy, and sexual identity, In One Person is a story of unfulfilled love - tormented, funny, and affecting - and an impas-sioned embrace of our sexual differences. Billy, the bisexual narrator and main character tells the tragicomic story of his life as a “sexual suspect,” a phrase first used by John Irving in 1978 - in his landmark novel of “termi-nal cases”, The World Ac-cording to Garp… In One Person is a poignant trib-ute to Billy’s friends and lovers - a theatrical cast of characters who defy category and convention. It is an intimate and un-forgettable portrait of the solitariness of a bisexual man who is dedicated to making himself “worth-while”.

ELIZABETH IBy MARGARET GEORGEBt.4259780330537124

1588. In the height of her power is the legendary Elizabeth Tudor, history’s most enigmatic queen. She is the virgin with many suitors; the victor of the Ar-mada who hated war; the jewel-bedecked woman always pinching pennies. Elizabeth’s flame-haired cousin, Lettice Knollys, is her bitter rival. In love with Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester, and mother to the Earl of Essex, the mercurial nobleman who challenged Elizabeth’s throne, Lettice has been intertwined with Elizabeth since childhood. This is a story of two women of fierce intellect and de-sire: one trying to protect her country and throne; the other trying to regain power and position for her family.

NIGHTWOODSBy CHARLES FRAZIERBt.3259781444731286

The main lesson Luce had learned was that you couldn’t count on anybody. In the lone-some beauty of the for-est, across the far shore of the mountain lake from town, Luce acts as care-taker to an empty, de-caying Lodge, a relic of holidaymakers a century before. Her days are long and peaceful, her nights filled with Nashville radio and yellow lights shim-mering on the black wa-ter. A solitary life, and the perfect escape. Until the stranger children come. Bringing fire. And murder. And love.

THE HYPNOTISTBy LARS KEPLERBt.3509780007461097

Karolinska Hospital, Stockholm. Detective In-spector Joona Linna is faced with a boy who witnessed the gruesome murder of his family. He’s suffered more than one hundred knife wounds and is comatose with shock. Linna’s running out of time. The killer’s on the run and, seemingly, there are no clues. Des-perate for information, Lin-na enlists disgraced spe-cialist Dr Erik Maria Bark, a hypnotist who vowed never to practice again. As the hypnosis begins, a long and terrifying chain of events unfurls with re-verberations far beyond Linna’s case.
