E.t.a. Hoffmann
E.T.A. Hoffmann (1776–1822) is celebrated for his supernatural fiction such as 'The Sandman' as well as his musical achievements, notably the opera Undine. This book offers a concise yet comprehensive introduction to Hoffmann as a Romantic writer, composer and public figure. It follows his life as a lawyer, theatre director and senior judge in Berlin, where he clashed with authorities over their persecution of student radicals.

By combining his literary and musical contributions, the book presents Hoffmann as a multifaceted artist whose inventiveness, both comic and spine-chilling, remain influential today.

The Nutcracker and the Mouse-King
A children's Christmas story by E. T. A. Hoffmann, 'The Nutcracker and the Mouse-King' is the magical adventure of Marie Stahlbaum's favourite toy, the Nutcracker, who battles the nefarious Mouse-King in battle and takes the reader on a wonderful adventure, into a magical land of dolls. Probably Hoffman's most well-known story, produced in 1816, due to the fact that - some seventy-six years later - it inspired Tchaikovsky's ballet 'The Nutcracker'. A true Christmas classic, perfect for festive bedtime reading for adults and children a-like. Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann (1776 - 1822) was born in K nigsberg, East Prussia. Hoffmann's family were all jurists, and during his youth he was initially encouraged to pursue a career in law. However, in his late teens Hoffman became increasingly interested in literature and philosophy, and spent much of his time reading German classicists and attending lectures by, amongst others, Immanuel Kant. Hoffman went on to produce a great range of both

Högtryck Hos Familjen Hoffman
Året är 1978 och Elisabeth gör det hon kan allra bäst. Hon flyr från mannen i sitt liv. Den här gången mot saltstänkta klippor och ett vikariat på Styrsö vårdcentral. En sommar i lugn och ro breder ut sig framför henne och hon längtar efter att i ensamhet låta blånaderna från fästmannens hårda nypor blekna. Men på ön väntar förälskelsen och i den spartanska stugan, med utedusch och glittrande vyer, blir ingenting som det var tänkt. Ett halvt liv senare ligger högtrycket som ett lock över Varberg, och Elisabeths framskridna demens får det mesta att smälta samman. Lyckligtvis är minnet av den där svunna sommaren fortfarande intakt. Dottern Jossan kämpar också. Men det är inte bara moderns sviktande minne som rör till familjelivet. Filips nya rektorsjobb hotar att ta honom ifrån henne. Och med ungdomskärleken Kalle i skolans korridorer tvingas hon ta omvägar till kaffeautomaten. Jossan försöker få ordning på sin tillvaro. Men det är lättare sagt än gjort i den förbannade brittsommaren. Är det verkligen för mycket begärt med lite hederligt oktoberväder? Regn från sidan och stormbyar som tar tag och ruskar om. Högtryck hos familjen Hoffman är andra delen i Familjen Hoffman-serien. En roman om kärlek, familjerelationer och djupt bevarade hemligheter.

Orosmoln Hos Familjen Hoffman
Rom-Varberg-UppsalaStationerna i Jossans liv har varit flera, men ungdomsåren i den eviga staden på Roms alla barer och i Uppsalas studentkvarter är ett minne blott. Nu plöjer Jossan fram i högstadiets korridorer med lärarkalendern i famnen med siktet inställt på nästa lektion. Hon befinner sig mitt i livet med jobb, tonårsbarn och en adhd-diagnos i full blom. Lugnet infinner sig först om söndagsmorgnarna i kallbadhuset då den torra bastuvärmen och havets kalla avrivningar får sinnet att klarna. Vardagen springer på och skulle kunna fortsätta göra det, men vad Jossan inte anar är att det förgångna är ikapp och på god väg att ta henne med på en inre resa tur och retur till Roms alla gränder och piazzor. Till det som varit och det som blev. Orosmoln hos familjen Hoffman är första delen i Familjen Hoffman-serien.
