Katarina Horowitz drömmar, E-bok
Katarina Horowitz har börjat anteckna sina drömmar. Mitt i livet dyker det upp bilder från det förflutna - från en polsk barndom hon varken kan minnas eller glömma, från ett judiskt ursprung som hon inte var medveten om att hon ägde. Men framför allt tänker hon på män, på de män som korsat henens väg och format hennes öde. Omöjliga män i en lång rad fram till honom som hon älskar nu och som är mer omöjlig än någon av de andra. Mer omöjlig och mer älskad. En kärlek på avgrundens rand. Nuet och det förflutna vävs samman i ett sökande efter mönster och mening. Var man för med sig en gåva, men ofta är den omvärvd av mörker och blir tydlig först genom tidens spegel. Katarina Horowitz tänker på Josef som berättar chassidiska legender och har en famn som Tusen och en natt, osande av Österns alla kryddor. Hon minns den mörkögde René som hoppar på henne från spiselhyllan på ett slott i Provence och den stormande förälskelsen med Roland Kermadec, som anser att kärleken fördriver tiden och tiden fördriver kärleken. Hon ler åt Marcel Chavarri och hans äventyr med mannen med den röda näsan, och hon återuppväcker studenttiden i Lund, hungern efter kunskap och liv, den vilda drömmen om kärlek. Allting i det förflutna leder fram mot den kärlek hon lever i nu. Det förflutna är som en fresk, full av människor, viskningar och rop; nuet blir undan för undan en djupdykning in i en enda allt uppslukande passion. Nattens drömmar och de gamla chassiderna hjälper henne att tänka och se, kommer till undsättning när allting tycks förlorat. Katarina Horowitz sökande efter kärlek och frihet spänner över trettio år. Under den tiden reser hon genom världen och sitt eget liv i förtröstan på Martin Bubers ord: "Varje resa har ett mål som den resande inte känner till."

A SUNDAY TIMES AND TLS BOOK OF THE YEAR'Monumental and vividly imagined . . . a fitting tribute to a city that has survived, changed and grown for so many centuries'Daily Telegraph'Wonderfully entertaining . . . written with vim and vigour'Sunday Times'Lively and engrossing . . . Issa has brilliantly illuminated the history of a great city'Literary ReviewA city drawn in sand.Inspired by the tales of Homer and his own ambitions of empire, Alexander the Great sketched the idea of a city onto the sparsely populated Egyptian coastline. He did not live to see Alexandria built, but his vision of a sparkling metropolis that celebrated learning and diversity was swiftly realised and still stands today.Situated on the cusp of Africa, Europe and Asia, great civilisations met in Alexandria. Together, Greeks and Egyptians, Romans and Jews created a global knowledge capital of enormous influence: the inventive collaboration of its citizens shaped modern philosophy, science, religion and more. In pitched battles, later empires, from the Arabs and Ottomans to the French and British, laid claim to the city but its independent spirit endures.In this sweeping biography of the great city, Islam Issa takes us on a journey across millennia, rich in big ideas, brutal tragedies and distinctive characters, from Cleopatra to Napoleon. From its humble origins to dizzy heights and present-day strife, Alexandria tells the gripping story of a city that has shaped our modern world.'A multifaceted history of an enthralling city'Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones, author of Persians: The Age of the Great Kings'A cornucopia of fascinating details, every page revealing a new delight'Paul Strathern, author of The Medici
