The Case of Richard Sorge
Richard Sorge was a spy, a Russian spy and an extraordinarily successful one. Two quotes illustrate this. The first is by Larry Collins, 'Richard Sorge's brilliant espionage work saved Stalin and the Soviet Union from defeat in the fall of 1941, probably prevented a Nazi victory in World War Two and thereby assured the dimensions of the world we live in today.' The second is by Frederick Forsyth, 'The spies in history who can say from their graves, the information I supplied to my masters, for better or worse, altered the history of our planet, can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Richard Sorge was in that group.'Masquerading as a Nazi journalist, Richard Sorge worked undetected as head of a Red Army spy ring until he was arrested and executed in Japan during the Second World War. Such an astonishing story as Sorge's is bound to attract attention but not only was this the first book to offer an authoritative account, it has, in many ways, not least in the quality of its writing,

Tim Burton
Tim Burton has reinvented Hollywood genre filmmaking over the past three decades. With a visual style inspired by the aesthetics of animation and silent comedy, Burton's work melds the exotic, the horrific and the comic, manipulating expressionism and fantasy with the skill of a graphic novelist. Published to accompany a major career retrospective at The Museum of Modern Art, this affordable volume considers Burton's career as an artist and filmmaker. It narrates the evolution of his creative practices, following the current of his visual imagination from his earliest childhood drawings through his mature oeuvre.

Jorge Luis Borges 1 - 1923-1944
JORGE LUIS BORGES (1899-1986) är en av nittonhundratalets mest inflytelserika och mytomspunna författare. Utgivningen av Borges på svenska har varit utspridd över lång tid och förvånansvärt mycket har förblivit oöversatt. För första gången presenteras författarskapet nu på ett övergripande sätt, med ett generöst urval i tre band. Urvalet är kronologiskt och rymmer såväl skönlitterära berättelser som essäistik, lyrik och tidningsartiklar. Den här volymen innehåller texter från böckerna Att glöda för Buenos Aires, Månen mittemot, Skrivbok San Martín, Evaristo Carriego, Diskussion och Evighetens historia, samt två av hans samlingar med berättelser, Skändlighetens världshistoria och Fiktioner, i sin helhet. Redaktörer för utgåvan är Lasse Söderberg och Oscar Hemer. Översättningarna är gjorda av Lasse Söderberg, Oscar Hemer, Sun Axelsson/Marina Torres, Ingegerd Wiking och Johan Laserna.
Jorge Luis Borges 3 - 1971-1986
Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986), av många ansedd som 1900-talets mest inflytelserika författare, är äntligen på väg att få den ordentliga presentation han så länge saknat på svenska. I den första delen i vår utgivning av Borges utvalda verk (2018) presenterades den unge Borges, från debuten fram till och med det stora genombrottet i den spanskspråkiga världen med novellsamlingen Fiktioner. I del 2 (2019) var det en mogen författare som fick sitt stora internationella genombrott. I den sista delen som nu ges ut är det den ikoniska Borges vi möter, den blinde barden som dikterade sina verk och hade en hel generation latinamerikanska författare som följeslagare och som hade en sådan status i hemstaden Buenos Aires att han i efterhand liknats vid en staty som klivit ned från sin sockel.Våra Borges-utgåvor innehåller såväl prosa som dikt, och i den här volymen även en serie föredrag Borges höll på 80-talet. Utgåvorna är kommenterade av våra redaktörer Oscar Hemer och Lasse Söderberg och innehåller ett generöst, i det här fallet nästan komplett, urval ur Borges produktion mot livets slut. Ur innehållet: novellsamlingarna Boken av sand och Shakespeares minne, essäböckerna Sju kvällar och Nio Danteessäer, föredragen i Borges, muntligen samt ett stort urval ur diktsamlingarna Tigrarnas guld, Den djupa rosen, Järnmyntet, Nattens historia, Chiffret, Atlas och De sammansvurna.»En av de viktigaste förlagssatsningarna på senare år.« Tidskriften Karavan
