Vi, de druknede
Marstal, en flække på en ø i Østersøen, et fjernt sted i en lille nation. I 1800-tallet bliver Marstal hjemsted for nye generationer af mænd, der drevet af udlængsel sætter sig for at krydse verdenshavene. Det er mænd, der lever i et evigt opgør: med havet, med hinanden og med de kvinder, de elsker, men først og fremmest med deres egne mørke sider. Havet kræver sin pris af mænd som den fandenivoldske Laurids, der efter et tabt søslag aldrig bliver den samme igen. Og sønnen Albert, der på Stillehavet leder efter sin forsvundne far, men i stedet kommer hjem med et skrumpehoved. Og Knud Erik, som med hovedet fuldt af Alberts skrøner bliver stillet over for et moralsk umuligt valg i Anden Verdenskrig. Også familierne bliver havets ofre; de fædreløse børn, de druknedes enker - og Klara, Marstals dødsengel. Fra Newfoundlands klippekyster til Samoas plantager, fra Tasmaniens lyssky barer til det nordlige Ruslands ødemark er Vi, de druknede en episk beretning om fire generationer af mænd
We, The Drowned
INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER. We, The Drowned is an epic novel about generations of men who go to sea and the women and children they leave behind. Filled with adventure, cannibals, shrunken heads, prophetic dreams, forbidden passions, cowards, heroes, tragedies, love, and survival, this book takes its place among the greatest seafaring literature. We, the Drowned is the story of the port town of Marstal, Denmark, whose inhabitants sailed the world from the mid-nineteenth century to the end of the Second World War. The novel tells of ships wrecked and blown up in wars, of places of terror and violence that continue to lure each generation. The result is a brilliant seafaring novel, a gripping saga encompassing industrial growth, the years of expansion and exploration, the crucible of the first half of the twentieth century, and most of all, the sea. 'We, the Drowned sets sail beyond the narrow channels of the seafaring genre and approaches Tolstoy in its evocation of war's confusion, its

Hans und Wassili Luckhardt
The architectural work of Hans and Wassili Luckhardt (1890–1954/1889–1972) is not yet adequately appreciated. As members of the Glass Chain initiative and the Ring collective, they shaped, especially through their work with Alfons Anker, the development of Modernist architecture in the 1920s, as evidenced by their winning design for the layout of Berlin’s Alexanderplatz. While their early work was anchored in utopian expressionism, a more objective attitude emerged later, based on the application of new architectural constructs. The book documents all 40 of Hans und Wassili Luckhardt’s realized buildings. Two essays deal with the unbuilt and utopian projects. Newly taken photographs and newly drawn plans by Carsten Krohn complement the historical illustrations. * Comprehensive documentation of the work of Hans and Wassili Luckhardt. * * With approx. 80 new photographs and 80 newly drawn plans by Carsten Krohn
