What is it about dystopian fiction that keeps readers going back for more? Are we suckers for punishment? Maybe we find comfort in the reminder that yes, things could be worse. Dystopian fiction has been around since the 19th century. Mary Shelley, famous for her fictional monster Frankenstein, was one of the first writers to venture into the bleak world of dystopia with her 1826 novel, The Last Man, but the genre didn't explode until after WWII and the introduction of nuclear weapons. For decades, writers from H.G. Wells to Margaret Atwood have been creating dystopian futures that are both beyond our wildest imaginations and shockingly close to home. In this list of the best dystopian novels, extreme cosmetic surgery is enforced, America breaks into a second Civil War, and animals rebel. Prepare to be disturbed, and utterly enthralled.
Similar to our list of 100 (Fiction) Books to Read in a Lifetime, this list of 50 non-fiction books contains recommendations you might actually read (if you haven't already). This curated list covers the gamut of non-fiction, from compelling war stories to key feminist texts, to unbelievable struggles for survival, to tales of life in the culinary trade. You may not completely agree with our recommendations, there are surely key titles missing, so please share your recommendations for essential non-fiction books everyone should read.
Postkarten wurden um die Wende des 20. Jahrhunderts populär, vorallem um Freunden und Verwandten kurze Nachrichten zu senden. Bereits von Beginn an wurden sie aufbewahrt und haben heute insbesondere in den Themengebieten der Popkultur, Fotografie, Werbung, Kriegszeit und auch der nationalen Geschichte den Sammlerstatus erreicht. Bei Vintage-Postkarten bestimmen Gegenstand, Zustand und Seltenheit sowie die allgemeine Nachfrage den Wert. Auf AbeBooks.de können Sie nicht nur nach Vintage-Postkarten Ihrer Stadt suchen, sondern auch nach Bildern von berühmten Künstlern, Schauspielern, historischen Ansichtskarten und vielem mehr.
