Story
„Sonnenuntergang“ ist eine wunderschöne, philosophische Erzählung von Theodor Herzl, der mit seiner Schreibkunst Berge versetzte. Theodor Herzl (* 2. Mai 1860 in Pest, dem heutigen Budapest; † 3. Juli 1904 in Edlach, Gemeinde Reichenau an der Rax, Niederösterreich), war ein österreichischer Schriftsteller, Publizist, Journalist und zionistischer Politiker. Seine hebräischen Vornamen waren Binyamin Ze'ev. Er schrieb 1896 anlässlich antisemitischer Tendenzen in Paris sein Buch Der Judenstaat, das wesentlich zur Gründung des modernen Staates Israel im Jahr 1948 beitrug.

Zwei wunderschöne, philosophische Erzählungen über den Frühling von Theodor Herzl, der mit seiner Schreibkunst Berge versetzte. Mächtig berührend, der Markt und aller Verkehr wird davon beeinflusst. In Wien hieß eine Gasse „Im Elend“, der junge Grillparzer hat glaub ich da gewohnt. Auf der nördlichen Halbkugel der Erde spielt sich jetzt eine der merkwürdigsten Begebenheiten ab. Es gibt wenig politische Ereignisse die sich damit an Bedeutung messen können, tief greift es in die Schicksale der Völker ein, dabei auch den Einzelnen an Leib und Seele...

Story
Ein nicht näher bestimmtes Wesen, offensichtlich ein dachsähnliches Tier, hat sich einen vielfältig gestalteten unterirdischen Bau errichtet. Er dient als Schutz und gut bestückte Vorratsräumlichkeit. Das Tier wird beherrscht von der Vorstellung, sich gegen einen wie auch immer gearteten Feind durch eine Optimierung des Baues schützen zu können. Zunächst ist das Tier sehr zufrieden in seinem Bau. Es schlummert häufig friedlich darin und frisst von seinen Vorräten, aber auch vom Kleingetier, das mit im Bau haust. Besonders die Stille ist wohltuend für das Tier.

Story
Ein Hungerkünstler lebt zunächst in Zeiten, in denen in der Öffentlichkeit ein reges Interesse an seiner Kunst besteht. In seinem Gitterkäfig wird er vom Publikum von Hungertag zu Hungertag interessiert begutachtet und bewundert. Für den Hungerkünstler ist aber das andauernde Hungern „die leichteste Sache von der Welt“. Er leidet darunter, dass man ihm das nicht glaubt, ihm möglicherweise sogar unterstellt, geschickt heimlich zu essen, oder ihm zumindest absichtlich die Möglichkeit dazu gibt. Zudem besteht sein Impresario darauf, dass er nach vierzig Tagen das Hungern beenden solle.

Eine wunderschöne, philosophische Erzählung von Theodor Herzl, der mit seiner Schreibkunst Berge versetzte. Wenn man uns das vor zehn Jahren gesagt hätte, nein, noch vor fünf oder drei oder zwei Jahren, ernsthafte Leute würden sich das als respektwidrige Zumutung, mit einer gewissen Trockenheit verbeten haben. Es war die allzu muntere Leibesübung junger Burschen oder lächerlicher Sportsnarren.

Story
„Das höchst private Ende meiner kindlichen und jugendlichen Ratlosigkeit“ – so bezeichnete Rainer Maria Rilke (1875, Prag – 1926, Val-Mont) die literarischen Versuche seiner Jugendzeit. Auch wenn der Dichter selbst seine frühen Prosaarbeiten offensichtlich nicht so hoch einschätzte, so sind diese Arbeiten mehr als lesenswert: es geht in diesen frühen Erzählungen und Skizzen (sie sind zwischen 1893 und 1903 entstanden) immer wieder um Liebe und Tod, um Themen, die Rilke Zeit seines Lebens in ihren Bann zogen.

Er war noch ein junger Mensch, am Anfang der Dreißig etwa, und im Laufe der Zeit ergab sich, dass er der Firma unentbehrlich geworden war. Damit sein großes Talent sich aber ganz durchsetzen könne, war es notwendig, dass er seine Kenntnisse sowohl nach der künstlerischen, wie nach der technischen Seite vervollkommne.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Yet a more immediate threat lurks to the south, where Jon Arryn, the Hand of the King, has died under mysterious circumstances....
