    In die Wildnis
    Im August 1992 wurde die Leiche von Chris McCandless im Eis von Alaska gefunden. Wer war dieser junge Mann, und was hatte ihn in die gottverlassene Wildnis getrieben? Jon Krakauer hat sein Leben erforscht, seine Reise in den Tod rekonstruiert und ein traurig-schönes Buch geschrieben über die Sehnsucht, die diesen Mann veranlasste, sämtliche Besitztümer und Errungenschaften der Zivilisation hinter sich zu lassen, um tief in die wilde und einsame Schönheit der Natur einzutauchen. - Verfilmt von Sean Penn mit Emile Hirsch.

    Into the Wild
    NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE Jon Krakauer's classic account of a gifted young man who chose literally to walk away from his life. By examining the true story of Chris McCandless, a young man, who in 1992 walked deep into the Alaskan wilderness and whose SOS note and emaciated corpse were found four months later, internationally bestselling author Jon Krakauer explores the obsession which leads some people to explore the outer limits of self, leave civilization behind and seek enlightenment through solitude and contact with nature. 'An astonishingly gifted writer: his account of 'Alex Supertramp' is powerfully dramatic, eliciting sympathy for both the idealistic, anti-consumerist boy - and his parents' Guardian 'A compelling tale of tragic idealism' The Times

Food supplies must be supplemented by hunting and gathering. Housing has returned to pioneering expedients. Steve Ambler is a roving trouble shooter, serving a government with an uncertain future.

    The New Order: The Ambler's Travels Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 498min
    Economic collapse has forced sweeping confiscations of real and personal property. The United States converts to a fully managed economy. Much of the population has been forced into, concentrated into, camps in warmer states. A desperate newly autocratic government has created a reformed education system, gigantic make-work salvage operations, and required jobs training programs. Restructuring is rigorous. Stringent military style law enforcement has brought personal safety. This new sense of safety has encouraged a rapid flowering in personal and public attitudes and mores. Those changes transformed people's lives even in remote rural areas. Despite a collapse of the old democratic government, leadership retained the confidence of a grateful citizenry. A new constitutional system is created. An unplanned campaign introduces Alec McCandless to the new center of political power. His path to power has begun in the changed political landscape. That path would eventually bring him to tectonic political power. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Linda Velwest.

    Fontane Numero 1
    Eine Schaffenskrise und das festgefahrene Leben in Mailand bringen Paolo auf die Idee, sich für eine Zeit von der Zivilisation zu verabschieden. Inspiriert von Henry David Thoreau, Chris McCandless und anderen Eremiten mietet er eine Hütte in den Bergen - Fontane Numero 1 -, nicht weit von dort, wo er als Kind die Sommer verbracht hat. Als Ende April das Abenteuer beginnt, erwarten ihn da oben Reste von Schnee, das Rauschen des Winds und das Schweigen der Steine.Das Dasein auf 2000 Meter Höhe bringt die einfachen Dinge zurück: Holz hacken, Feuer machen, die Gegend erkunden, einen Garten anlegen. Paolo spricht mit den Tieren, liest Bücher, hört seltsame Geräusche in der Nacht. Wochenlang sieht er keine Menschenseele, bis aus dem Nebel doch eine Gestalt auftaucht.Paolo Cognettis Hüttenbuch erzählt von der schönen, schrecklichen Einsamkeit, in der man sich selber näherkommt, von einer nicht gekannten Freundschaft und - wir lesen den Beweis - von der Wiederkehr der verlorenenSprache.
