The six author of our application fit in the aim of our publishing house that we do not only publish works from the two large – German and Austrian – cultures of German-speaking literature, but also turn our attention to the periphery of the language area; e. g., Switzerland, Liecthtenstein or Luxembourg, as well as the representatives of German minorities. The book Pannonische Novelle by Johannes Weidenheim, the German writer of Yugoslavian past deals with the Yugoslavian past, but on the long run it also remembers the final destroy of the more beautiful days of the Schwab German minority in Hungary. In the two novels by Johann Lippet entitled Die Tür zur hinteren Küche and Das Feld räumen built on each other the author tells the chances of the family after the World War II: they migrate from Austria back Bánság, Romania, where due to their ethnic German status they have to live as a minority in the period of the dictatorship. The nostalgic novel Kirschholz und alte Gefühle by Marica Bodrožić, the female writer of Croatian descent deals with the topic which life is correct and whom can one become in a network surrounding everything, evolved from language, silence, knowledge and memories? The love story of the novel Amateur by Jean Back, the Luxembourgian German-speaking writer is only a basis for the experiments of the author with which he is searching for the answer for the chances and risks of literature. The Austrian Paulus Hochgatterer in his crime story entitled Die Süße des Lebens draws a psychogram of a town the inhabitants of which are excited by troubles, scandals and murders and suspect everyone and everyone can be exposed to gossips. Another historical crime story – there is a victim and we know who the murderer is. A masterfully solved and told crime.
