Jo, vel er 'Jutlandia', 'Kvindemin' og 'Papirsklip' dejlige sange, men Kim Larsen efterlod sig heldigvis mange flere numre, som sagtens kunne være en del af den nationale sangskat, hvis ikke de var druknet i Larsens enorme katalog. I Værsgo – Den ultimative guide til Kim Larsens plader gennemgår de to glade Larsen-beundrere Søren E. Jensen og Klaus Lynggaard hele værket; lige fra de første singler med Gasolin’ til Kim Larsens smukke svanesang, 'Øst for Vesterled', fra 2017 og hele tiden med et sideblik til sjældne eller sågar uudgivne numre. Guiden er ikke bare en hjælp til alle dem, der ikke har kræfterne til at lytte sig igennem Kim Larsens mange plader (langt over 30 blev det til plus det løse), men fungerer også som inspiration til at få garvede kendere af Larsens værk til at lytte med nye ører. For måske skulle man høre 'Kielgasten' en gang til, og muligvis er den engelske afdeling af Kim Larsen slet ikke så slem, som fordommen lyder?

Stephen Fry indfanger den græske mytologis vindunderlige historier og dens relevans for den moderne læser. De græske myter er blandt de mest indflydelsesrige historier, der nogensinde er blevet fortalt, nedarvet gennem årtusinder. De har inspireret forfattere og kunstnere fra Shakespeare til Michelangelo og fra James Joyce til Walt Disney. Historierne er dybt forankret i den vestlige kulturs DNA og tradition. I Stephen Frys hænder bliver fortællingerne om titanerne og guderne en underholdende og velfortalt indføring i krigsførelse, rivalisering, tilbedelse, erotik, kærlighed, livsvisdom, triumfer og tragedie. "I en tid præget af hastig glemsel og grov overfladiskhed er det en vigtig gestus, Fry gør med Mythos, der sigter efter at genfortælle de vigtigste græske myter, så alle er velkomne; det skal være en fornøjelse. Kan anbefales både til folk og fæ, unge som gamle, vidende såvel som ignoranter." Weekendavisen "Mythos af Stephen Fry er en humoristisk og episk genfortælling af de græske myter ... Mythos var en fremragende læseoplevelse og i skrivende stund årets bedste. Så hvis du er til græske fortællinger, der kan lidt noget andet end Homers trivielle vers, så er Mythos et fint supplement til din samling." Titlen.dk, 5 af 5 stjerner. "En helt fantastisk genfortælling af den lidenskabelige og krigeriske græske mytologi. Stephen Frys store kærlighed til den græske mytologi er tydelig gennem hele bogen, og han sprog er velvalgt, humoristisk uden at dominere …" Lektør "Fornøjeligt uformel, og alligevel fuld af den litterære arv." The Guardian "Perfekt til det 21. århundrede." The Times "Myterne er genfortalt med både humor og med så naturlig en stemme, at det bliver charmerende og en virkelig god læseoplevelse." Litteraterne.com "Den græske mytologis væsen bliver vagt til live og genfortalt på charmerende og levende vis af Stephen Fry." Trolderier.dk, 5 af 5 stjerner "Alt i alt har Stephen Fry skrevet en fremragende bog ... Man behøver ikke at være historisk interesseret for at læse denne bog - den er bare underholdende, fascinerende og fængslende - så sæt i gang ..." Bogfidusen.dk, 6 af 6 stjerner

I 1946 blev topnazisten Hans Frank, generalguvernør i Polen, dømt til døden ved Nürnbergdomstolen. Kort efter blev han hængt af de allierede for sine krigsforbrydelser og forbrydelser mod menneskeheden, der blandt andet indebar en central rolle i tvangsdeportationerne i Polen.I det autobiografiske værk Faderen – Et opgør hidkalder Franks voksne søn Niklas sin far fra “Helvedes dyb”. Det gør han med det ene mål for øje at føre faderen gennem endnu en domsproces, hvor sønnen spiller rollen som anklager, dommer og bøddel. Faderen – Et opgør er en bog om et bittert, brændende og skamfuldt faderhad; den er et litterært fadermord af dimensioner, men handler samtidig også om en håbløs søgen efter den ene lille gerning, der kan vende hadet til kærlighed.
