Despite conflict...

Zadig ehk Saatus

Voltaire

Zadig ehk Saatus

Raamatu sündmused toimuvad muistses Babülonis ning allegooriline seiklusterohke lugu pajatab voorusliku Zadigi õnneotsingutest. Voltaire vihjab Zadigi teekonna kaudu, et maailm on täis kurjust, tühiseid kirgi ja väiklust ning et inimesed ise pole muud kui «üksteist õgivad putukad väikesel porikübemel». Täiuslik kord valitseb ehk kusagil kõrgemate olendite seas, kuid siin maailmas peab inimene leppima oma saatusega, mis inimesest endast sõltub vähe.

Kodumaja

Erik Tohvri

Kodumaja

Edukal ärimehel Leho Kuuslal näib kõik olevat omal kohal – ta on suutnud rajada hästitöötava ettevõtte, tal on piltilus naine ja üheteistaastane teadmishimuline poeg. Tundub, et täiuslikuks perekonnaõnneks puudub vaid korralik eramu, tõeline kodumaja, sest Kuuslad asuvad seni tavalise korruselamu kolmetoalises korteris.

Lahusolekust hoolimata

Väline identsus ei garanteeri sisemist sarnasust: kaksikuid Aldot ja Vincenzot ei suuda eristada isegi nende lihane ema, kuid meeste iseloomud on täiesti erinevad. Kui Vincenzo venda paariks nädalaks ennast asendama palub – mängima pruutpaaride salongi omanikku ning veetleva Micaela peigmeest –, viib see väike seik täiesti ettearvamatute tulemusteni.

Phobos & Deimos

John Moehl

Phobos & Deimos

Many of us live dual lives, as though we live in two worlds. This divergence is perhaps greatest for those embedded in what may be called «multiculturalism.» Multicultural people, with their unique life experiences, are migrating around the globe, carrying their own baggage while they face the demands of living in new and strange lands. The short stories in this collection look at the daily tests facing people, frequently in Africa, as they struggle to survive, often in a rapidly changing world....
