Story6
In 1902, a radical vegetarian and nudist from Nuremberg named August Engelhardt set sail for what was then called the Bismarck Archipelago. His destination: the island Kabakon. His goal: to found a colony based on worship of the sun and coconuts. His malnourished body was found on the beach on Kabakon in 1919; he was 43 years old. Christian Kracht's Imperium uses the outlandish details of Engelhardt's life to craft a fable about the allure of extremism and its fundamental foolishness.

Story19
Realising he and she are the very worst kind of people, a middle-aged man embarks on a dubious road trip through Switzerland with his eighty-year-old mother, recently discharged from a mental institution. Traversing the country in a hired cab, they attempt to give away the wealth she has amassed from investing in the arms industry, but a fortune of such immensity is surprisingly hard to squander. Haunted in different ways by the figure of her father, an ardent supporter of Nazism, mother and son can no longer avoid delving into the darkest truths about their past.

Story7
"I'll see you in twenty-five years." Laura Palmer. "Also, ich musste wieder auf ein paar Tage nach Zürich. Es war ganz schrecklich. Aus Nervosität darüber hatte ich mich das gesamte verlängerte Wochenende über so unwohl gefühlt, dass ich unter starker Verstopfung litt. Dazu muss ich sagen, dass ich vor einem Vierteljahrhundert eine Geschichte geschrieben hatte, die ich aus irgendeinem Grund, der mir nun nicht mehr einfällt, 'Faserland' genannt hatte. Es endet in Zürich, sozusagen auf dem Zürichsee, relativ traumatisch."

Story2
Christian Krachts neuer Roman führt uns mitten in die wilden, fiebrigen Jahre der Weimarer Republik, als die Filmkultur ihre frühe Blüte erlebte. In Berlin versucht ein Schweizer Filmregisseur, angestachelt von Siegfried Kracauer und Lotte Eisner, den UFA-Tycoon Hugenberg zur Finanzierung eines Film zu überreden, genauer gesagt: Eines Gruselfilms, genauer gesagt: In Japan. Das überschneidet sich mit ebensolchen Plänen im dortigen Kaiserreich, mit denen man dem entstehenden Hollywood-Imperium Paroli bieten will.
