  • Die Welt und ich, ein etwas unausgewogenes Verhältnis

    Neue Satiren aus deutscher und amerikanischer Sicht

    Wie gerne schielt man über den Atlantik, von hüben nach drüben, mit Bewunderung und mit Spott. Wieviele Missverständnisse gibt es nicht allenthalben, und auch der Alltag erweist sich als manchmal recht verdrießlich.

  • Amerikanische Satiren

    Amerika ist schon ein schrulliges Land, vielleicht weil so viele Menschen aus der ganzen Welt hier ankommen, vielleicht aber auch, weil es so groß und immer noch so jung ist.
