Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The fates of universes aren't the only things time travel can impact. Sometimes the effect is a lot more mundane and closer to home. And when that happens, it's up to the cops of Themis Division to make time turn out right. It was supposed to be a routine trip for the members of the Gordian Division, both human and AI: fly out to Saturn, inspect the construction of their latest time machines, then fly back. But when the division's top scientist and chief engineer are killed in the same freak accident, suspicions of foul play run deep. Detective Isaac Cho is sent in to investigate, but he has more on his mind than just a new case. His superiors have saddled him with an exchange officer from the neighboring Admin-Special Agent Susan Cantrell-whose notion of proper 'law enforcement' involves blowing up criminals first and skipping questions entirely. Despite his objections, Cho is stuck with an untested partner on a case that increasingly reeks of murder and conspiracy. The unlikely pair must work together to unravel this mystery, and soon they discover their unique combination of skills might just provide the edge they need. But nothing is ever simple where the Gordian Division is involved. Not even time itself'.

0. Özurfa. Katalog hrsg. von Nina Gülicher & Kasper König. Köln/Bozen 2008. Beitr. von Nina Gülicher, Mika Hannula, Donat Keusch, Cigdem Köksal-Schmidt, Klaus Schmidt, Sabri Senbayram, Ebru Okutan-Akalin, Gordian Weber, Armin Zweite. 112 S. mit 164 farb., teils ganzseit. Abb., brosch. - Text in dt., engl., franz., finn. & türk. Sprache. Zwischen den Oberläufen von Euphrat und Tigris liegt die südostanatolische Stadt Urfa, bzw. Sanl?urfa, die jahrhundertelang ein wichtiger Kreuzungspunkt von Handel, Kulturen und Religionen war. Urfa fand in der Namensgebung türkischer Gaststätten den Weg nach Deutschland, wo der Künstler Matti Braun darauf aufmerksam wurde. In dem Buch "Özurfa" entwickelt Braun ein erzählerisches Netz, das sich den kulturellen Mythen Urfas widmet. Den Titel kann man mit echt, authentisch Urfa" übersetzen. Für Matti Braun stellte sich hier die Frage nach der kulturellen Identität, die damit versprochen wird. Ihr wird durch die Beschäftigung mit archäologischen Ausgrabungsorten, religiösen Kultstätten und vielen mit Urfa im Zusammenhang stehenden Personen und Geschichten nachgegangen. Ein kreatives Autorenkollektiv von Kritikern, Literaten, Künstlern und Kuratoren versucht eine Annäherung.
