summer, sun, beach, mountains - Quick Read The summer holidays are over, school starts again. Therefore, the time of the endless reading on the beach of the Baltic Sea or in the evening is over after a hike in the Alps. As my holiday but has made just as I shall now on preparing the books I've read.
Sooooo, let's go with "The Flying Trautmann" by Miriam Toews
The book goes to Hattie, her niece Thebes and her nephew Logan. Hattie, in Paris lives, get one night a phone call from Thebes, which now asks Hattie to come. For Min, Thebes mother and sister, Hattie, is depressed and her condition has deteriorated to the point that they need treatment. But now the father of two children moved out long ago. Hattie decides now to go to America and with her 11-year-old niece, who has matted hair purple and, like a hip hop artist speaks, and her 15-year-old nephew Logan, who made the grade provisional driving license and strong in puberty (Thebes calls it "revolutionary"), to make their way to seek the father who has settled somewhere near the border with Mexico. The three go with her broken Los van, across America.
The book is really funny, the dialogue while driving to serene moments, but it's also sad and makes you think, because on the trip noted each of the three how much he or she is affected by the disease by Min but failed to make allegations.
The book is still more funny than sad, and therefore a great book for a long train ride or a nice evening beach (about 250 pages).
personally I liked the little lake in Silbertal best, amazing how everything is reflected in the water. 
Take a boat trip from New York to Buenos Aires is the narrator of the arrogant world chess champion, Mirko Czentovic only close when this agreed, to all amateur players together to play a game. As this seems lost, Dr. B. intervenes in the game and brings out a draw against Czentovic yet. By Dr. B's strange game fever curious, the narrator wants to know more about him. Then he tells Dr. B. from his months of solitary confinement in the Vienna Gestapo prison where he escaped the asylum are only in that he act out of a stolen chess book chess games. When he then began to play against himself, he suffered a sort of "chess poisoning," which brought in from the edge of madness, but had his release from prison, the consequence. The game against Czentovic Dr. B's first game was ever since. The second game he is playing alone against the world champion, he won sovereignty. In the rematch, however, again shows all the symptoms of the "Chess poisoning," whereupon Dr. B. cancels the game and no longer wants to touch chess pieces.

Frank Goosen told in his football stories of how he experienced stadium courses or discussion with the neighbors to the number one in the Ruhr (from his point of view of Vfl Bochum). The chapters are always telling other stories, but have yet a context. There are, for example, game-diaries of the 2006 World Cup and Euro 2008.
