Regardless of where your suitcase goes next, you can cultivate a feeling of home in the place it matters most - yourself. How do you navigate the changes that come with moving across the country, or perhaps perpetually around the globe?

Here are elite soldiers, kibbutz-born, battle-bred. Their stories reveal their minds and souls, and what has tempered and annealed their hearts. They are citizen soldiers all - many officers - who refused career military appointments and returned to civilian life, as much as one can be a civilian in Israel. Descendants of Isaac who, like modern-day Ishmaels, seek peace while pursuing the Leviathan of war. Or are pursued by it. They also search for inner peace.

Karl Eskelund og hans rejsemakker og hustru, Chi-Yun, drog i starten af 1960‘erne til Persien, som på det tidspunkt havde været regeret af en shah i 2500 år. Derfra beretter de om et land, hvor forskellige folkeslag, styreformer og religioner, gamle og nye traditioner stod overfor hinanden i skarp kontrast. Bogen giver et unikt indblik i det iranske samfund og dets kultur i årene før den islamiske revolution i 1979, der ikke bare afskaffede det 2500 år gamle monarki, men også gjorde op med tusindvis af kritikere og oldgamle traditioner. Karl Johannes Eskelund (1918-1972) var en dansk fo

"Den gamle sti har ført mig helt ned til Midal, der er nutidens navn for det gamle Magdala. En arabisk hyrde står mellem kvæget på den stenede græsslette og morer sig med fra tid til anden at kaste sten ud i Genezareth sø. Da han er blevet træt af dette tidsfordriv, går han et stykke op i terrænet, hvor han har anbragt en transistorradio. Han stiller ind på senderen i det jordanske Amman og klagende arabiske toner lyder ud over den stenede grund, der engang husede de boliger i Magdala, som Jesus og Peter og Maria Magdalene må have kendt så godt.

Istanbul, com'è stata chiamata fin dalla conquista ottomana del 1453, ma com'è denominata ufficialmente solo all'indomani della Prima guerra mondiale. "Nèa Ryme", Nuova Roma, secondo il suo nome ufficiale. Costantinopoli, il suo vero nome, da sempre e per sempre. Un nome che evoca immagini mirabili: il sogno dell'Oriente, le lontananze raggiungibili attraverso il Bosforo e l'Anatolia. Le moschee, gli harem, i sufi danzanti, gli aromi dei bazar. Da mezzo millennio l'Europa identifica in quella sola città il prezioso anello di congiunzione fra l'antichità perduta e la modernità.

The secret library is in the basement of a bombed building in a heavily shelled area of Darayya. Around it, shattered buildings that were once homes and offices lie in crumbling, treacherous piles.

Locals fear that Syrian government planes will bomb it if they know where it is.

Fürst Pückler war eine der schillerndsten Gestalten des 19. Jahrhunderts: Er war Aristokrat und Publizist, Abenteurer und Frauenheld, Landschaftsgärtner und Reiseschriftsteller, der für Eindrücke und Erlebnisse so aufgeschlossen war wie nur wenige seiner Zeitgenossen. 1835 startete er seine Reise in den Orient, die fast fünf Jahre dauern und ihn nach Algier, Tunis, Ägypten, Sudan, Jerusalem, Syrien und Konstantinopel führen sollte. Heinz Klevenow, Christian Rode und Günter Witte lesen aus seinen Berichten, die so lebendig sind wie die Reise selbst.
