Tom, ' I said, bracing myself for the threat that was sure to follow. 'I need to talk to you about something. About leaving here, I mean.' He didn't hit me. Didn't threaten. Instead, he looked at me with great sadness. 'Who saved your life?' 'You, ' I replied, 'but...' 'Who takes care of you?' 'I know that, ' I told him. 'I just can't live like this.' 'You can't live?

The Passio Sanctarum Perpetuae et Felicitatis, also known as The Passion of Saints Perpetua and Felicity, is the first extant diary authored by a Christian woman.

Was für eine Stadt! München, das ist viel mehr als nur ein Ort zum Leben. München ist Millionenstadt und Dorf, erfrischend weltoffen und typisch bayerisch, kunterbunt und blau-weiß. München, das haben die Autorinnen Eva-Maria Bast und Heike Thissen festgestellt, ist aber vor allem eines: geheimnisvoll! Abseits der vielbegangenen Wege schlummern Relikte aus vergangenen Zeiten, hinter denen große Geschichten stecken. Wobei: Manchmal liegen die Relikte gar nicht mal so abseits - sondern befinden sich mitten im Geschehen. Jeder sieht sie, aber keiner kennt ihre Geschichte. Das Besondere liegt im Alltäglichen, doch das Auge sieht es nicht. Oder haben Sie schon einmal bemerkt, dass das Kreuz auf dem Alten Peter in die falsche Richtung zeigt? Wussten Sie, wo in München "P575" in einen Ziegelstein geritzt ist und welche Geschichte dahinter steht? Und was es mit einem kleinen roten Strich am Erzbischöflichen Palais auf sich hat? Nein? Dieses Buch gibt Antwort auf all diese und 47 weit...
