Home sweet home: A cosy, stylish home is the best guarantee of relaxation and mental peace. The road to that peace can be rocky at times, though. Loriot shares the traps of buying a house, the pitfalls of renovation and the trials of moving home in over 100 pictures and cartoons. But also the joys of interior design: our home shall be a mirror of our inner life.

The modern individual is constantly travelling, be it in their professional life or on vacation. In over 100 pictures and cartoons, Loriot illustrates how not to lose one’s head on car, train, sea or air trips, and how to demonstrate one’s worldliness on the beach, in a tent, at a hotel and in exotic locations.

Moving words for happy events, children, dogs, white mice, birds, friends, celebrities and so forth.

Loriot’s legendary television sketches in an opulent four-colour printing luxury volume. Loriot’s sketches wrote television history. Millions of Germans know entire dialogues by heart, quotes such as »my duck will not share the bathwater with you« have become common parlance. When Loriot gave his collected sketches the title Dramatic Works, he had no idea that he really would become one of the most-performed German dramatists of his time. Now this essential volume is finally available in an expanded edition with a modern layout and colour stills from the television sketches and animated films.

Discover a new side to Germany's most famous comedian and caricaturist. ›Spätlese‹ collects previously unknown gems from his estate: early picture stories, sketches for friends and acquaintances and the surprising ›nightshades‹ which Loriot created in the sleepless hours of his final years. A feast for all lovers of fine humour. The first Loriot book with unpublished drawings to be released in 30 years!

The best dramatic stories by Loriot accompanied by colour images from the animated films: ›Gentlemen in the Bath‹, ›Where Are They Running?‹, ›The Interview‹, ›Television Night‹, ›The Breakfast Egg‹, ›The Talking Dog‹ and ›Work's Over‹.

We all need to eat. What matters is the what and the how of it. In 100 pictures and cartoons, Loriot introduces us to the secrets of German cuisine, teaches us table manners, correct behaviour in a restaurant and responsible dealings with alcohol and other enjoyable substances.

Contents: ›Gentlemen in the Bath, Where are They Running?, The Interview, Television Evening, The Breakfast Egg, The Talking Dog, Knocking-off Time‹. Nearly everyone knows them, Mr Müller-Lüdenscheidt and Dr. Klöbner! It is rare indeed for literary figures to achieve such independence. They can justifiably be counted among the best-known living German personalities.

A valuable advice book for cheerful days at the office, in more than 100 sketches. On carefree communication with subordinates and superiors, special kinds of customer contact, and calmly undermining one’s dear colleagues. With tips and tricks for work life balance – »enjoyable physical diversions can make the debilitating office hours between meals much less horrific.«

Who isn't familiar with it, that irksome obligation of immortalising oneself in guest books when visiting people? Loriot's guests had an easier run of it. The master of the house would photograph them instead, always against the same backdrop, and in a variety of poses. Friends, relatives, colleagues and fellow artists posed for Vicco von Bülow, alongside a pillar and in front of a curtain. Over the years, an extensive photo gallery came into being. Loriot's ›Guestbook‹ is a personal document, an amusing panorama of society and a condensed chronicle of changing fashions.

Every single year! Even if there used to be more tinsel, Christmas is still at its most beautiful with Loriot. Alongside the legendary Advent story, this volume collects together more than 100 illustrations about industrious party preparations, presents that are guaranteed to delight and contemplative moments on Christmas Eve.

Please note: A calm Christmas is the result of a lack of imagination. A deafening racket is proof that Christmas isn’t just an empty word for you.
