Het is 2001. De Amerikaanse zakenman Roger Gordian heeft zijn imperium uitgebreid tot in de ruimte. Hij heeft een grote opdracht binnengehaald met het ontwerp en de bouw van Orion, een internationaal ruimtestation. Maar de lancering van een shuttle met onderdelen voor het station wordt gesaboteerd. En de produktie-eenheden in Brazilië en Kazachstan komen onder vuur te liggen van geheimzinnige guerillagroeperingen. Goridans diepste angsten worden bewaarheid. Het Orion-project is het doelwit geworden van internationale terroristische ondernemingen die gewelddadig opereren en die uit zijn op politieke instabiliteit. En het is de terrorist Harlan DeVane die alles in het werk stelt om Gordians veiligheids- en beveiligingsteams uit te schakelen met één verschrikkelijk doel voor ogen: hij wil Orion voorzien van een geavanceerd wapen dat het vermogen heeft om alle grote Amerikaanse steden in chaos te storten...

These diaries cover the years 1910 to 1923, the year before Kafka’s death at the age of forty. They provide a penetrating look into life in Prague and into Kafka’s accounts of his dreams, his feelings for the father he worshipped, and the woman he could not bring himself to marry, his sense of guilt, and his feelings of being an outcast. They offer an account of a life of almost unbearable intensity.From the Trade Paperback edition.The Diaries of Franz Kafka 1910-13 translated from the German by Joseph KreshThe Diaries of Franz Kafka 1914-23 translated from the German by Martin Greenberg with the cooperation of Hannah Arendt
