Anker has lots of good ideas, for example, turning his bed into a castle or hiding something in his breakfast.Alberte Winding (born 1963) is a Danish singer, actress and writer.

Star Maker by Olaf Stapledon is a visionary work of speculative fiction that transcends traditional science fiction to become a profound philosophical and cosmic exploration of existence. First published in 1937, this groundbreaking novel follows an unnamed narrator who embarks on a journey of the mind through space, time, and consciousness in search of the ultimate creator-the mysterious "Star Maker." Beginning with the narrator's departure from Earth, the story quickly expands into a vast survey of countless civilizations, alien worlds, and cosmic epochs. Stapledon introduces readers to entire galactic cultures, collective intelligences, and evolving species that rise, flourish, and fall across billions of years. Each encounter reveals new forms of life, ethics, and spirituality, challenging human-centered views of intelligence and progress. At the heart of the novel lies the search for meaning in an indifferent universe. The narrator eventually confronts the Star Maker-a godlike force that creates and destroys universes in an eternal cycle of experimentation and detachment. The encounter raises profound questions about creativity, suffering, and the nature of divine intention. With its immense scope, bold imagination, and philosophical ambition, Star Maker is considered one of the most influential works in science fiction literature. It inspired writers such as Arthur C. Clarke and C.S. Lewis and remains a touchstone for readers interested in cosmic perspectives and metaphysical inquiry. A breathtaking blend of fiction and philosophical speculation, Star Maker invites us to contemplate our place in the infinite.

Le Concile est signe et cause d'une immense accélération de l'histoire de l'Église. L'Église ancienne aspire à renaître sous des traits nouveaux. Est-il possible de traduire, en une formule, le secret, l'âme et l'acquisition essentielle du deuxième Concile du Vatican ? L'auteur du présent ouvrage, expert du Concile, a pensé que les symboles et les faits réunis tenaient en une proposition qui, plus qu'un intinéraire géographique, traduisait un cheminement spirituel : De Rome à Jérusalem. En trente-neuf courts essais, il tente de dégager le sens du pontificat de Jean XXIII, et l'évolution des esprits au Concile. Il montre les thèmes et les problèmes, et fait ressortir leur centre d'unité et leurs implications. Il analyse les lignes de force présentes au Concile, et interprète leur poids respectif. Enfin, il établit des perspectives d'avenir. Ainsi, il apparaît qu'il n'est d'autre secret de la présence renouvelée de l'Église au monde, que le retour à cela même qui lui a donné naissance. Retour à Jérusalem, nouveau départ d'une Église apostolique et pérégrinante, envoyée pour être le sel de la Terre et la lumière du monde...
