John Cheever 27777

Kroniek van de familie Wapshot

van Gennep, 2013. Paperback. Pp: 334. Aan de kust in de fictieve havenplaats St. Botolphs woont de familie Wapshot. De niet zo stuurvaste zeerob Leander Wapshot en zijn vrouw hebben twee zoons, Moses en Coverly. De familie wordt onderhouden door de oude, excentrieke nicht Honora. Zij heeft het familiegeld tot haar beschikking en heeft één doel: de naam van het vermaarde, de wereldzeeën bedwingende geslacht Wapshot in stand houden. Ze wil niets liever dan dat Moses en Coverly een net meisje huwen en zorgen voor een nieuwe generatie Wapshots. Maar dat is nog niet zo makkelijk. In deze nog niet eerder vertaalde debuutroman geeft Cheever een onvergetelijk beeld van het leven in New England, de thuisbasis van vrijwel al zijn verhalen. Geestig, verrassend en met tal van fantasievolle uitweidingen laat Cheever de keerzijde van de American Dream zien. Gebruik makend van de conventies van de familiekroniek roept hij een beeld op van een wat duisterder Amerika, waar de spanningen rond geloof, klassenverschillen en seksualiteit onder de oppervlakte broeien. ISBN: 9789461641694. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Het schandaal van de familie Wapshot

Gennep B.V. Uitgeverij Van, 2015. Paperback. Moses en Coverly Wapshot zijn weer terug. Na het onvergetelijke Kroniek van de familie Wapshot raken de levens van de verschillende familieleden op drift in het razendsnel veranderende leven van het Amerika van de jaren vijftig.Geboren en getogen in het dorpje St. Botolphs in New England zijn ze eigenlijk niet goed toegerust op dat nieuwe leven. Wetenschap en technologie brengen welvaart maar ook angst, het heelal wordt verkend, maar een nucleaire oorlog ligt op de loer, de consumptiemaatschappij brengt met nieuwe technieken haar waren aan de man. In deze heksenketel raken de levens van Moses en Coverly verstrikt, hun huwelijken lopen op de klippen, en als de belastingdienst het fortuin van tante Honora op het spoor komt en ontdekt dat ze nog nooit belasting heeft betaald, komt het einde definitief in zicht.Hilarische en ontroerende scènes wisselen elkaar razendsnel af in deze virtuoze roman, die weer geschreven is in de messcherpe en zintuiglijke stijl die zo kenmerkend is voor het werk van John Cheever en ook deze keer in prachtig Nederlands werd overgezet door meestervertaler Guido Golüke. 'In deze roman etaleert Cheever zijn waanzinnig intuïtieve inzicht in de menselijke diersoort.'Dave Eggers'Cheever, briljant schrijver (.) behoort tot de literaire giganten.' Jessica Durlacher'Werkelijk een prachtig boek.' Maarten 't hart. ISBN: 9789461643490. Cond./Kwaliteit: Ramsj.
