Am Hang

S. Fischer, 2004. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 192. Der junge Scheidungsanwalt Clarin freut sich auf ein ungestörtes Pfingstwochenende in seinem Tessiner Ferienhaus, wo er einen Aufsatz für eine Fachzeitschrift schreiben möchte. Am ersten Abend lernt er auf der Terrasse des Hotels Bellavista einen älteren Mann kennen, einen scheinbar Verwirrten, einen Verrückten vielleicht. Sie reden und debattieren bis tief in die Nacht, und allmählich erzählen sie sich auch ihre Geschichten und Liebesgeschichten. Was als stockendes Gespräch zwischen Zufallsbekannten begonnen hat, entwickelt eine fiebrige, beklemmende Dynamik, der sich weder Clarin noch der Leser entziehen kann. Es sind zweifelhafte Umstände, unter denen Loos seine geliebte, fast vergötterte Frau verloren hat, und dieser Verlust scheint ihm die Welt schwer und verhasst zu machen. Clarin hingegen lebt leicht und gern. - Ferner könnten zwei Menschen einander nicht sein. Wie nah sie sich sind, stellt sich erst spät heraus. ISBN: 9783100910660. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

Tamsin Calidas 207916

I am an island

Black Swan / Penguin, 2021. Paperback. Pp: 320. When Tamsin Calidas first arrives on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides, it feels like coming home. Disenchanted by London, she and her husband left the city and high-flying careers to move the 500 miles north, despite having absolutely no experience of crofting, or of island life. It was idyllic, for a while. But as the months wear on, the children she'd longed for fail to materialise, and her marriage breaks down, Tamsin finds herself in ever-increasing isolation. Injured, ill, without money or friend she is pared right back, stripped to becoming simply a raw element of the often harsh landscape. But with that immersion in her surroundings comes the possibility of rebirth and renewal. Tamsin begins the slow journey back from the brink. Startling, raw and extremely moving, I Am An Island is a story about the incredible ability of the natural world to provide when everything else has fallen away - a stunning book about solitude, friendship, resilience and self-discovery.
