    Abstract: Filiation and affiliation -- Locating affiliations -- Jewish American literary networks beyond English -- The Jewish writer as an old man -- New networks with Israeli writers -- Negotiating continuity : writing about Philip Roth in Israel -- Kashua's complaint : a Palestinian writer meets Roth
    Abstract: "Examining connections between Jewish American authors and Jewish authors elsewhere in America, Europe, and Israel, this book explores a concept of authorial affiliation that emphasizes how writers intentionally highlight their connections with other writers. Starting with Philip Roth as a catalyst, David Hadar reveals a larger network of authors involved in formations of Jewish American literary identity, including among others Cynthia Ozick, Saul Bellow, Nicole Krauss, and Nathan Englander. Whether it's incorporating other writers into fictional work as characters, interviewing them, publishing critical essays about them, or invoking them in paratext or publicity, writers use a variety of methods to forge public personas, craft their own identities as artists, and infuse their art with meaningful cultural associations. Hadar's analysis deepens our understanding of Jewish American and Israeli literature, positioning them in de-centered relation with one another as well as with European writing. The result is a thought-provoking challenge of the concept of homeland, recasting each of these literatures as diasporic and questioning the assumption that Jewish languages necessarily claim centrality in Jewish literatures"--

    Abstract: Der Schöffling & Co. Verlag präsentiert den 2010 im Original erschienenen Roman "Witz" des US-amerikanischen Autors Joshua Cohen (zuletzt "Auftrag für Moving Kings", ID-B 36/19) in hervorragender deutscher Übersetzung. Hauptfigur Benjamin ist der einzige Sohn und das dreizehnte Kind von Hanna und Israel Israelien. Als es zu einer rätselhaften Seuche kommt, an der alle Jüdinnen und Juden der Welt sterben, ist Benjamin der einzige Überlebende. Er wird zunächst zu einer Kultfigur und alles Jüdische wird plötzlich en vogue ... - Der Autor erzählt mit grosser Finesse eine unterhaltsam-absurde Geschichte, um die verkitschte Mystifizierung der Shoah überzeugend anzugreifen. Die Stilelemente des Romans tänzeln verspielt zwischen Schelmenroman und Stand-up-Comedy, zwischen hoher Literatur und dem Trash jener Kultur, die der Autor so überzeugend vorführt. Der umfangreiche Band bietet auch ein ausführliches Glossar des Übersetzers, der hier wahrlich Grosses geleistet hat. Für kleine Bibliotheken wohl ein wenig zu teuer. Allen anderen Beständen mit anspruchsvollen Belletristikabteilungen aber gern empfohlen

    Abstract: Andrei S. Markovits legt mit diesem Buch die bewegte Autobiografie eines jüdischen Intellektuellen in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts vor, geprägt von vielfältigen Orten, Sprachen und Emigrationen. Er analysiert vor allem die Strapazen der doppelten Emigration: aus Rumänien, wo er geboren wurde, nach Wien, wo er zur Schule ging, und von Wien nach New York, wo er an der Columbia University studierte. In Harvard wurde er schließlich zum Sozialwissenschaftler und zu dem Intellektuellen und Professor für Politik und andere Fächer, dessen Leben nicht nur die USA und Europa verbindet, sondern der auch in Deutschland immer wieder in Debatten eingriff und für seinen treffend analysierenden Blick geschätzt wird. Sein Verhältnis zu Deutschland ist – ausgehend von Fragen jüdischer Identität nach der Shoah – immer eine komplexe emotionale Beziehung geblieben. Für Markovits wurde es gerade die Wurzellosigkeit, die ihm sowohl Beistand als auch Inspiration für sein Lebenswerk spendet hat. Er nimmt uns mit auf eine faszinierende Reise durch die Höhen und Tiefen Europas und Amerikas nach 1945, auf der wir seiner Auseinandersetzung mit den wichtigsten politischen, gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Entwicklungen von fünf Jahrzehnten auf zwei Kontinenten begegnen.

    Abstract: Das Drehbuch zu „Being John Malkovich“ hat Charlie Kaufman weltberühmt gemacht. Der erste Roman des Oscar-Preisträgers ist ein neuer Meilenstein der amerikanischen Literatur: B. Rosenberg kriegt nichts auf die Reihe, außer Kritiken zu schreiben, die keiner liest. Der New Yorker Stadtneurotiker prahlt mit der schwarzen Hautfarbe seiner Freundin und wehrt sich gegen die Unterstellung, er sei Jude. Nicht einmal ein Geschlecht will er haben und nennt sich einfach nur B. Dann jedoch stößt er auf den längsten jemals gedrehten Film und hat eine Mission: Er möchte den ungesehenen Film der Welt zeigen. Doch das Meisterwerk geht in Flammen auf, und B. kann es nur nachträumen. Ein unendlicher Spaß, der jeden Rahmen sprengt.

    Abstract: "The renowned biographer's definitive portrait of a literary titan. Appointed by Philip Roth and granted independence and complete access, Blake Bailey spent years poring over Roth's personal archive, interviewing his friends, lovers, and colleagues, and engaging Roth himself in breathtakingly candid conversations. The result is an indelible portrait of an American master and of the postwar literary scene. Bailey shows how Roth emerged from a lower-middle-class Jewish milieu to achieve the heights of literary fame, how his career was nearly derailed by his catastrophic first marriage, and how he championed the work of dissident novelists behind the Iron Curtain. Bailey examines Roth's rivalrous friendships with Saul Bellow, John Updike, and William Styron, and reveals the truths of his florid love life, culminating in his almost-twenty-year relationship with actress Claire Bloom, who pilloried Roth in her 1996 memoir, Leaving a Doll's House. Tracing Roth's path from realism to farce to metafiction to the tragic masterpieces of the American Trilogy, Bailey explores Roth's engagement with nearly every aspect of postwar American culture"--

    Abstract: "Queer Jewish Sendak newly situates Maurice Sendak's life and work in the fields of queer studies, transnational Jewish history, Holocaust memory, and childhood studies. The book iinvestigates how Sendak's writing and creative vision express intersections of queer and Jewish elements in his subjectivity during a time that preceded mainstream acceptance of gay and ethnically Eastern European Jewish cultures and desires. Golan Moskowitz considers picture books, interviews, and extensive archival materials to understand Sendak's artistic investment in the figure of the disenfranchised child"--

    Abstract: Wild Visionary reconsiders Maurice Sendak's life and work in the context of his experience as a Jewish gay man. Maurice (Moishe) Bernard Sendak (1928–2012) was a fierce, romantic, and shockingly funny truth seeker who intervened in modern literature and culture. Raising the stakes of children's books, Sendak painted childhood with the dark realism and wild imagination of his own sensitive "inner child," drawing on the queer and Yiddish sensibilities that shaped his singular voice. Interweaving literary biography and cultural history, Golan Y. Moskowitz follows Sendak from his parents' Brooklyn home to spaces of creative growth and artistic vision—from neighborhood movie palaces to Hell's Kitchen, Greenwich Village, Fire Island, and the Connecticut country home he shared with Eugene Glynn, his partner of more than fifty years. Further, he analyzes Sendak's investment in the figure of the endangered child in symbolic relation to collective touchstones that impacted the artist's perspective—the Great Depression, the Holocaust, and the AIDS crisis. Through a deep exploration of Sendak's picture books, interviews, and previously unstudied personal correspondence, Wild Visionary offers a sensitive portrait of the most beloved and enchanting picture-book artist of our time

    Abstract: In A Hundred Acres of America: The Geography of Jewish American Literary History, Michael Hoberman introduces cultural geography as an alternative approach to the immigrant model. Cultural geography allows Hoberman to restore Jewish American writers to their roles as important, active members of the American literary landscape from the 1850s to the present, and to argue that Jewish history, American literary history, and the inhabitation of American geography are, and always have been, contiguous entities. A Hundred Acres of America makes its case by investigating both canonical and extra-canonical literary depictions of six geographies: the frontier, the small town, the urban, the suburban, America as seen from Europe, and Israel as seen from America. Hoberman reads dozens of representative texts closely, and analyzes a wide range of authors, from frontier-era memoirists and turn-of-the-century native-born reformers to contemporary novelists. He adroitly demonstrates that Jewish American authors are not only present throughout American literary history, but actively shaped this history with writings that often subverted or contradicted the ways their non-Jewish peers depicted these geographies"--

    Abstract: "The Pulitzer finalist delivers his best work yet--a brilliant, streamlined comic novel, reminiscent of early Philip Roth and of his own most masterful stories, about a son's failure to say Kaddish for his father Larry is an atheist in a family of orthodox Memphis Jews. When his father dies, it is his responsibility as the surviving son to recite the Kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the dead, every day for eleven months. To the horror and dismay of his mother and sisters, Larry refuses--thus imperiling the fate of his father's soul. To appease them, and in penance for failing to mourn his father correctly, he hatches an ingenious if cynical plan, hiring a stranger through a website called Kaddish.com to recite the daily prayer and shepherd his father's soul safely to rest. This is Nathan Englander's freshest and funniest work to date--a satire that touches, lightly and with unforgettable humor, on the conflict between religious and secular worlds, and the hypocrisies that run through both. A novel about atonement; about spiritual redemption; and about the soul-sickening temptations of the internet, which, like God, is everywhere"--

New directions and new forms of expression have emerged, both in the invention of narratives and in the methodologies and discursive approaches taken toward these texts. The premise of this book is that despite moving further away in time, the Holocaust continues to shape and inform contemporary Jewish American writing. Divided into analytical and pedagogical sections, the chapters present a range of possibilities for thinking about these literatures. Contributors address such genres as biography, the graphic novel, alternate history, midrash, poetry, and third-generation and hidden-child Holocaust narratives. Both canonical and contemporary authors are covered, including Michael Chabon, Nathan Englander, Anne Frank, Dara Horn, Joe Kupert, Philip Roth, and William Styron"...

    Abstract: Der in den USA recht prominente Altphilologe, Kritiker und Autor D.A. Mendelsohn wurde in Deutschland bislang nur durch seine Shoah-Dokumentation "Die Verlorenen" (BA 10/10) bekannt. Sein neues Buch, das in den USA schon sehr erfolgreich war und Literatur-Preise erhielt, ist eine ungewöhnliche Mischung aus autobiografischer Spurensuche und einer aktuellen Interpretation der "Odyssee". Mendelsohn, Professor an einer amerikanischen Universität, veranstaltet ein Seminar über Homers "Odyssee", an dem auch sein 81-jähriger Vater teilnimmt. Über die Seminar-Diskussionen kommen sich Vater und Sohn wieder näher, wobei Mendelsohn in zentralen Motiven und Szenen der "Odyssee" eigene Lebenskonstellationen wiederentdeckt. Die neu gewonnene Nähe zwischen Vater und Sohn vertieft sich auf einer gemeinsamen Schiffsreise auf den Spuren des Odysseus im östlichen Mittelmeer

    Abstract: "He was, according to Pauline Kael, 'the greatest American screenwriter.' Jean-Luc Godard called him 'a genius' who 'invented 80 percent of what is used in Hollywood movies today.' Besides tossing off dozens of now-classic scripts--including Scarface,Twentieth Century, and Notorious--Ben Hecht was known in his day as ace reporter, celebrated playwright, taboo-busting novelist, and the most quick-witted of provocateurs. During World War II, he also emerged as an outspoken crusader for the imperiled Jews of Europe, and later he became a fierce propagandist for pre-1948 Palestine's Jewish terrorist underground. Whatever the outrage he stirred, this self-declared 'child of the century' came to embody much that defined America--especially Jewish America--in his time. Hecht's fame has dimmed with the decades, but Adina Hoffman's vivid portrait brings this charismatic and contradictory figure back to life on the page. Hecht was a renaissance man of dazzling sorts, and Hoffman--critically acclaimed biographer, former film critic, and eloquent commentator on Middle Eastern culture and politics--is uniquely suited to capture him in all his modes"--Jacket

    Abstract: Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) entwickelte eine einzigartige Theatertheorie. Diese verbindet Kritik an Zwangsstrukturen bürgerlicher Subjektivierung in den USA mit ganz eigenen ästhetischen Modellen und therapeutischen Empfehlungen. Steins therapeutische Wirkungsästhetik des Theaters entfaltet sich nicht in Manifesten und Traktaten, sondern in ihren frühen Romanen und autobiographischen Schriften. Daher blieb sie von der internationalen Forschung bislang unbeachtet. Torsten Josts Studie schließt diese Lücke: Stein wird als eine von William James’ Psychologie inspirierte Kunst- und Theatertheoretikerin lesbar gemacht, deren Ideen sich deutlich von Theaterästhetiken der europäischen Avantgardebewegungen unterscheiden. Damit wird sie „endlich zu jener gewichtigen Stimme, die ihr im Grunde von jeher gebührt hätte.“ (Matthias Warstat)

    Abstract: Wissend, dass hinter der Autorin des Bestsellers "Die Geschichte der Liebe" eine Scheidung liegt, liest sich das Leiden an sich, am Schreiben und Nichtschreibenkönnen, die Suche nach innerer Heimat der Ich-Erzählerin Nicole zwangsläufig autobiografisch. Im Nachdenken zieht sie in geheime Bewusstseins-Nischen, im Zentrum der Kindheits-Ferienort, das Hilton in Tel Aviv, ein "Monolith", der ihr zur Metapher wird. Erst langsam baut sich Verstehen auf, warum es auch den 68-jährigen amerikanischen Millionär Epstein dorthin getrieben hat, auch er nun ehelos, in Metamorphose. Mit ungeheurer Erzählkraft, in berückenden Sätzen, verweben sich Ebenen, ohne sich zu berühren, eingeschlossen eine fantastische Geschichte um Kafkas Nachleben in Israel. Während Nicole in Kafkas Wüstenhütte in alten Büchern frühere Wälder Israels betrachtet, machen Epsteins Setzlinge eine Wüste zum Wald...

    Abstract: Im Jahr 1949 besucht die kaum siebzehnjährige Studentin Susan Sontag den vierundsiebzigjährigen Thomas Mann in seinem kalifornischen Exil. Was sich hier ereignet, ist nicht nur eine der überraschendsten Episoden der jüngeren transatlantischen Literaturgeschichte. Für Sontag ist der Besuch der Anfangspunkt einer lebenslangen, eingehenden und äusserst lebendigen Auseinandersetzung mit dem stets auch kritisch betrachteten Vorbild. Noch ein Jahr vor ihrem Tod bezeichnet die weltbekannte Intellektuelle den Zauberberg als das wichtigste Buch ihres Lebens. Kai Sina verfolgt erstmals die teils offenliegenden, teils verdeckten Spuren und Einflüsse dieser intellektuellen Konstellation: in Sontags Nachlass, in Tagebüchern und Gesprächen, in Essays und Romanen. Dabei wird ersichtlich, dass wichtige Bereiche in Sontags Denken und Schreiben erst vor dem Hintergrund ihrer Nähe zu Thomas Mann verständlich werden: Ihre Auffassung moderner Autorschaft und Poetik, ihr Nachdenken über das Medium Fotografie und über ?Krankheit als Metapher? haben ihre Wurzeln in der Lektüre seiner Werke sowie in der Begegnung mit ihm selbst

    Abstract: This book offers insight into the approaches of a new generation of Jewish-American writers. Whether they reimagine their ancestors' "shtetl life" or invent their own kind of Jewishness, they have a common curiosity in what makes them Jewish. Is it because most of them are third-generation Americans who don't worry about assimilation as their parents' generation did? If so, how does the writing of recent Jewish immigrants from the former Soviet Union fit into the picture? Unlike Irving Howe predicted in 1977, Jewish-American literature did not fade after immigration. It always finds new paths, drawing from the vast scope of Jewish life in America.
    Abstract: »The book will be of use to anyone planning to research or teach the field of contemporary Jewish writing and who might wish to sample some of what the rich world that Jewish Americans have created over the last three decades has to offer.« David Hadar, Amerikastudien, 64/2 (2019)

    Abstract: "Moonglow unfolds as the deathbed confession of a man the narrator refers to only as 'my grandfather.' It is a tale of madness, of war and adventure, of sex and marriage and desire, of existential doubt and model rocketry, of the shining aspirations and demonic underpinnings of American technological accomplishment at midcentury, and, above all, of the destructive impact--and the creative power--of keeping secrets and telling lies. It is a portrait of the difficult but passionate love between the narrator's grandfather and his grandmother, an enigmatic woman broken by her experience growing up in war-torn France. It is also a tour de force of speculative autobiography in which Chabon devises and reveals a secret history of his own imagination. From the Jewish slums of prewar South Philadelphia to the invasion of Germany, from a Florida retirement village to the penal utopia of New York's Wallkill prison, from the heyday of the space program to the twilight of the 'American Century,' the novel revisits an entire era through a single life and collapses a lifetime into a single week. A lie that tells the truth, a work of fictional nonfiction, an autobiography wrapped in a novel disguised as a memoir, Moonglow is Chabon at his most moving and inventive" -- "Moonglow unfolds as the deathbed confession of a man the narrator refers to only as "my grandfather."

    Abstract: "The Holocaust is often said to be unrepresentable. Yet since the 1990s, a new generation of Jewish American writers have been returning to this history again and again, insisting on engaging with it in highly playful, comic, and "impious" ways. Focusing on the fiction of Michael Chabon, Jonathan Safran Foer, Nicole Krauss, and Nathan Englander, this book suggests that this literature cannot simply be dismissed as insensitive or improper. It argues that these Jewish American authors engage with the Holocaust in ways that renew and ensure its significance for contemporary generations. These ways, moreover, are intricately connected to efforts of finding new means of expressing Jewish American identity, and of moving beyond the increasingly apparent problems of postmodernism"--

    Abstract: Als Gary 1979 - 7-jährig - mit seinen Eltern von Russland in die USA übersiedelt, erlebt die Familie einen Kulturschock. Shteyngarts Autobiografie schildert, voller Komik und Wärme, ein sehr spezielles Einwandererschicksal, eine "schwere" Kindheit und ein besonderes Eltern-Kind-Verhältnis. (Mario Kowalak)
    Abstract: Igor, ein asthmatischer kleiner Junge, der mit seinen Eltern in Leningrad lebt, wächst mit Sehnsüchten auf: nach Essen, nach Bestätigung, nach Wörtern. Damit er weiter zu Kräften kommt und auch seine Höhenangst überwindet, bringt sein Vater im Wohnzimmer eine Sprossenwand an, und trotz Schwindel und Schweissausbrüchen träumt Igor hoch droben, er werde Kosmonaut. Zwei Jahre später, 1979, wandert die jüdische Familie nach Amerika aus, aber erst unterwegs erfährt er mit Schrecken, wohin die Reise geht: "Zum Feind." Und doch findet Igor, der sich nun Gary nennt, in New York seine erste Spielkameradin überhaupt, ein Mädchen, dem ein Auge fehlt. "Ich bin Einwanderer, und sie hat nur ein Auge, also sind wir gleich." Diese Geschichte eines Jungen, der von seinen Eltern zärtlich "kleiner Versager" genannt wird, weil man ihn zwar abgöttisch liebt, aber nicht so recht an sein Glück und seinen Erfolg im Leben glaubt, ist ein an Menschenkenntnis und Emotionen beglückend reiches Buch - voller Humor, obwohl die Familie wegen Hitler und Stalin nicht viel zu lachen hat und Alltagsnöte sich auftürmen wie Berge. Eine berührende und zugleich komische Kindheitsgeschichte: fesselnd, meisterhaft und - da sie Gary Shteyngarts eigene Geschichte ist - auch wahr

    Abstract: "Jewish Anxiety and the Novels of Philip Roth argues that Roth's novels teach us that Jewish anxiety stems not only from fear of victimization but also from fear of perpetration. It is impossible to think about Jewish victimization without thinking about the Holocaust; and it is impossible to think about the taboo question of Jewish perpetration without thinking about Israel. Roth's texts explore the Israel-Palestine question and the Holocaust with varying degrees of intensity but all his novels scrutinize perpetration and victimization through examining racism and sexism in America. Brett Ashley Kaplan uses Roth's novels as springboards to illuminate larger problems of victimization and perpetration; masculinity, femininity, and gender; racism and anti-Semitism. For if, as Kaplan argues, Jewish anxiety is not only about the fear of oppression, and we can begin to see how these anxieties function in terms of fears of perpetration, then perhaps we can begin to unpack the complicated dynamics around the line between the Holocaust and Israel-Palestine."--

    Abstract: Der große alte Tragik-Komiker George Tabori erzählt die Geschichte des jungen Györgi Tabori alias George Turner: Der erste Teil, Autodafé, beginnt wie jede ordentliche Familiengeschichte mit der Geburt des Erzählers an einem Sonntag im Mai. Nach und nach tritt die gesamte jüdische Familie auf, die freundliche, stille Mutter, der skeptische, als Journalist arbeitende Vater, der ältere Bruder Paul, der das neue Baby erst mal in die Donau schmeißen will und sich später als Genie im Umgang mit Dichtung und Unwahrheit herausstellt, die in Osteuropa verstreuten Tanten und Onkel, die nicht auf die Warnungen des Vaters hören wollen. Györgi wird zu einer Hotellehre nach Berlin geschickt. Dort lernt er nicht nur mit Tellern zu jonglieren, sondern macht auch Bekanntschaft mit reizenden Damen und den immer unverschämter platzgreifenden Nazis. Im zweiten Teil, Exodus, der erstmals aus dem Nachlass veröffentlicht wird und auf Deutsch geschrieben ist, begleiten wir George auf seinem endgültigen Auszug aus der Heimat: Nach einer meist sonnigen Zeit in London und einer kurzen, umso gefährlicheren Rückkehr nach Budapest mitsamt Duells verschlägt es den Journalisten auf abenteuerlichen Wegen nach Sofia, Istanbul und schließlich nach Jerusalem. „Ungarischer Jude, englischer Staatsbürger, Regisseur in Wien, Berlin und anderswo: George Tabori war ein Reisender durch das katastrophische 20. Jahrhundert. 2007 starb der große Theatermann mit 93 Jahren. Nun sind seine Jugenderinnerungen "Autodafé/Exodus" neu aufgelegt worden“ (deutschlandfunk.de)

    Abstract: "The author of the sensational national best seller For the Relief of Unbearable Urges returns with a commanding new collection of short stories: What We Talk About When We Talk About Anne Frank establishes Nathan Englander beyond all doubt as the heir to Roth, Malamud, and Babel. A tour de force. The title story, inspired by Carver's masterpiece, is a comic classic, a provocative portrait of two marriages in which the holocaust is played out as a devastating parlor game. "Camp Sundown" is an outlandishly dark story of vigilante justice undertaken by a troop of geriatric campers in a bucolic summer enclave who recognize a fellow vacationer as a former Nazi guard. "Free Fruit for Young Widows" is a small, sharp study in evil. "Sister Hills" chronicles the history of the Israeli settlements from the eve of the Yom Kippur war through the present, a political story constructed around the tale of two mothers who strike a terrible bargain to save a child. A great leap forward from one of our most audacious and important writers, and a sensational literary event"--

    Abstract: Sehr persönlich gehaltener autobiografischer Essay über körperliche Befindlichkeiten und Krankheiten in den verschiedenen Lebensaltern, über Schlüsselerlebnisse wie den Tod der Mutter, über frühe Amouren und die glückliche Ehe mit der Schriftstellerin Siri Hustvedt. (Uschi Licht)
    Abstract: Paul Auster, geboren 1947, US-Kultautor, begann seine Karriere 1982 mit dem autobiografischen Prosaband "Die Erfindung der Einsamkeit" (BA 7/93). Jetzt, im Winter seines Lebens, mit Mitte 60, schreibt er erneut über sich selbst. "Winterjournal" ist aber keine Autobiografie im üblichen Sinne, vielmehr eine Art Essay über körperliche Befindlichkeiten in den verschiedenen Lebensaltern. Auster listet all seine Verletzungen, Krankheiten und Panikattacken auf, die ihn jemals heimgesucht haben; er schreibt über frühe Amouren, seine gescheiterte 1. Ehe und seine langjährige innige Partnerschaft mit der Schriftstellerin Siri Hustvedt, er setzt sich mit dem plötzlichen Tod seiner Mutter auseinander und listet akribisch alle Wohnungen auf, in denen er jemals gelebt hat. Ellenlange Aufzählungen machen überhaupt einen Großteil des Textes aus, der von der angelsächsischen Kritik überwiegend als "weitschweifig" und "narzistisch" verrissen wurde. Auf jeden Fall ein sehr persönliches Buch, geschrieben in der "Du"-Form, quasi als Brief an sich selbst (und an eingefleischte Fans). - Zur Werkergänzung. (3) (Uschi Licht)

    Abstract: Ende der 1920er-Jahre feiert die feine Gesellschaft in New York Partys voller Glanz und Glamour. Die heraufziehende Depression wird noch nicht wahrgenommen; auf den Partys von Esther und Frederick Jack jagen die Gäste immer kurioseren Sensationen nach. (rmi)
    Abstract: Im vergangenen Jahr erschien dieses wichtige Spätwerk von Thomas Wolfe (1900-1938) erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung. Damals nicht angezeigt, bieten wir das Buch nun zeitgleich mit dem Hörbuch (in dieser Nr.) an. Der große Gesellschaftsroman entführt in das New York der späten 1920er-Jahre. In einem noblen Apartment in der Vanderbilt Avenue versammelt sich eine illustre Gruppe auf Einladung von Esther und Frederick Jack; er ein aus Koblenz stammender Selfmade-Millionär und sie eine gefeierte Bühnenbildnerin. Eine Welt von Glamour, Geist und Geld. Doch die große Depression wirft bereits ihre Schatten voraus. Die schön gestaltete Ausgabe enthält Anmerkungen, ein Nachwort und eine editorische Notiz; so kann das Werk eingeordnet werden. Zumindest ab mittelgroßen Beständen sollten die wichtigsten Werke des Autors vorhanden sein. (rmi)

    Abstract: In this book, biblical translator and literary critic Robert Alter traces some of the fascinating ways that American novelists--from Melville, Hemingway, and Faulkner to Bellow, Marilynne Robinson, and Cormac McCarthy--have drawn on the rich stylistic resources of the canonical English Bible to fashion their own strongly resonant styles and distinctive visions of reality. --from publisher description

    Abstract: Daniel Mendelsohns überwältigendes Buch über seine Suche nach dem Schicksal von sechs Mitgliedern seiner Familie, die im Holocaust umkamen - ein internationaler preisgekrönter Bestseller - erscheint nun endlich auch auf Deutsch. Als Daniel Mendelsohn ein kleiner Junge war, begannen ältere Verwandte zu weinen, wenn er ein Zimmer betrat - so sehr ähnelte er seinem Großonkel Shmiel, der "von den Nazis ermordet" worden war. Mehr erfuhr Mendelsohn nicht über den Onkel, der mit seiner Frau und vier Töchtern in dem ukrainischen "Schtetl" Bolechow geblieben war, nachdem sein Bruder, Mendelsohns Großvater, nach Amerika ausgewandert war. Schon immer fasziniert von der Geschichte seiner Familie, machte er sich 2001, nachdem er auf alte Briefe aus Bolechow gestoßen war, auf die Suche, um herauszufinden, was mit Shmiel und seinen Angehörigen geschehen war. Das Ergebnis ist ein sehr persönlicher Bericht, ein Versuch, ganz neu über den Holocaust zu schreiben, der unter all den Schichten der Überlieferung nicht mehr zu erfassen zu sein scheint, und zugleich eine "Legende von Nähe und Distanz, Intimität und Gewalt, Liebe und Tod". Mit diesen Worten beschreibt Mendelsohn die biblische Geschichte von Kain und Abel - parallel zu seiner eigenen Erzählung erzählt er die Schöpfungsgeschichte wieder, mit ihren ewigen Themen des Ursprungs und der Familie, der Versuchung und des Exils, des Bruderverrats, der Schöpfung und Vernichtung. Ausgezeichnet u.a. mit dem National Book Critics Circle Award, dem National Jewish Book Award und dem Prix Medicis Etranger; "Buch des Jahres" (Lire) in Frankreich, Bestseller in den USA, in Großbritannien, Frankreich, Italien, Spanien und Israel
