ISBN: Verlag: Black Sparrow Pr Sachgruppe: English Books Sprache: Englisch Preis: CHF 30.10 CHF 27.90 Kaufen Klappentext Homesick (1990) and So Long (1993), her immensely popular short story collections, established Lucia Berlin as the Sister of Mercy of contemporary fiction. In Where I Live Now, Berlin once again contemplates the human condition with a compassionate understanding. Berlin's vision is sometimes remorseful, sometimes resigned, always courageous and unmisgiving. The elusive nature of happiness is a compelling theme here: the survivors in these stories many of them society's marginal or excluded people, fighting alcohol or drug addiction, bearing emotional scars recognize it all too well. They mourn the lost dreams of youth, the roads not taken. They suffer the damage life inflicts: the ache of loneliness, the pain of separation, the fear of death. | |
