T. C. Boyle
Über diesen Titel
Bloomsbury presents I Walk Between the Raindrops by T. C. Boyle, read by T. C. Boyle, Cheryl Smith, Jason Culp, Derek Perkins, Jeremy Arthur, Stephen Mendel, Johnathan McClain, Ewan Chung, Pete Simonelli, David deVries, Nan McNamara and Rex Anderson.
A joyful, freewheeling, funny and profound new collection from ‘one of the most inventive, adventurous and accomplished fiction writers in the US today’ (Lionel Shriver)
For one woman, a cross-country train ride becomes a parallel journey into the dark psyche of American manhood. An old man and his neighbour enter strike up a friendship that might a more sinister battle of wits than he first thinks. A man, waiting for his wife in a bar on Valentine's Day, is plagued by a stranger who claims to be clairvoyant.
In electric prose T. C. Boyle explores myriad facets of society: greed and excess, parenthood and responsibility, the digital world and the way we understand our mortality. Roaming unrestrainedly through the present and near future, he inhabits his characters’ minds with a ventriloquist’s flair, skewering human motivations and revealing us to ourselves with empathy and wry humour.
Kritikerstimmen
"Always enjoyable, virtually incapable of dullness or slack sentences.... His stories reveal truths about modern life while still feeling beautifully invented." (New York Times)
I would immediately believe if anyone told me, that T.C. Boyle has never really told a story that was completely made up, or that he interviewed every protagonist for a long time.
What makes him special is that he creates every single one of his characters with something like love and understanding. Like a loving creator who wouldn't hate a single one of his creations.
Every story is a masterpiece
