Ergebnis für "Barack Obama" in Belletristik

Wenn aus Fremden Freunde werden - ein humorvolles und berührendes Buch von Frankreichs Autorin Nummer 1Jeanne, 74, hat kürzlich ihren Mann verloren und findet sich in einer einsamen und finanziell prekären Situation wieder. Iris, 33 und schwanger, ist einer toxischen Beziehung entflohen, versteckt sich in Paris, wo sie aus dem Koffer lebt, und sucht nach einer Unterkunft. Théo, 18, Konditorlehrling ohne festen Wohnsitz, hat Jahre im Heim hinter sich, Erinnerungen an eine desolate Kindheit im Gepäck und braucht ebenfalls dringend eine Bleibe.

Eine Geschichte von weiblicher Gemeinschaft und Macht. Ein Fest der Erzählfreude, der Erfindungskraft und des Intellekts. Das neue Meisterwerk von Lauren Groff. Marie ist siebzehn Jahre alt, groß und ungelenk und nach allgemeiner Ansicht ungeeignet für die Ehe und das höfische Leben. Sie verehrt ihre Königin, Eleanore von Aquitanien, doch die verstößt sie mit einem Lächeln: Marie soll Priorin eines abgelegenen Klosters werden, irgendwo im Schlamme Englands, fern von den zärtlichen Zuwendungen ihrer Dienerin.
