Sehr guter Zustand. Frisches Exemplar. Wie ungelesen. - Fernanda Eberstadt (born 1960 in New York City) is an American writer.[1][2][3][4] Early lifeShe is the daughter of two patrons of New York City's avant-garde, Frederick Eberstadt, a photographer and psychotherapist, and Isabel Eberstadt, a writer. Her paternal grandfather was Ferdinand Eberstadt, a Wall Street financier and adviser to presidents; her maternal grandfather was the poet Ogden Nash.[5][2] She went to the Brearley School in New York City.[6] As a teenager, she worked at Andy Warhol's Factory[1] and for Diana Vreeland at the Metropolitan Museum. Her first published piece was a profile in Andy Warhol's "Interview" in 1979 of the travel writer Bruce Chatwin. At age eighteen, Eberstadt moved to the United Kingdom where she was one of the first women to attend Magdalen College, Oxford, from which she graduated in 1982.[2] with a double first. Writing careerIn 1985, Alfred A. Knopf, Inc. published the twenty-five-year old Eberstadt's first work of literary fiction, titled Low Tide. This told the story of Jezebel, daughter of an English art dealer and a mad Louisa heiress, adn her fatal love affair with two young brothers. It takes place in New York, Oxford and Mexico. Praise for her work landed her an interview with intellectual William F. Buckley on his television program, Firing Line, where she appeared with Bret Easton Ellis, who had published "Less Than Zero" the same year. The same year, Eberstadt discussed the author of Survival in Auschwitz, Primo Levi, in an article in Commentary magazine. An essay in The Cambridge Companion to Primo Levi by Bryan Cheyette describes the article as follows: "The problem with Levi, clearly, is that he is not Eli Wiesel ... Levi's secular humanism offers a completely different representation of the Holocaust to that of Wiesel and thereby endangers Wiesel's hegemony as the emblematic Holocaust survivor in the United States."[9] Biographer Ian Thomson's 2002 volume Primo Levi characterizes Eberstadt's article as motivated mainly by a disagreement with "Levi's reputation as a liberal Diaspora Jew." (p.482) Shortly after, Levi wrote to his translator that "It is not merely for this episode that I have lost my good humour." Her next novel Isaac and His Devils came in 1991 and was again widely acclaimed, described by Library Journal as a "rich novel, full of promise for the author's future." Set in rural New Hampshire, the novel's hero is Isaac Hooker, a half-deaf, half-blind, hugely fat and ambitious boy-genius and his struggle to fulfill his parents' blighted dreams. Her third novel, published in 1997 and set in the late 1980s New York art world, When the Sons of Heaven Meet the Daughters of the Earth, recounted the rise and fall of the now young painter, Isaac Hooker. Eberstadt began writing essays and criticism for such publications as Commentary, The New Yorker, Vogue, New York Times Magazine, and Vanity Fair.[7] Her widely cited essay "The Palace and the City," about the Sicilian writer Lampedusa and the politics of urban restoration in Palermo, was published in the December 23, 1991 issue of The New Yorker. In more recent years, she has worked extensively for The New York Times Magazine, publishing profiles of the Nobel Prize-winning novelist Orhan Pamuk, of Moroccan-based Spanish writer Juan Goytisolo ,and the Portuguese novelist Jose Saramago, as well as of indie-rock group Cocorosie. Following her pattern of a six-year interval between novels, Eberstadt published The Furies in 2003. Praised by Kirkus Reviews, Booklist, Publishers Weekly, and the New York Times Book Review, fellow writer Bret Easton Ellis called it "spellbinding",[citation needed] and the New York Observer said "The Furies veers pretty close to genius." John Updike, reviewing "Little Money Street" in "The New Yorker," described Eberstadt as "ambitious, resourceful novelist."[8] Life in FranceIn 1998, Eberstadt went to live on a vineyard in the French Pyrenees, outside the city of Perpignan. She became friends with a family of French gypsy musicians. Her first work of non-fiction, Little Money Street - In Search of Gypsies and Their Music in the South of France, which portrays that friendship, was released by Knopf in March 2006. Luc Sante called the book "passionate, intimate, at once exhilarating and despairing, a rich and profound work of high nonfiction literature. A portrait of the Gypsies of southwestern France, it is also about family, about consumerism, and about the ruthlessness of a world in which there is no more open world." Eberstadt and her husband, Alaistair Meddon Oswald Bruton, a journalist whom she married on June 5, 1993,[5] live in France; they have two children.[6] Her sixth book, a novel called RAT, was published by Alfred A. Knopf in March 2010. RAT tells the story of a 15-year-old girl who set off on a journey from rural France to London, with her adopted brother in search of her birth father and a better life. It received very good reviews with Booklist calling it "mythic, gritty and unforgettable." wikipedia-org-wiki-Fernanda_Eberstadt Aus: wikipedia-org, ISBN-13: 9783499244162

Dickinson, Peter: Cagetalk: Dialogues with and about John Cage (Eastman Studies in Music (Hardcover Numbered)) Univ of Rochester Pr, ISBN: 1580462375
Pressestimmen\nForeWord Magazine selected this title as one of its top music books from University Presses for 2006. Ideal introduction to Cage. --TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT We hear Cage in his own words, in conversations conducted between 1966 and 1988, and put in the context of interviews with close colleagues such as pianist David Tudor, choreographer Merce Cunningham and fellow composers including Earle Brown and Virgil Thomson... Dickinson's approach to collecting these interviews is methodical and fastidious... (His) introductory chapter is ... cogent. --Philip Clark, Gramophone The Cage and Friends interviews are outstanding. In particular David Tudor, the performing musician closest to and most crucial for Cage, is exceptionally forthcoming. --composer Christian Wolff This book is no eulogy compendium. Instead, the interviewees simply give us what we would all prefer to have, which is a diverse set of instructive, good-humoured accounts of their dealings with the book's subject... Informative and entertaining--often amusing: Stockhausen's thinly-veiled tetchiness makes for a diverting subtext, while Virgil Thomson refers to Cage's former wife Xenia as the Eskimo. Technically, too, this book is a success, with its comprehensive references, its proper indexing and, joy of joys, footnotes ... on the page you're actually on. A valuable and enjoyable read which I unreservedly recommend. Five stars (out of five).--Roger Thomas, BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE (A) lively compilation of dialogues with and about Cage ... (opening with Dickinson's) useful introductory overview... (Cage's) influence burns brighter than ever. --Fiona Maddocks, in The Spectator Essential reading for anyone interested in the music of our time. WHOLENOTE Cage's engaging manner radiates from these pages... CageTalk is excellent, leaving one with feelings of affection toward its subject. -- John Robert Brown, CLASSICAL MUSIC A real treasure house of fascinating exchanges... An entertaining perspective on (Cage's) inventive and imaginative world of sound, visual imagery and movement. -- Patrick Standford, MUSIC AND VISION DAILY \n\nKurzbeschreibung\nJohn Cage was one of America's most renowned composers from the 1940s until his death in 1992. But he was also a much-admired writer and artist, and a uniquely attractive personality able to present his ideas engagingly wherever he went. As an interview subject he was a consummate professional. The main source of CageTalk: Dialogues with and about John Cage is a panoply of vivid and compulsively readable interviews given to Peter Dickinson in the late 1980s for a BBC Radio 3 documentary. The original BBC program lasted an hour but the full discussions with Cage and many of the main figures connected with him have remained unpublished until now. CageTalk also includes earlier BBC interviews with Cage, including ones by the renowned literary critic Frank Kermode and art critic David Sylvester. And the editor Peter Dickinson contributes little-known source material about Cage's Musicircus and Roaratorio as well as a substantial introduction exploring the multiple roles that Cage's varied and challenging output played during much of the twentieth century and continues to play in the early twenty-first. Apart from the long interview with Cage himself, there are discussions with, Bonnie Bird, Earle Brown, Merce Cunningham, Minna Lederman, Otto Luening, Jackson Mac Low, Peadar Mercier, Pauline Oliveros, John Rockwell, Kurt Schwertsik, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Virgil Thomson, David Tudor, La Monte Young, and Paul Zukovsky. Most of the interviews were given to Peter Dickinson but there are others involving Rebecca Boyle, Anthony Cheevers, Michael Oliver, and Roger Smalley. Peter Dickinson, British composer and pianist, is emeritus professor, University of Keele and , ISBN-13: 9781580462372
