Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Breece D'J Pancake cut short a remarkably promising career when he took his own life in 1979 at the age of twenty-six. In 1983 the posthumous publication of this book - a collection of stories that depict, with astonishing power and grace, the world of Pancake's native rural West Virginia - electrified the literary world with a force that still resounds across two decades. One is tempted to compare his debut to Hemingway's' - Joyce Carol Oates 'An exceptional voice' - Margaret Atwood 'The best, most sincere writer I've ever read' - Kurt Vonnegut'.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A definitive edition of the haunted and haunting stories of the legendary West Virginia writer, with rare unfinished stories and fragments and revealing letters Breece D'J Pancake published only a handful of stories before he took his own life in 1979, just shy of his twenty-seventh birthday. Those stories and a small number of others found among his papers after his death comprise the remarkable posthumous collection The Stories of Breece D'J Pancake (1983), recognized at the time as 'an American Dubliners' (Jayne Anne Phillips) and a collection by a 'young writer of such extraordinary gifts that one is tempted to compare his debut to Hemingway's' (Joyce Carol Oates). Kurt Vonnegut called him 'merely the best writer, the most sincere writer I've ever read.' Today his diverse admirers include Margaret Atwood, Andre Dubus III, Tom Waits, and Lorde. The Collected Breece D'J Pancake brings together the original landmark book, several story drafts and fragments, and a selection of Pancake's letters to offer an unprecedented picture of his life and art. Among the unfinished stories are fragments from Pancake's two planned novels. The letters document his relationship with writers such as Peter Taylor, John Casey, James Alan McPherson, and Mary Lee Settle, and offer a picture of his collaborative relationship with his mother, who sent him newspaper clippings and helped him research his stories. 'Pancake's stories are the only stories written in just this way,' Jayne Anne Phillips writes in her introduction, 'from inside the minds of protagonists coming of age in the mountains of an Appalachian world closed to others.' At once beautiful and relentlessly bleak, the stories concern miners, truckers, farmers, waitresses, and others facing constricted economic and life prospects. In one way or another, his characters are stuck, hoping for a change in fortune they can neither relinquish nor quite bring themselves to believe in, the land and the past making equally strong claims on their darkening present.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Die Geschichten von Breece D'J Pancake, geschrieben in den Siebzigern des letzten Jahrhunderts, entführen uns in die Berge und Täler West Virginias, in spärlich besiedelte Gegenden, hin zu Menschen, die hart arbeiten, rau miteinander umgehen, die trinken, sich prügeln, Opossums jagen und mit ihren alten Autos rücksichtslos durch die Landschaften brettern - und die davon träumen, eines Tages ein besseres Leben zu haben. Bis dahin aber harren sie aus.Pancakes Geschichten haben einen wundersam eigenen Ton, eine beeindruckend eigene Sicht auf die Bewohner eines Landes, denen, mitten in Amerika, der »american dream« ein Fremdwort ist. Wir lesen sie, staunend, weil sie modern und heutig sind, uns unmittelbar ansprechen und in unsere eigene Zeit verweisen. …
