Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Mitten in den Umwalzungen des Ersten Weltkriegs und trotz ungunstiger wirtschaftlicher Rahmenbedingungen erfullten sich zwei Frauenin New York City ihren Traum. Madge Jenison und Mary Mowbray-Clarke grundeten 1916 eine Buchhandlung, die innerhalb kurzer Zeit zum kulturellen Fixpunkt in Manhattan wurde. 'The Sunwise Turn' ist das Urbild einer Buchhandlung, wie sie wohl jeder Bucherfreundin, jedem Bucherfreund vorschwebt. Kunstler und Intellektuelle verkehrten hier ebenso wie Vertreter des Geldadels, Angehorige der Mittelschicht und Arbeiter. Damen der Gesellschaft arbeiteten unentgeltlich als Aushilfe, auch die junge Peggy Guggenheim erledigte Botengange. Zum besonderen Reiz dieser literarischen Liebeserklarung an eine Buchhandlung gehort es, dass viele Episoden und selbst kaufmannische Gepflogenheiten noch heute muhelos nachvollziehbar sind. Unternehmerische Risiken und erdruckende Konkurrenz, aber auch das Gluck des Gelingens - all das spiegelt Jenisons 'menschliche Komodie des Bucherverkaufens'. Nach der Lekture ist man uberzeugt, dass sich ihr Mut zum Risiko gelohnt hat.…
