paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Am 17. August 1988 explodiert wenige Minuten nach dem Start in Richtung Islamabad das Flugzeug des pakistanischen Präsidenten Zia ul-Haq. An Bord befinden sich neben dem Militärdiktator und treuesten Verbündeten der USA im Afghanistankrieg auch einige seiner ranghöchsten Generäle und der US-Botschafter Arnold Raphel. Bis heute ist es eine der großen offenen Fragen in der gewaltreichen Geschichte Pakistans, ob es sich bei dem mysteriösen Absturz um einen Unfall oder um ein Attentat handelte.Mohammed Hanif greift dieses Ereignis auf und entwickelt daraus einen Roman mit anarchischer Komik und schwarzem Humor. Hatte die CIA ihre Finger im Spiel Waren es pakistanische Generäle, unglücklich über ihre bevorstehende Pensionierung Geschah es wegen des Fluches einer blinden Frau Oder durch ein Geschenk der All Pakistan Mango Farmers Cooperative Auch könnte der Erzähler, der Luftwaffenkadett Ali Shigri, verantwortlich gewesen sein, der eigene Pläne verfolgt. Ebenso sein Freund Obaid, der jede Frage des Lebens mit einem Spritzer Eau de Toilette und einem Rilke-Zitat beantwortet und plötzlich verschwindet. Oder ist es am Ende doch Leutnant Bannon, der aus seinem Vietnamtrauma in Marihuanaträume fällt Eine Kiste explodierender Mangos ist eine vielschichtige und brillant erzählte Satire über Männer, Macht und Militär, die vor dem historischen Hintergrund auch die Strukturen und Verstrickungen der gegenwärtigen globalen Politik aufdeckt.…
