Zustand: Gut. Taschenbucherstausgabe. 141 (3) Seiten. 19,1 cm. Guter Zustand. Buchblock etwas verzogen. Faszinierend das Understatement und die Intensität, mit der Swift das Unerhörte erzählt - Eros, Emanzipation, gesellschaftlicher Wandel. -- Susanne Kippenberger - Der Tagesspiegel. Jane, das junge Dienstmädchen von Beechwood, und Paul, der Spross aus begütertem Haus, haben ein Verhältnis. Heimliche Botschaften, verschwiegene Treffen, doch heute, an diesem sonnigen Märzsonntag 1924, darf Jane Familie und Dienerschaft sind ausgeflogen ihr Fahrrad einfach an die Hausmauer des Anwesens lehnen, durchs Hauptportal herein und ins Bett ihres Geliebten kommen. Ein erstes und ein letztes Mal, denn Paul wird bald standesgemäß heiraten. Später, gegen Mittag, wird sie leichtfüßig und nackt durch das weitläufige Haus streifen, beseelt von der rauschhaften Innigkeit dieses herausgehobenen Morgens und nicht ahnend, dass ihr Leben am Ende dieses Tages zu zerbrechen droht. -- Graham Colin Swift (* 4. Mai 1949 in London) ist ein britischer Schriftsteller. Leben und Schaffen: Swift besuchte das Dulwich College in London, das Queens' College in Cambridge sowie die University of York und arbeitete danach als Lehrer. Bekannt wurde er durch seinen preisgekrönten Roman Wasserland. Er schreibt Kurzgeschichten und Romane und zählt nach Ansicht verschiedener Kritiker, darunter der Feuilletonist Thomas David, zu den bedeutendsten Erzählern der britischen Gegenwartsliteratur. Sein Werk wurde mehrfach ausgezeichnet. Zentrales Thema seiner Bücher ist die Funktion der Erinnerung. Er entwickelt es anhand von Figuren aus der jüngeren englischen Geschichte durch Verknüpfung von persönlichen Schicksalen mit der Weltgeschichte. Besonderes Stilmittel ist dabei die achronologische Erzähltechnik das aufgeschobene, fragmentierte Erzählen nachgetragener Vorgeschichten und der Einsatz eines unzuverlässigen Erzählers. Sein 2016 veröffentlichter Roman Mothering Sunday, der 2017 in der deutschen Übersetzung von Susanne Höbel unter dem Titel Ein Festtag erschien, wurde in mehr als 20 Sprachen übersetzt. Der Roman wurde auf Anhieb ein internationaler Bestseller und erhielt 2017 den renommierten Hawthornden-Preis. Graham Swift lebt in London. . . .

Original Black Boards. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good +. 1st Edition. 132p. Hardcover New and Signed First Edition, First Printing. Dust jacket is unclipped and in near fine condition - however there is a sharp vertical crease to the spine panel.and a linear crease a less acute vertical crease close to the spine on the rear panel ? due to a paper fault during production - perhaps when the titles were blind stamped into the d/j. The spine crease is only really visible from inside the dustjacket and hardly on scans. I believe otherwise a near fine copy in fine d/w except to the most fastidious! "It is March 30th 1924. It is Mothering Sunday. How will Jane Fairchild, orphan and housemaid, occupy her time when she has no mother to visit? How, shaped by the events of this never to be forgotten day, will her future unfold? Beginning with an intimate assignation and opening to embrace decades, Mothering Sunday has at its heart both the story of a life and the life that stories can magically contain. Constantly surprising, joyously sensual and deeply moving, it is Graham Swift at his thrilling best". Signed by author. See scans.
