Wieso?

Was mir zunächst bei diesem Buch sehr gut gefallen hat ist eindeutig das Cover. Schön verspielt räkeln sich die Blätter um das Profil eines Kopfes, und sogar noch in einer dritten Ebene innerhalb der Kopfform wird ein Schauplatz des Buchs dargestellt. Leider muss ich aber auch sagen, dass das tatsächlich mein Highlight des gesamten Buchs war: in die Story bin ich irgendwie nicht so ganz reingekommen. Klar - die entstehende Freundschaft zwischen den beiden Hauptprotagonisten ist eine besondere Beziehung, die auch schön dargestellt ist, der Rest der Geschichte ist allerdings in meinen Augen etwas... speziell. Ich kann nach dem Lesen und eigehendem Grübeln leider immernoch nicht so ganz sagen, was denn nun die Message des Buches ist, bzw. warum das Ganze? Irgendwie war alles so unklar miteinander verwoben, dass man am Ende nicht weiß, wo man steht.
Jane Austen is a writer ruined by TV adaptation (before you all start writing letters, I know there are good ones). Despite two centuries of inclusion in the canon, there are still many (and I am afraid they are mostly men) who dismiss her as 'frivolous', 'saccharine' or 'unserious'. This means it is only worth continuing to discuss Austen with people if they either don't use any of the aforementioned adjectives or if, by the latter, they mean, she is one of the funniest writers in English (full stop). If you don't know this already, the first page of 'Persuasion' will convince you, and then her biting, satirical commentary on Georgian society will show you that far from reverently writing about it out of admiration, she irreverently lambasts it and its eccentric snobbish hierarchy (people who write her off will probably say John Oliver likes Trump because both wear suits). If you don't believe me (and even if you do), read her (and start with 'Persuasion') before you watch her.

Autor/in

Bestselling author Cynthia St. Aubin wrote her first play at age eight and made her brothers perform it for the admission price of gum wrappers. A steal, considering she provided the wrappers in advance. Though her early work debuted to mixed reviews, she never quite gave up on the writing thing, even while earning a mostly useless master's degree in art history and taking her turn as a cube monkey in the corporate warren. Because the voices in her head kept talking to her, and they discourage drinking at work, she started writing instead. When she's not standing in front of the fridge eating cheese, she's hard at work figuring out which mythological, art historical, or paranormal friends to play with next. She lives in Texas with a handsome musician and one surly cat.
