Das Hotel New Hampshire

""The first of my father's illusions was that bears could survive the life lived by human beings, and the second was that human beings could survive a life led in hotels.""So says John Berry, son of a hapless dreamer, brother to a cadre of eccentric siblings, and chronicler of the lives lived, the loves experienced, the deaths met, and the myriad strange and wonderful times encountered by the family Berry. Hoteliers, pet-bear owners, friends of Freud (the animal trainer and vaudevillian, that is), and playthings of mad fate, they "dream on" in a funny, sad, outrageous, and moving novel by the remarkable author of "A Widow for One Year" and "The Cider House Rules," In Das Hotel New Hampshire vertelt John Irving het verhaal van een excentrieke familie die een reeks hotels runt op verschillende plekken in de wereld. Met humor en tragiek verweeft Irving thema’s als liefde, verlies en absurditeit in een onvergetelijke roman. Deutschsprachiges Taschenbuch. Einband mit deutlichen Gebrauchsspuren und Abnutzung an Rändern und Rücken, aber vollständig und gut lesbar.
