        Steinuhr

        Roman

        by György Konrád, Hans-Henning Paetzke

        "Janos Dragoman ist ein Abenteurer, ein romantischer. Doch Kandor, Schauplatz unserer Geschichte, wird ihm zur Falle, der Durch- und Weiterreisende wird auf- und festgehalten, es sind Zufälle, zu Fallstricken werden. Er könnte alles hinter sich lassen: die Freunde, die Geliebten, den Erfolg, die Zuwendungen, all dies - an Olga aber, diesem Zufall, der sich als seine Tochter entpuppt und die schwanger geht, an ihr hält er fest; hier manifestiert sich das Verlangen nach Kontinuität. Endlich ist da jemand, mit dem er durch Blutsbande verbunden ist, zu dem er gehört. Der Roman ist auch eine moderne Don-Juan-Geschichte; zum einen ist es die Erinnerung an alte Liebesbeziehungen und das Vermeiden, aufs neue anzuknüpfen. Denn Dragoman zieht es vor, aus dem Augenwinkel eine andere Frau wahrzunehmen, und ohne daß er sich dessen bewußt wäre, wird sie, Sandra, zur Triebfeder. Und er, Dragoman, verursacht den Tod ihres Ehemanns, seines Freundes, und nimmt Sandra zur Geliebten."

        Beginning ethnic American literatures

        by Helena Grice, Peter Barry, Candida Hepworth, John McLeod, Maria Lauret, Martin Padget, Annete Musker

        Since the late 1960s, American literature has been revitalised by the work of writers such as Toni Morrison, Sherman Alexie, Sandra Cisneros and Maxine Hong Kingston. An introduction to the study of ethnic American fictions organised into four sections, each written by a specialist in the fields of African American, Asian American, Chicano/a and native American literature. Writers are discussed in their cultural/political contexts and literary traditions (rather than as exceptions or as individuals, or on a generic basis). The book highlights common themes in ethnic writing as well as specificities, and has extensive suggestions for further reading as well as a critical introduction regarding the concept of 'ethnic writing'. No competing titles - there are no textbooks, no beginners' books nor any systematised combination of ethnic fictions such as this - only edited collections on each area. ;
