Audrey Thomas è una trentenne newyorkese molto spiritosa e senza peli sulla lingua. È autrice di romanzi erotici e nella vita privata non è troppo incline ad abbandonarsi al romanticismo. Al grande amore preferisce il ¿divertiamoci qui e ora e poi domani ognuno a casa propriä. Ma la sua esistenza sta per essere sconvolta da una serie di novità: sua madre, con cui ha sempre pensato di condividere un certo femminismo intransigente, le annuncia che ha finalmente deciso di compiere il grande passo: si sposa. Come se questo non bastasse, nella sua vita piomba Matt, l'uomo in assoluto più ¿sbagliato¿ che potesse incontrare, sia per il ruolo molto particolare che riveste, sia per i valori in cui crede¿ All'improvviso Audrey si trova a mettere in discussone posizioni che riteneva definitive e a essere tormentata da domande la cui risposta non è più così certa. Una fra tutte la perseguita: in che cosa consiste la vera trasgressione? E se l'uomo meno adatto a lei fra tutti fosse proprio¿ quello giusto?

Wenn man diesen Erzählband aufschlägt, um sich dem Tod mithilfe von Christian von Asters Erzählungen anzunähern, spürt man schnell, wie sich der Herr Autor mit jeder Geschichte auf einen neuen Tanz einlässt, um ihren Rhythmus, ihren Herzschlag zu erspüren und dem Thema in jeder von ihnen einen neuen Raum zu eröffnen.Am Ende stehen fünfzehn Texte, die, mal von der Tätigkeit des Autoren als Trauerredner, mal von der als Satiriker geprägt, zwischen Zärtlichkeit, Poesie, schwarzem Humor und dem Unaussprechlichen immer in Zwiesprache mit der mystisch morbiden Symbol- und Formensprache der Illustrationen treten, die Maximiliane Spieß eigens für diese Sammlung erstellt hat.Und so ist dieses Buch am Ende nicht weniger als ein ebenso vielseitiger wie vergnüglicher Spaziergang mit dem Tod...

Punk, Glaubensfrage,Partnerschaft, Ehefrage,MusikspielArbeit mit Menschen mit Behinderung und mein brillanter Sohn, der mich vor zehn Jahren verlassen hat, die Arbeit in Pferdeställen, Hotelküche, Zimmerreinigung, Ernte und manchmal Kochen für hungernde Menschen. Dies war überall und alles Arbeit, die unbezahlt war !Der Ansatz hat mich wieder kreativ werden lassen, wie man sieht.Aber wenn ich inspiriert denke, fehlt am Ende mein Lachen, weil ich es sehe:Ich bin nicht so besonders, um über die anderen zu lachen, und wie die Leute zu laut lachen, hört der andere und ist leise traurig darüber, weil alle Lautheit über Unrecht den anderen oft aufwühlt oder traurig stimmt. Buch vom Punk heutigen Zeiten und an was man noch glauben soll !
