Da fällt Carl ein Ratgeber für Hundeerziehung in die Hände. Ob er seinem Vater damit beibringen kann, sich wie andere Eltern zu verhalten? Begeistert von den Geheimtipps startet Carl das Experiment ¿Eltern erziehen leicht gemacht¿.Bestsellerautor Gary Paulsen erzählt mit viel Augenzwinkern und noch mehr Herz von dem Wunsch, dazuzugehören und davon, dass man Menschen nun einmal nicht umtrainieren kann - und auch nicht muss.

    Nearing sixty, diagnosed with heart disease and feeling his mortality, Gary Paulsen buys his first Harley-Davidson and rides from his home in New Mexico to Alaska-and from the present into his past, through the landmarks of a singular life. Paulsen's journey is peopled with familiar faces, from the tough cop who saved him from juvenile delinquency to the prostitute whose career advice stopped him from quitting the army. And the work he does while on his bike-the work of mapping his life to find meaning-is of a piece with the pure sweat and muscle of youthful days spent on farms in Minnesota, or at the bottom of septic tank pits in Colorado, or wrangling dogsleds through the Alaskan wilderness. Amid the silence and beauty of running the road on his Harley, Paulsen celebrates the comforts of hard work, the thrill of challenge met bravely, and the peculiar joys of life lived to its fullest.

    In These Stories, with the spareness of language and the intensity of emotion and imagery that are the hallmarks of his fiction, Gary Paulsen offers up the subject of human vulnerability; he captures it, holds it to a mirror, and marvels at the light and bone-edged beauty there. Here a drunken Vietnam vet stumbles into a cemetery, where he helps to deliver the second Christ; a young man observes a silent ritual performed by his dying father-in-law in an ancient canyon; a boy witnesses the violence of nature in the midst of war; an older and more cynical man discovers inspiration among the ladies of the library. For those familiar with Gary Paulsen's work - including the autobiographical Eastern Sun, Winter Moon and his lyrical tribute to farm life, Clabbered Dirt, Sweet Grass - and for those who are reading his fiction for the first time, The Madonna Stories is an experience that will not be forgotten.
