Bücher von Mark Z. Danielewski

On the road. In einem Auto, das sich ununterbrochen von einer Marke in die nächste verwandelt - vom Shelby Mustang bis zum Sumover Linx - jagen Hailey und Sam durch zweimal hundert Jahre, vom amerikanischen Bürgerkrieg bis zum Kalten Krieg und von der Bürgerrechtsbewegung bis zum Irakkrieg, preschen runter nach New Orleans, den Mississippi hinauf und quer durch Montana. Bei ihrem Versuch, am Ende sogar die Geschichte zu überholen, spalten sie die ganze Nation. Ein typographisches Kunststück und eine atemberaubende Liebesgeschichte, die von beiden Seiten gelesen werden kann: von vorne nach hinten und von hinten nach vorne.

We all have fears, but if we can't face the small ones how will we face the big ones? Kai is afraid to fly a little blue kite. But Kai is also very, very brave, and overcoming this small fear will lead him on a great adventure. Remember: all great adventures start with one little moment. You know the one. It's like a gentle breeze whispering in your ear what you already know by heart: not even the sky is the limit . . .

The twins, Freya and Shasti, sense something too and blame their older sister. Honeysuckles haunt the air and smell of offerings . . .

With spectacular visuals and the vibrant wordplay that are his trademark, The Familiar (Volume 3) is a beautiful and singular reading experience that could come only from the imagination of Mark Z.
