Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Ein junger Amerikaner kommt in die Ukraine. Er heißt zufällig Jonathan Safran Foer. Im Gepäck hat er das vergilbte Foto einer Frau namens Augustine. Sie soll gegen Ende des 2. Weltkrieges seinen Großvater vor den Nazis gerettet haben. Jonathan will Augustine finden und Trachimbrod, den Ort, aus dem seine Familie stammt. Sein Reiseführer ist ein alter Ukrainer mit einem noch älteren klapprigen Auto, sein Dolmetscher dessen Enkel Alex, ein unglaubliches Großmaul und ein Genie im Verballhornen von Sprache. Mit von der Partie ist noch Sammy Davis jr. jr., eine neurotische Promenadenmischung mit einer Leidenschaft für Jonathan, der Angst vor Hunden hat. Die Reise führt durch eine verwüstete Gegend und in eine Zeit des Grauens. Alex berichtet in seiner unnachahmlichen Sprache von den Abenteuern und irrsinnigen Missverständnissen während dieser Fahrt, Jonathan erzählt die phantastische Geschichte Trachimbrods bis zum furchtbaren Ende, und der alte Ukrainer begegnet den Gespenstern seiner Vergangenheit. Alex und Jonathan aber sind zum Schluss der Reise Freunde geworden. 276 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - From the bestselling author of Eating Animals and Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close - a brilliant, fresh take on climate change and what we can do about itClimate crisis is the single biggest threat to human survival. And it is happening right now. We all understand that time is running out - but do we truly believe it And, caught between the seemingly unimaginable and the apparently unthinkable, how can we take the first step towards action, to arrest our race to extinction We can begin with our knife and fork. The link between farming animals and the climate crisis is barely discussed, because giving up our meat-based diets feels like an impossible ask. But we don't have to go cold turkey. Cutting out animal products for just part of the day is enough to change the world.The task of saving the planet will involve a great reckoning with ourselves - with our all-too-human reluctance to sacrifice immediate comfort for the sake of the future. But we have done it before and we can do it again. Collective action is the way to save our home and way of life. And it all starts with what we eat, and don't eat, for breakfast.With his distinctive wit, insight and humanity, Jonathan Safran Foer presents the essential debate of our time as no one else could, bringing it to vivid and urgent life and offering us all a much-needed way out.

Second edition. 8°. 139 (recte 137) Blätter Originalbroschur. Mit handschriftlicher Widmung von Foer auf dem Titelblatt. - Foer nahm ein Exemplar von "The Street of Crocodiles", eine englischsprachige Ausgabe des auf Deutsch unter dem Titel "Zimtläden" erschienenen Textes des polnisch-ukrainischen Autors Bruno Schulz (1892-1942) und schnitt Lücken in den Text, durch welche hindurch man eine neue Geschichte aus Schulz' Originaltext herauslesen kann. Das aufwändige Druckverfahren mit den Ausstanzungen führte dazu, dass Foer von etlichen Verlagen eine Absage erhielt. Mit dem belgischen Kleinverlag Visual Editions und der Papiergestalterin Sara de Bondt konnte das Projekt realisiert werden. - Wahrscheinlich der einzige Text von Foer, der nicht in eine andere Sprache übersetzt wurde. Ein literarisches und künstlerisches Kleinod. Sprache: englisch.
