Kennedy, A. L. The blue book. Boston: New Harvest/Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2013, stated first U.S. Edition with complete number line ending in 1, 335pp., very good dust-jacket, original price $25.00, very good orange and cream white hardcover, small black remainder dot on top foredge. "While on a transatlantic trip with her soon-to-be-fiance Derek, Elizabeth unexpectedly runs into ex-lover Arthur, with whom she shares a shady past: the pair once worked as traveling spiritual mediums who conned the vulnerable by pretending to contact the spirits of departed loved ones. While Derek remains seasick and cabin-bound, Elizabeth wanders the ship, alternately avoiding and seeking out Arthur. Unable to avoid memories of their fractured past, she must face the deception they practiced even as she accepts the peace they brought to the grief-stricken who sought their services" (Jacket flap text).

Book First Edition
Condition: Sehr gut. Deutsche Erstausgabe. 364 (4) Seiten. 21,8 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: Peter Andreas Hassepien. Sehr guter Zustand. Angst, Schuld und Liebe - das sind die großen Themen der schottischen Schriftstellerin A.L. Kennedy. Ihr neuer Roman ,Das Blaue Buch' erzählt von zwei verirrten Forschungsreisenden der Seele. . Und es erzählt von der einzigen menschlichen Sehnsucht, die niemals, ganz gleich, was geschieht, erfüllt werden kann, der Sehnsucht nach Unschuld." Hubert Spiegel, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 22.09.12. Elizabeth Barber überquert den Atlantik auf einem Kreuzfahrtschiff mit ihrem mehr als vorbildlichen Freund Derek. Ihrer großen Liebe Arthur hat sie den Rücken gekehrt - und damit auch ihrem Leben als Betrügerin. Auf Séancen hatten die beiden vorgegeben, Kontakt zu Verstorbenen aufzunehmen, und dabei reiche Klienten erleichtert. Mit Derek will sie nun den Weg in ein geregeltes Leben finden. Doch während er seekrank im Bett liegt, taucht plötzlich Arthur auf. Wird sie sich seinem Bann entziehen können? Die Antwort steht im Blauen Buch", das Elizabeth ihm schenkt und das eine magische Geschichte erzählt, die wahrhafter ist als alle Wirklichkeit. A. L. Kennedy wagt sich mit ihrem neuen Roman an das höchste der Gefühle. Ein buchstäblich zauberhaftes Buch. - A.L. Kennedy, 1965 im schottischen Dundee geboren, wurde bereits mit ihrem ersten Roman Einladung zum Tanz (2001) berühmt und zählt zu den wichtigsten zeitgenössichen englischen Autorinnen. Sie wurde mit zahlreichen wichtigen Literaturpreisen ausgezeichnet. 2007 erhielt sie den Österreichischen Staatspreis für Europäische Literatur. Kennedy lebt in Glasgow und unterrichtet kreatives Schreiben an der University of Warwick. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 586 Illustrierter Originaleinenband mit goldgeprägten Rücken- und Deckeltiteln, mit blauen Vorsätzen und Lesebändchen.

Book First Edition
Hardback. Condition: As New. First edition. First edition. Near fine and unread. No dust jacket as issued. Elizabeth Barber is crossing the Atlantic by liner with her perfectly adequate boyfriend, Derek, who might be planning to propose. In fleeing the UK - temporarily - Elizabeth may also be in flight from her past and the charismatic Arthur, once her partner in what she came to see as a series of crimes. Together they acted as fake mediums, perfecting the arcane skills practised by effective frauds. Elizabeth finally rejected what once seemed an intoxicating game. Arthur continued his search for the right way to do wrong. He now subsidises free closure for the traumatised and dispossessed by preying on the super-rich. The pair still meet occasionally, for weekends of sexual oblivion, but their affection lacerates as much as it consoles. She hadn't, though, expected the other man on the boat. As her voyage progresses, Elizabeth's past is revealed, codes slowly form and break as communication deepens. It's time for her to discover who are the true deceivers and who are the truly deceived. What's more, is the book itself - a fiction which may not always be lying - deceiving the reader? Offering illusions and false trails, magical numbers and redemptive humour, this is a novel about what happens when we are misled and when we are true: an extraordinarily intricate and intimate journey into our minds and hearts undertaken by a writer of great gifts - a maker of wonders. Book.
