Cusk R: Life of M / LF

Life of M

From the author of the Outline trilogy

“Charming, propulsive, and emotionally gripping.” —People “[A] riveting novel of madcap adventure.” —The&nbsp;New&nbsp;Yorker A rollicking debut&nbsp;novel about a&nbsp;cautious daughter and her eccentric, estranged mother venturing west in search of buried treasure—and a way back to each other—before they run out of patience, money, and options After being fired for taking an uncharacteristic risk at her commodities trading job, Bea Macon sublets her New York apartment and books a one-way ticket to stay with her mother, Christy, a free spirit who has been living in Salt Lake City on Bea's dime.&nbsp; Usually the responsible one, Bea isn't about to admit exactly why she's suddenly decided to visit, but she isn’t the only one keeping secrets: Christy has a man. She has a map. She has&nbsp;.&nbsp;.&nbsp;. a username on a forum devoted to unearthing $1 million in buried treasure that an antiquities dealer claims to have hidden somewhere in the western U.S.? Bea is convinced this is just another one of her mother’s wild larks, an elaborate way to refuse, as she has for Bea’s entire life, to finally grow up. But Christy believes she’s onto something—and she’s arranged a rendezvous in a rural town called Mercy with the guy she’s been obsessively trading theories with online to prove it.&nbsp;Out in the desert that one woman believes to be a promised land, the other a wasteland, they find themselves barreling toward a more high-stakes, transformative escapade than either of them could have imagined. Populated with unforgettable characters and set against one of the world’s most oddly enrapturing landscapes, Scavengers is a&nbsp;funny and heartbreaking novel about old injuries, new beginnings, and the lengths to which we’ll go to find, escape, and reinvent ourselves.

Fremde und Brüder

Snows Romanwerk, dessen Handlung sich vom Beginn des Ersten Weltkriegs bis in die Zeit der Studentenunruhen von 1968 erstreckt, zeichnet - in der Rückschau des pensionierten Hochschullehrers Lewis Eliot und dabei autobiografisch getönt - den Lebensweg eines britischen Akademikers aus der Mittelschicht durch die sogenannten "corridors of power" nach: von Eliots Jugend in eher bescheidenen Verhältnissen in einer englischen Provinzstadt über seine Karriere als Anwalt in London, als Beamter, als Dozent in Cambridge. Dabei bieten die Romane eine tiefgründige Untersuchung der britischen Arbeitswelt des 20. Jahrhunderts und deren Institutionen sowie des komplexen Zusammenspiels zwischen dem Privatleben und dem Streben nach Ansehen in Beruf und Öffentlichkeit - entlang all der vielen Fallstricke moralischer Entscheidungen und vor dem Hintergrund sozialer Spannungsgeflechte und weltpolitischer Veränderungen. Dabei erzählt Snow clever und nicht selten amüsant. Seine liebevoll ausgearbeiteten Charaktere binden die einzelnen Romane, die auch separat gut lesbar sind, in geradezu Proust'scher Manier aneinander.
Im dritten Teil der Romanreihe, der im Original 1958 erschien, gibt der Erzähler Einblicke in die Welt einer großen britischen Bankiersdynastie zwischen 1927 und 1936. Durch seine Freundschaft zu Charles March, dem Sohn und Erben des jüdischen Bankhauses March, mit dessen Familie verbunden, stehen Lewis Eliot die Auswirkungen der sozialen und politischen Veränderungen auf die reiche und traditionsbewusste Familie direkt vor Augen. Vor dem Hintergrund des Aufstiegs von Kommunismus und Faschismus sowie der Vorbereitung Großbritanniens auf einen neuen Krieg stehen allerhand private Krisen: Charles bricht seine vielversprechende juristische Karriere zugunsten der ihm nützlicher erscheinenden Medizin ab, seine Schwester Catherine verliebt sich in einen Nichtjuden, sein Onkel wird in zwielichtige politische Geschäfte verwickelt, und die Familie fällt langsam auseinander ...

Forty Love

“Shea Ernshaw is the queen of storytelling that is as haunting and dreamlike as it is intimate and grounded.” —Melissa Albert, New York Times bestselling author The second adult novel from New York Times bestselling author Shea Ernshaw, in which a woman rediscovers the mythical island she stumbled upon as a child—and the man she once met who apparently hasn’t aged—and must choose between the life she’s built and a love that defies the laws of time and nature. &gt; When the island vanishes overnight, Ellie is left questioning whether it ever existed at all. But decades later, the island resurfaces—and Ellie, now in her thirties, returns, determined to uncover the truth. What she finds is even stranger: Clay hasn’t aged a single day. Faced with the impossible, Ellie learns that some mysteries aren’t meant to be solved—and that a life shaped by wonder may hold more promise than one bound by certainty. Spanning centuries and coastlines, Habits of the Sea is a haunting, romantic journey through time, memory, and the invisible tides that pull us home.
