Produktinformationen zu „Teufel-Hunden (PDF)“
In 1962, three young men from South Dakota fly to San Diego and enter Marine Corps Boot Camp together. Butch and Danny, his best friend, survive the rigorous training and the physical and psychological torment by submissively following orders and by staying out of harm’s way.
However, the third member of trio, Jim O’Donnell, an arrogant and insubordinate college dropout, incurs the immediate wrath of Sergeant “Teddy Bear” Taddy, a violent and seemingly mentally unstable drill instructor, who dislikes Jim intensely and derisively calls him “College Boy.”
At the Rifle Range, Sergeant Taddy ultimately pushes the abuse and humiliation of Private O’Donnell too far. As a result, Butch, fearing for Jim’s very life, must decide whether or not to get involved.

Autoren-Porträt von I.M. Tillerman
In 1944, I was born in South Dakota in my great-grandmother’s house. Most of my childhood was spent living on farms near Sioux Falls.In the early 1970’s, after graduating from Augustana and Purdue, I was hired as a full-time English Instructor at a college in a suburb of Chicago and for twenty-nine years taught Composition and Literature there as a Professor in the English Department. I took early retirement and since then have been a serious author, having written six novels.
In the early ‘60’s, while I was in the Marines, I married my high school sweetheart, and we had a daughter, who now has two children, my nifty grandkids. After my first wife died tragically, I later remarried. My wife and I have two teenage daughters.
The most profound literary influences on me as a writer are the very authors whom I taught to college students for three decades: Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Emerson, Thoreau, Hawthorne, Melville, Twain, Fitzgerald, and Tennessee Williams. The two strongest literary influences on me, however, are the sublime poet, Emily Dickinson, and Hemingway, who wrote: “A writer should be of his great probity as a priest of God. He is either honest or not…, and after one piece of dishonest writing, he is never the same again” (Amen, Papa).
