Rezension zu „The Lobster Kings “
Advance praise for "The Lobster Kings" "So big on legend, rich in style and crowded with the kind of people who simultaneously seduce you and tear at the foundations of your understanding, it makes you want to drop your life, call the movers and buy a one-way ticket to Zentner's universe. "The Lobster Kings" confirms what "Touch" already prophesied: Alexi Zentner is one of the greatest literary architects and mythmakers working today." Tea Obreht, author of "The Tiger's Wife""Just as compelling as the dragons, mermaids and selkies that may inhabit the waters of Loosewood Island are its year-round residents, besieged by tourists, art historians and drug smugglers. With a knowing nod to Lear, "The Lobster Kings" follows a patriarch's fading powers and a dynasty's uncertain future in the face of a changing world. As in his wonderful debut, "Touch", Alexi Zentner gives us a family saga that contains the origin story of a magical, once timeless place where the past and present must inevitably collide." Stewart O'Nan, author of "Last Night at the Lobster" and "Emily, Alone"
