About this Item: Wien : Buchgemeinschaft Donauland, [1969]., 1969. Condition: Gut. Lizenzausgabe. 46. - 70. Tausend. 791 (1)Seiten. Guter Zustand. Rückenvergoldung leicht abgerieben. Einband minimal lichtrandig. Von der Mitte des letzten Jahrhunderts bis zum Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs reicht die Zeitspanne, die diese große amerikanische Familiensaga umfaßt. Sie erzählt die Geschichte der Trasks und der Hamiltons: die Geschichte von Charles und Adam, den ungleichen Brüdern, die um die Liebe ihres Vaters buhlen und den Reizen derselben Frau erliegen. Von eben jener Cathy die ihren Mann und die neugeborenen Zwillinge verläßt, um sich ihren Lebensunterhalt in einem Bordell zu verdienen. Und von Aron und Caleb, ihren beiden Söhnen, deren spannungsgeladenes Verhältnis in einer modernen Version des biblischen Kainsmythos gipfelt. - John Ernst Steinbeck (* 27. Februar 1902 in Salinas, Kalifornien; 20. Dezember 1968 in New York) gehört zu den erfolgreichsten US-amerikanischen Autoren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Er schrieb zahlreiche Romane, Kurzgeschichten und Novellen, arbeitete zeitweilig auch als Journalist und war im Zweiten Weltkrieg 1943 als Kriegsberichterstatter tätig. 1940 erhielt er den Pulitzer-Preis für seinen Roman Früchte des Zorns und 1962 den Nobelpreis für Literatur. . Zu Steinbecks Werk: John Steinbeck gehört zu den meistgelesenen amerikanischen Autoren des 20. Jahrhunderts, innerhalb wie außerhalb der USA. Kritik und Literaturwissenschaft beurteilten sein Werk jedoch eher distanziert. Bereits die Verleihung des Nobelpreises im Jahr 1962 für seine einmalige realistische und phantasievolle Erzählkunst, gekennzeichnet durch mitfühlenden Humor und sozialen Scharfsinn", wie es in der Begründung hieß, stieß bei den meisten Literaturkritikern auf Unverständnis. Heute spielen Steinbecks Werke im amerikanischen Literaturkanon kaum mehr eine Rolle, mit Ausnahme der Bücher Früchte des Zorns und Von Mäusen und Menschen, die in vielen englischsprachigen Ländern von Kanada bis Australien zur Schullektüre gehören. . .
