Are You Somebody is a moving and fascinating portrait of both Ireland and one of its most popular and respected commentators. This gem of honesty and insight had its first life as the introduction to a collection of Nuala O'Faolain's Irish Times columns that became a number-one bestseller in Ireland. It now stands alone. Ireland has fallen in love with this memoir of an Irish woman of letters, and now this country will too.

Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Condition: Gut. 252 (4) Seiten. 19 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: any.way, Wiebke Buckow / Martina Klobke. Guter Zustand. Was für ein Buch! Furchtbar. Über weite Strecken versackt es in der Aufzählung irgendwelcher Kulturgrößen, denen die Autorin begegnet ist. Englische Kulturgrößen wohlgemerkt; auf Erklärungen für deutsche Leser hat der Verlag leider verzichtet. Schlimme Übersetzung. Englische Satzstellungen bleiben einfach stehen, falsche Präpositionen ebenso. Der Text oft kaum verständlich: Wenn zum Beispiel arts und sciences einfach mit Künste und Wissenschaften wiedergegeben werden, obwohl die Autorin sagen möchte, ihr Geliebter, ein Naturwissenschaftler, habe sie, die Literaturwissenschaftlerin, wider Erwarten gut verstanden, dann gerät der Sinn unter die Räder. Und doch, und doch, und doch: Was für ein Buch! Vom Suff handelt es. Vom Trinken aus Begeisterung, aus Verzweiflung, aus keinem besonderen Grund. Aus Einsamkeit. Ums Lesen geht es. Lesen aus Begeisterung, aus Gier, aus keinem besonderen Grund. Vor allem aus Einsamkeit.Und von der Liebe handelt das Buch. Liebe aus Verzweiflung, aus keinem besonderen Grund. Weil man sie schon immer gebraucht hat. Gebraucht hätte. Einfach um die grenzenlose Einsamkeit zu besiegen. Ständig ist vom körperlichen Verhältnis der Geschlechter die Rede. Vom Fummeln hinterm Bretterzaun, der Entjungferung auf der Couch, der Angst vor Schwangerschaft, vom Keine-Kinder-Kriegen, vom Betatschtwerden, von Orgasmen. Und um den Mangel an all dem geht es, um die Sehnsucht, die Sehnsucht, die Sehnsucht. Um die Hoffnungslosigkeit eines alternden Körpers, um eine Verzweiflung, um eine Resignation. Allerdings und Gott sei Dank: Nichts für Voyeure. Keine Krassheiten, keine four-letter-words, kein Gesuhle in Dreck, Blut, Sperma. Die Abteilung absonderliche Sexualpraktiken bleibt geschlossen. Kaufen? Sie werden sich garantiert ärgern. Aber Sie werden sich auch die Augen wischen. --Michael Winteroll. - Nuala O'Faolain (* 1. März 1940 in Dublin; 9. Mai 2008 ebenda) war eine irische Journalistin und Schriftstellerin. Leben: O'Faolain wurde als Tochter eines irischen Journalisten in Dublin geboren. Sie studierte in Dublin, Hull und Oxford und arbeitete zunächst als Universitätsdozentin und als Fernsehproduzentin, bevor sie eine renommierte Kolumnistin der Irish Times wurde. Später lebte sie alternierend in Irland und in Brooklyn, New York. In der ersten ihrer beiden Autobiografien, Are You Somebody? The Accidental Memoir of a Dublin Woman, hatte sie 1996 ihr Coming-out und berichtete von ihrer langjährigen Beziehung mit der Journalistin Nell McCafferty. Als O'Faolain an Krebs erkrankte, lehnte sie eine Chemotherapie zunächst ab und entschloss sich zu reisen. Sie starb im Mai 2008 in Dublin. In Deutschland wurde sie bekannt, als ihr Buch Ein alter Traum von Liebe in der Sendung Lesen! von Elke Heidenreich vorgestellt wurde. . . wikipedia-Nuala_O'Faolain.
