Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Once upon a time a big black bear found a manuscript under a tree. While he couldn't eat it, he did read it, and decided it wasn't bad. Borrowing some clothes from a local store, and the name Hal Jam from the label of his favourite food, he headed to New York to seek his fortune. Then he took the literary world by storm. The Bear Went Over the Mountain is a riotous, magical romp with the buoyant Hal Jam as he leaves the nurturing world of nature for the glittering world of man - where a bear makes good despite his animal instincts, and money-hungry executives see not a hairy beast with a purloined novel, but a rough-hewn, soulful, media-perfect nature guy who might just be the next Hemingway. Hilarious, ironic and tender, The Bear Went Over the Mountain is an irrestible fable for grown-ups. 'Delightful.hilarious.in Hal, Kotzwinkle has created a real star' ublishers Weekly. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Condition: Wie neu. Taschenbucherstausgabe. 270 (2) Seiten. 19 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: Cathrin Günther und Walter Hellmann. Lesetipp des Bouquinisten! Sehr guter Zustand. Frisches Exemplar. Wie ungelesen. In William Kotzwinkles neuestem Buch schickt der amerikanische Autor einen Bären auf die Reise durch die Welt der Medien und Verlage. Alles beginnt damit, daß ein Bär ein Manuskript im Wald findet. Er begutachtet es und hat an den Zutaten der Story nichts auszusetzen: viel Sex und Angeln. Der Bär nimmt das Manuskript ins Maul, gibt sich den Namen Hal Jam und macht sich auf den Weg zu einem Verleger. Seine Blitzkarriere als Schriftsteller beginnt. Kein Mensch sieht in dem neuen Star Hal Jam einen Bären -- durch seine unorthodoxe Art sich zu verhalten, sein ständiges Brummen und seine seltsame Angewohnheit, sich in den unpassendsten Momenten auf dem Boden zu räkeln, wird der kauzige Autor noch interessanter, die Frauen liegen ihm zu seinen Tatzen. Verleger und Journalisten jubeln: ein neuer Hemingway! Doch für einen stehen die Dinge gar nicht gut: Arthur Bramhall, der den Verlust seines Manuskriptes, das eigentlich sein Lebenswerk darstellen sollte, nur leidlich verkraftet und sich in seinem Schmerz in die tiefe Wildnis des Waldes zurückzieht. Kotzwinkle weiß, wovon er schreibt, denn der Schöpfer von E. T. hält sich schon lange in den Bestsellerlisten auf. Seine Beobachtungen hat er zusammengefaßt in einer Mischung aus Karikatur und modernem Märchen. Mit sprachlicher Leichtigkeit und Gott sei Dank ohne die ansonsten so weitverbreitete Bitterkeit bringt Kotzwinkle den Leser zum Lachen. Der bärige Held Hal Jam erobert mit seiner naiven Unschuld nicht nur in der Story Sympathien, sondern auch beim Leser. --Susanne Solau. - William Kotzwinkle (* 22. November 1943 in Scranton, Pennsylvania) ist ein amerikanischer Schriftsteller. Bekannt wurde Kotzwinkle vor allem als Autor des Buchs zum Film E. T." sowie einer Fortsetzung, die auf dem Heimatplaneten der außerirdischen Hauptfigur spielt; außerdem schrieb er unter anderem das Drehbuch zum US-amerikanischen Horrorfilm Nightmare 4 The Dream Master". Kotzwinkle besuchte das Rider College und die Pennsylvania State University. Nach verschiedenen Jobs begann er 1958 mit dem Schreiben und erhielt seitdem mehrere literarische Auszeichnungen. Er ist mit der Schriftstellerin Elizabeth Gundy verheiratet und lebt abwechselnd in den USA und Kanada. . Aus wikipedia Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 248.

"Once upon a time in rural Maine, a big black bear found a briefcase under a tree. Hoping for food, he dragged it into the woods, only to find that all it held was the manuscript of a novel. He couldn't eat it, but he did read it, and decided it wasn't bad. Borrowing some clothes from a local store, and the name Hal Jam from the labels of his favorite foods, he headed to New York to seek his fortune in the literary world. Then he took America by storm." "The Bear Went Over the Mountain is a riotous, magical romp with the buoyant Hal Jam as he leaves the quiet, nurturing world of nature for the glittering, moneyed world of man. With a pitch-perfect comic voice and an eye for social satire to rival Swift or Wolfe.a bear makes good despite his animal instincts.By turns sidesplittingly funny, stingingly ironic, and unexpectedly tender, [the book] captures the zeitgeist of the 1990's dead-on, in a delicious bedtime story for grown-ups.".
