Book First Edition
Leinen. Condition: gut. Lizenzausgabe. Illustrierter Ganzleineneinband mit Rücken- und Deckeltitel, farbigen Vorsätzen und Lesebändchen. Der Seitenrand des Vorderdeckels im unteren Drittel etwas fleckig (s. Foto), die Schnitte partiell berieben bzw. mit einzelnen kleinen Kratzern, einzelne Seiten mit winzigem Knickchen einer Ecke, ansonsten guter Erhaltungszustand. " "Schau heimwärts, Engel" ist eines der legendären Romanepen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Betörend durch die Unmittelbarkeit des Erzählten wie durch eine Sprachkunst, in der schonungsloser Realismus und lyrische Anmut Hand in Hand gehen, gilt es als stilbildend für die moderne amerikanische Erzähltradition bis hin zu Jonathan Franzen. "Home, sweet home". Doch die Verhältnisse, in die der Romanheld Eugene Gant hineingeboren wird, sind alles andere als heimelig. Ein jähzorniger Alkoholiker der Vater, eine berechnende Krämerseele die Mutter, wird sein Elternhaus im Nu zur Keimzelle zwischenmenschlicher Dramen. Bei aller Erbitterung und Zwietracht der Gants erweist sich ihr Clan aber auch als Hort eines unbändigen Lebenswillens. "Schau heimwärts, Engel", erschienen 1929, zeigt vielfältigste Facetten häuslichen Glücks und Unglücks und liest sich über weite Strecken als Abrechnung mit dem Heiligtum des "American way of life": der Familie. Aufs Exemplarische abzielend, erwächst aus der drei Generationen überspannenden Chronik ein faszinierendes Zeit und Sittenbild der Vereinigten Staaten, eine Erkundung der Mythen und Mentalitäten des Landes und nicht zuletzt ein Hymnus auf dessen nie versiegende Vitalität. Die erste kommentierte Ausgabe und nach Jahrzehnten wieder eine zeitgemäße deutsche Fassung des legendären Klassikers." (Verlagstext Manesse) "Irma Wehrlis Neuübertragung befreit den Text vom angestaubten Charme der alten Version und von mancherlei Schnitzern. Sie gibt den kräftigen Stilfarben des Originals auf Deutsch neuen Glanz, in der Lebhaftigkeit der Dialoge, der üppigen Bildersprache, in Klang und Rhythmik der syntaktischen Kaskaden. Denn dieses stark autobiographische Zeugnis eines verzehrenden Lebenshungers, mit seinen unvergesslichen Charakteren und einer Stofffülle, ist nicht zuletzt ein stilistisches Brillantfeuerwerk. Es ist ein Stil ohne Scheu vor großen Worten und Gefühlen." Werner von Koppenfels, FAZ Thomas Clayton Wolfe (* 3. Oktober 1900 in Asheville, North Carolina; gestorben 15. September 1938 in Baltimore, Maryland) war ein amerikanischer Schriftsteller. Wolfe wurde als letztes von acht Kindern in Ashville, North Carolina, als Sohn einer irisch-schottischen Mutter und eines pennsylvaniadeutschen Steinmetzen geboren. Er studierte vier Jahre an der University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, war Schauspieler bei den Carolina Playmakers und studierte ab 1920 weiter an der Harvard University. Nach Misserfolgen als Dramatiker hatte er von 1924 bis 1929 eine Stelle als Dozent für amerikanische Literatur und Englisch am Washington Square College der Universität New York, die er dann jedoch aufgab, um sich ganz dem Schreiben zu widmen.
