Illustrierte Originalbroschur. Condition: Wie neu. Erstausgabe. Leseexemplar. 311 Seiten. 21 cm Befriedigender Zustand. Leseexemplar. Einband leicht fleckig. Mit dem Abdruck einer Tasse auf dem Cover. From the National Book Awardwinning author of A Wrinkle in Time, an atmospheric novel of a young British bride in the American South after the Civil War. When nineteen-year-old Stella marries Theron Renier, she has no idea what kind of clan she's joined. Soon after their arrival at Illyria, the Reniers' rambling beachside home, Theron is sent on a diplomatic mission, leaving Stella alone with his family. As she tries to settle into her new life, Stella quickly discovers that the Reniers are not what they seem. Trapped in a world unlike anything she's ever known, vulnerable Stella attempts to uncover her new family's dangerous secretsand stirs up a darkness that was meant to stay buried. From the beloved, National Book Awardwinning author of A Wrinkle in Time, The Other Side of the Sun showcases Madeleine L'Engle's talent for involving and suspenseful storytelling. - Madeleine L'Engle (* 29. November 1918 in New York; 6. September 2007 in Litchfield, Connecticut, USA) war die Autorin zahlreicher Bücher für Kinder und Erwachsene. Biografie: Madeleine L'Engle wuchs als Tochter des Journalisten und Autors Charles Wadsworth Camp und der Pianistin Madeleine Hall Barnett Camp auf. L'Engle zog im Alter von zwölf Jahren mit ihren Eltern nach Europa und lebte in Frankreich und der Schweiz, wo sie ihre Schulzeit in Internaten verbrachte. Von der Luft der französischen und Schweizer Alpen versprachen sich ihre Eltern Linderung der Beschwerden ihres Vaters, der sich im Ersten Weltkrieg eine Verätzung der Lungen mit Senfgas zugezogen hatte. Zwei Jahre später kehrten sie nach South Carolina in die USA zurück, wo Madeleine Ashley Hall in Charleston wiederum ein Internat besuchte und nach dem Tod ihres Vaters am Smith College Englisch studierte. 1941 erlangte sie dort ihren Abschluss mit Auszeichnung. Während ihres Aufenthalts am College schrieb L'Engle bereits Theaterstücke und Kurzgeschichten. Die junge Collegeabsolventin zog nach Greenwich Village, wo sie kurzzeitig als Schauspielerin am Theater arbeitete und dort ihren späteren Ehemann, den Schauspieler Hugh Franklin kennenlernte. 1945 erschien L'Engles erster Roman The Small Rain, den sie mehr oder weniger hinter der Bühne und zwischen den Proben schrieb, gefolgt von Ilsa (1946). Nach ihrer Hochzeit zog sich L'Engle vom Theater zurück und hatte nun mehr Zeit, sich voll und ganz auf die Schriftstellerei zu konzentrieren. Allerdings wurden nach den anfänglichen Erfolgen die meisten der nachfolgenden Manuskripte von den Verlegern zurückgewiesen. L'Engle brachte in dieser Zeit ihr erstes Kind, ihre Tochter Josephine, zur Welt. Nachdem 1952 auch ihr Mann dem Theater den Rücken gekehrt hatte, kauften sie ein Farmhaus in Connecticut und hielten sich mit dem Betrieb eines kleinen Ladens recht gut über Wasser. Die Familie adoptierte ein Mädchen, Maria, und L'Engle bekam noch einen Sohn, Bion. Neben den täglichen Aufgaben im Geschäft und der Erziehung ihrer drei kleinen Kinder fand Madeleine L'Engle bestenfalls nachts die Zeit, ihrer großen Passion nachzugehen, dem Schreiben. Nachdem 1957 lediglich A Winter's Love erschienen war, wollte sie das Schreiben wegen der Belastung und der ständigen Ablehnung seitens der Verleger entnervt aufgeben, was sie jedoch bald verwarf. 1960 veröffentlichte L'Engle das Kinderbuch Meet the Austins (Wir Austins) erneut nach langer Zeit der Zurückweisung. Es wurde später eines ihrer beliebtesten Bücher. Zu dieser Zeit entschieden sich L'Engle und Franklin, nach New York zurückzukehren, wo L'Engle sich wieder voll auf das Schreiben konzentrieren konnte. Schließlich erschien 1962 das Buch, das zweifellos den Grundstein ihres Erfolgs darstellte: A Wrinkle in Time (deutsche Ausgaben unter den Titeln Die Zeitfalte, auch Spiralnebel 101). Nachdem L'Engle die Geschichte den Verlegern zweieinhalb Jahre lang vergeblich angeboten hatte, bescherte ihr.
