Описание:
Edward Jones is an easygoing Southern salesman whose company only assigns him their most important contracts. But that's not a problem for Edward; after all, the more important contracts equal more money in his pockets.
And even though his Papaw and Daddy also did this same kind of work, they never came up against anything as complicated as Edward's latest assignment: Dr. Jared Young, a generous parochial-school headmaster with a gorgeous wife and three wonderful sons, all thriving in an idyllic community up in Hutchinson County. Jared and his family don't know it yet, but Edward's going to do everything in his power--like temporarily adopting a destitute-yet-philosophical Mexican child and buying armloads of retina-searing John Cena t-shirts--to turn their world entirely upside down, all so he can earn his biggest commission yet.
Equal parts satirical dark comedy, neo-Western thriller, and meditation on modern manhood--with an adorable Yorkshire Terrier thrown in for good measure--Tabernacle will have readers (and, with a little bit of luck, Jared Young himself) hooked on its unpredictable plot and wicked sense of humor before they even know what's hit them.

Описание: Demographers say that by the year 2060, every seventh person in Germany will be aged eighty or older, and every third person over sixty-five. The prediction for other Western countries is scarcely different. Indeed, the aging society is seen by some as a graver threat than even global warming, with potentially unmanageable tensions relating to intergenerational relationships, work and benefits, and flows of people. This book explores the representation and performance of aging in recent "late-style" German-language fiction. It situates the authors chosen as case studies -- Günter Grass, Ruth Klüger, Christa Wolf, and Martin Walser -- in their biographical and social contexts and explores the significance of their aesthetic figuring of aging for debates raging both in Germany and internationally. In particular, the book looks at gender, generations, and trauma and their impact on how writers "narrativize" aging. Finally, it examines the "timeliness" of these different representations and late-style performances of aging in the context of the shift of social, political, and economic power away from the declining societies of the West to the ascendant societies of the East. Stuart Taberner is Professor of Contemporary German Literature, Culture, and Society at the University of Leeds.
