The Tsimshian people of coastal British Columbia use a system of hereditary name-titles in which names are treated as objects of inheritable wealth. Human agency and social status reside in names rather than in the individuals who hold these names, and the politics of succession associated with names and name-taking rituals have been, and continue to be, at the center of Tsimshian life.

»Macht brutal gute Laune. Der erste deutsche Roman, der null Komma null Probleme hat.« Aus dem Vorwort von Moritz von Uslar München 1981: Es war ein anderes Land, aber es waren die gleichen Fragen. Was ist richtig, was ist falsch? Damals wie heute ging es um Schuhe. Und um Autos. Ein 200D muss es sein für Boris, nur der ist richtig und nur in der richtigen Farbe: rot, Feuerwehr. Genauigkeit war wichtig, daraus entstand Wirklichkeit: Namen auf Klingelschildern und von Prominenten, eine Folge von Dallas, ein Friseurtermin bei Vidal Sassoon. Es wird viel gefeiert in diesem Buch, und schließlich gibt es noch eine Ohrfeige für Dorothe. Später nannten die Kritiker so etwas Popliteratur, aber als Roth das Buch 1982 veröffentlichte, waren die meisten einfach sprachlos. Ja bitte, was ist denn das? Heute, 30 Jahre später, ist dieser Klassiker neu zu entdecken.
