Die Leute, die sie vorübergehen sahen

Die Dreijährige Sal Jensen wird entführt. Doch das Leben bei ihrem neuen Daddy ist erst der Beginn einer seltsamen, atmosphärisch dichten Reise. Selbstständig beginnt Sal, auf der Suche nach einem Zuhause, von Haushalt zu Haushalt zu wandern und begegnet dabei den absonderlichsten Individuen: dem wortkargen Waschsalon Besitzer, der abgehalfterten Vermieterin, einem altjungen Mann ... Unsentimental und philosophisch heiter kommentiert Sal diese narzisstische Erwachsenenwelt. Scott Bradfield ist mit seinem neuen Roman ein großer Wurf gelungen. Die Entführung Sals ist keine Opfergeschichte, sondern ein sezierender, weiser, oft auch humoristischer Blick auf die amerikanische Gesellschaft. Mitreißend bis zur letzten Seite!

For European revolutionaries like Godwin or Rousseau, the tyranny of the king must be replaced by the m...
