103,95 - 198,95 kr. Fra den amerikanske mester Richard Ford kommer nu en vidunderlig og smuk erindringsbog om de to mennesker, der har præget den store forfatter allermest. Fords forældre - Edna, en livlig og køn pige med en problemfyldt fortid, og Parker, en mild og godmodig salgsmand, begge fra landet i Arkansas - blev født ved det 20. århundredes begyndelse. De blev gift 1928 og levede “alene sammen” på landevejen, hvor de rejste gennem sydstaterne. Endelig i 1944 fik de deres eneste barn, som de i mange år havde troet de aldrig skulle velsignes med. ‘Mellem dem’ er en gribende og smuk fortælling skrevet i Fords umiskendelig og suveræne stil, om den kærlighed vi allesammen kender eller længes efter, vores forældres kærlighed.

133,95 kr. First, I''ll tell about the robbery our parents committed. Then about the murders, which happened later.It was more bad instincts and bad luck that lead to Dell Parsons'' parents robbing a bank. They weren''t reckless people, but in an instant, their actions alter fifteen-year-old Dell''s sense of normal life forever. In the days that follow, he is saved before the authorities think to arrive. Driving across Montana, his life hurtles towards the unknown; a hotel in a deserted town, the violent and enigmatic Arthur Remlinger, and towards Canada itself. But, as Dell discovers, in this new world of secrets and upheaval, he is not the only one whose past lies on the other side of the border.

86,95 kr. ‘Sportsjournalisten’ er en storslået roman, som sendte Ford op på den amerikanske forfatterstjernehimmel og gjorde Frank Bascombe til et talerør for flere generationer. Som sportsjournalist ernærer Frank sig ved at studere andre mennesker - mest mænd - som lever i deres egen verden. Den livsform ser Frank selv som et mål. Men i en alder af otteogtredive lider han af en uhelbredelig trang til at drømme, et uroligt hjerte og det nylige tab af sin karriere, sin søn og sit ægteskab. Denne påske, hvor Frank igen møder sin eks-kone ved deres søns grav, er Frank dog i særlig grad ved siden af sig selv.

198,95 kr. To boast of Spain's strength, said the Duke of Wellington, is the national weakness. Every infinitesimal particle which constitutes nosotros, or ourselves, as Spaniards term themselves, will talk of his country as if the armies were still led to victory by the mighty Charles V., or the councils managed by Philip II. instead of Louis-Philippe. Fortunate, indeed, was it, according to a Castilian preacher, that the Pyrenees concealed Spain when the Wicked One tempted the Son of Man by an offer of all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them. This, indeed, was predicated in the mediæval or dark ages, but few peninsular congregations, even in these enlightened times, would dispute the inference. It was but the other day that a foreigner was relating in a tertulia, or conversazione of Madrid, the well-known anecdote of Adam's revisit to the earth.

'A masterful writer' - RAYMOND CARVEROver the course of four celebrated works of fiction and almost forty years, Richard Ford has crafted an ambitious, incisive and singular view of American life as lived.

On a shared winter's odyssey to Mount Rushmore, Frank in typical Bascombe fashion faces down the mortality that is assured each of us, and in doing so confronts what happiness might signify at the end of days.In this memorable novel, Richard Ford puts on display the prose, wit and intelligence that make him one of the world's most acclaimed living writers. Be Mine is a profound, funny, poignant love letter to our beleaguered world.'One of the finest achievements of modern American fiction' The Independent
