Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Condizione: Gut. Taschenbucherstausgabe. 541 (3) Seiten. 18,9 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: Gundula Hißmann und Andreas Heilmann. Guter Zustand. Buchecken minimal eselsohrig. Adie Klarpol landet als Zeichnerin in einem Computerlabor in Seattle: hier sollen die Computerbilder laufen lernen, um den Betrachter in den Sehnsüchten des eignen Blicks zu fangen. Taimur Martin ist Lehrer im Libanon. Von einer Zigarettenpause kehrt er nicht zurück, bleibt jahrelang als Geisel in einer Höhle isoliert. Auch er schafft künstliche Welten, nicht der Technik, sondern der Fantasie. Kunstvoll wie eine Doppelhelix und mit aktueller Brisanz verknüpft Richard Powers beide Geschichten zu einer Vision über den Verlust der Sinnlichkeit im leeren Sog der Logarithmen und zu einer Liebesgeschichte, deren Spannung und Poesie den Leser nicht mehr loslässt. - Richard Powers (* 18. Juni 1957 in Evanston, Illinois, USA) ist ein US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller. Er gilt als wichtiger Romancier der Gegenwart. Bekannt wurde Powers vor allem für die literarische Verarbeitung naturwissenschaftlicher und philosophischer Themen, so etwa der aktuellen Gehirnforschung und ihrer psychologischen Implikationen in seinem bekanntesten und preisgekrönten Werk Das Echo der Erinnerung oder der Musikalität und ihrer politischen Relevanz in seiner Familiensaga Der Klang der Zeit. . Leben: Richard Powers wuchs in einem Vorort von Chicago auf. Im Alter von knapp elf Jahren ging er mit seiner Familie nach Bangkok, wo sein Vater eine Stelle als Lehrer an der Internationalen Schule angenommen hatte. Nach fünf Jahren kehrte er zurück in die USA und studierte zunächst an der University of Illinois Physik. Ich wollte immer Wissenschaftler werden, zunächst Ozeanograf, später studierte ich Physik Nach und nach bekam ich unter den Physikern Platzangst, durch ihren Reduktionismus, der eine so extreme Spezialisierung verlangt, dass jede Entscheidung für eine Sache die Entscheidung gegen Millionen andere Sachen bedeutet. Damals entpuppte sich mein altes Hobby Lesen und Schreiben als Berufung." Powers wechselte das Fach und studierte Literaturwissenschaften, die ihn allerdings auch frustrierten. Er nahm zunächst eine Stelle als Programmierer an. Eine Fotografie von August Sander im Kunstmuseum von Boston, die drei Bauern aus dem Westerwald 1914 auf dem Weg zu einem Fest zeigt, faszinierte ihn so, dass er seine Arbeit kündigte und seinen ersten Roman Drei Bauern auf dem Weg zum Tanz verfasste. Das Buch wurde ein überraschender Erfolg. 1985 zog er in die Niederlande, wo er seinen zweiten Roman Prisoner's Dilemma zu Ende schrieb und einen weiteren, The Gold Bug Variations, verfasste. Nach einem einjährigen Aufenthalt in Cambridge kehrte er 1993 in die Vereinigten Staaten zurück und nahm eine Lehrtätigkeit an der University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign an und veröffentlichte fünf weitere Romane. Zur Zeit wohnt er in Urbana, Illinois. 1989 erhielt Powers den Genie-Preis" der MacArthur-Stiftung und 1999 den Lannan Literary Award. 2006 wurde Powers für seinen Roman Das Echo der Erinnerung der National Book Award for Fiction zugesprochen. 2008 ließ Powers als neunter Mensch überhaupt sein Genom sequenzieren, was er in seiner Reportage Das Buch Ich # 9 beschreibt. Im Sommersemester 2009 lehrte Richard Powers als Samuel-Fischer-Gastprofessor an der Freien Universität Berlin. 2019 wurde Die Wurzeln des Lebens als Wissensbuch des Jahres ausgezeichnet. Zwei Jahre später gelangte Powers mit seinem Roman Erstaunen auf die Shortlist des britischen Booker Prize. . . Aus: wikipedia-Richard_Powers. Sprache: Deutsch Gewicht in Gramm: 430.
