Story
Die Hölle, das sind immer die anderen... Was passiert, wenn man vier Männer und vier Frauen in ein riesiges Terrarium einsperrt? T. C. Boyles fabelhafter Roman, basierend auf einer wahren Geschichte, erzählt vom halsbrecherischen Versuch, eine neue Welt zu erschaffen, um sich vor dem Untergang unserer eigenen zu retten. Zwar bleibt die schöne neue Welt im Glas von Kriegen, Epidemien und Umweltkatastrophen verschont. Doch es kommt darauf an, wer mit im Glashaus sitzt.

Story
In the title story of this rich new collection, T.C. Boyle has created so vivid and original a retelling of the story of Victor, the feral boy who was captured running naked through the forests of Napoleonic France, that it becomes not just new, but definitive: yes, this is how it must have been. The tale is by turns magical and moving, a powerful investigation of what it means to be human. There is perhaps no one better than T. C. Boyle at engaging, shocking, and ultimately gratifying his readers.

Topanga Canyon is home to two couples on a collision course. Los Angeles liberals Delaney and Kyra Mossbacker lead an ordered, sushi-and-recycling existence in a newly gated hilltop community: He is a sensitive nature writer, she an obsessive realtor.

Story
Few authors write with such sheer love of story and language as T. C. Boyle, and that is nowhere more evident than in his inventive, wickedly funny, and always entertaining short stories. Here are 14 new tales previously unpublished in book form. By turns mythic and realistic, farcical and tragic, ironic and moving, Boyle's stories have mapped a wide range of human emotions. The stories here reflect his maturing themes.

Story
Told through the experiences of the four women who loved him, this imaginative account of Frank Lloyd Wright's raucous life blazes with Boyle's trademark wit and invention. Boyle's protean voice captures these very different women and, in doing so, creates a masterful ode to the creative life in all its complexity and grandeur.

Story
Endlich: Wassermusik als Komplettlesung! Boyle erzählt die weitgehend wahre Geschichte des schottischen Forschers Mungo Park, der Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts als erster Weißer den Verlauf des Niger erkundete und von seiner zweiten Reise nicht mehr zurückkam. Frei erfunden ist hingegen die Figur des Ned Rise, der mit dem spröden Briten die wildesten Abenteuer besteht. Den beiden Helden zugesellt ist ein phantastisches Panoptikum von Hexen und Schlägern, Kannibalen, Huren, Glücksrittern. Mit einem Wort: Boyle at his best!

Story
T. C. Boyles Roman über den Psychologen und Hippie Timothy Leary und dessen LSD-Experimente: hell, bunt und wie ein Rausch. Endlich wird der aufstrebende wissenschaftliche Assistent Fitz auf eine der LSD-Partys seines Professors, dem Psychologen und LSD-Guru Timothy Leary, eingeladen. Er erhofft sich davon einen wichtigen Karriereschritt, merkt aber bald, dass Learys Ziele weniger medizinischer Natur sind; es geht dem Psychologen um eine Revolution des Bewusstseins und eine von sozialen Zwängen losgelöste Lebensform.

Story
Robert Coover has been playing by his own rules for more than half a century, earning the 1987 Rea Award for the Short Story as "a writer who has managed, willfully and even perversely, to remain his own man while offering his generous vision and versions of America." Coover finds inspiration in everything from painting, cinema, theater, and dance to slapstick, magic acts, puzzles, and riddles. His 1969 story, "The Babysitter," has alone inspired generations of innovative young writers. Here, in this selection of 30 of his best stories, you will find an invisible man tragically obsessed by an invisible woman.

Gordon is a delivery driver with a predilection toward road rage, and he's on the most important delivery of his life. In Santa Barbara there's a mother of three on life support waiting for Gordon, waiting for the liver he's transporting from Los Angeles. But there's a mudslide, and cars are being swept away, people being buried in the sludge. And Gordon, who's as far from a hero as they come, has to find a way to get the liver to Santa Barbara.

Die dunkle Seite der amerikanischen Seele. Eine betörende Frau lässt sich auf den Hundemann ein - kurz zuvor hatte sie ihm ihre Kätzchen anvertraut, doch was er mit denen vorhat, kann sie nicht ahnen. Eine Zwölfjährige soll vor Gericht gegen ihren alkoholkranken Vater aussagen; und plötzlich gibt es viele Wahrheiten: gute und schlechte, notwendige und schmerzliche. Ein Witwer legt sich eine Schlange zu, aber die Ratten, mit denen er sie füttern will, wachsen ihm so sehr ans Herz, dass er am Ende Dreizehnhundert von ihnen beherbergt.
