Softcover. Condition: new. A satire of writerly ambition wrapped in a psychological thriller . . . An homage to Patricia Highsmith, Oscar Wilde and Edgar Allan Poe, but its execution is entirely Boynes own.-Ron Charles, The Washington PostNAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST AND MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNEMaurice Swift is handsome, charming, and hungry for fame. The one thing he doesnt have is talent-but hes not about to let a detail like that stand in his way. After all, a would-be writer can find stories anywhere. They dont need to be his own.Working as a waiter in a West Berlin hotel in 1988, Maurice engineers the perfect opportunity: a chance encounter with celebrated novelist Erich Ackermann. He quickly ingratiates himself with the powerful - but desperately lonely - older man, teasing out of Erich a terrible, long-held secret about his activities during the war. Perfect material for Maurices first novel.Once Maurice has had a taste of literary fame, he knows he can stop at nothing in pursuit of that high. Moving from the Amalfi Coast, where he matches wits with Gore Vidal, to Manhattan and London, Maurice hones his talent for deceit and manipulation, preying on the talented and vulnerable in his cold-blooded climb to the top. But the higher he climbs, the further he has to fall. . . .Sweeping across the late twentieth century, A Ladder to the Sky is a fascinating portrait of a relentlessly immoral man, a tour de force of storytelling, and the next great novel from an acclaimed literary virtuoso.Praise for A Ladder to the SkyBoyne's mastery of perspective, last seen in The Heart's Invisible Furies, works beautifully here. . . . Boyne understands that it's far more interesting and satisfying for a reader to see that narcissist in action than to be told a catchall phrase. Each step Maurice Swift takes skyward reveals a new layer of calumny he's willing to engage in, and the desperation behind it . . . so dark it seems almost impossible to enjoy reading A Ladder to the Sky as much as you definitely will enjoy reading it.-NPRDelicious . . . spins out over several decades with thrilling unpredictability, following Maurice as he masters the art of co-opting the stories of others in increasingly dubious ways. And while the book reads as a thriller with a body count that would make Highsmith proud, it is also an exploration of morality and art: Where is the line between inspiration and thievery? To whom does a story belong?-Vanity Fair.

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 2.Aufl. Roter Pappeinband mit geprägtem Rückentitel, Lesebändchen und fotografisch gestaltetem Schutzumschlag in rundum gutem Erhaltungszustand. "Maurice Swift ist Schriftsteller. Er hat Stil, kann brillant erzählen, doch ihm fehlen die Geschichten. In Westberlin trifft er auf sein Idol, Erich Ackermann, der gerade mit einem großen Literaturpreis ausgezeichnet wurde. Ackermann verfällt dem charmanten jungen Mann, der sich für alles, was er sagt, interessiert. Er nimmt ihn mit auf Lesereise durch Europa und erzählt ihm sein Geheimnis. Es ist diese Geschichte, für die Maurice endlich als Autor gefeiert wird. Und die Ackermanns Karriere beendet. Maurice dagegen ist schon auf der Suche nach dem nächsten Stoff. . . Psychologisch raffiniert, hochspannend und mit funkelndem Humor erzählt John Boyne von der verführerischen Macht des Vertrauens und von einem, der für Ruhm alles tut. "Ein Roman wie Der talentierte Mr. Ripley, voll von gieriger Täuschungslust" New York Post "Ein brillant geschriebener Roman, der einem in seiner Gnadenlosigkeit den Atem stocken lässt." WDR2 " (Verlagstext) John Boyne (* 30. April 1971 in Dublin, Irland) ist ein Schriftsteller. Er veröffentlichte bisher 23 Romane und verschiedene Kurzgeschichten. Mit seinem Roman The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (2006, dt. Der Junge im gestreiften Pyjama, 2007) schrieb Boyne einen weltweiten Bestseller, der auch von Miramax verfilmt wurde. Boyne lebt in Dublin. John Boyne studierte Englische Literatur am Trinity College Dublin und Kreatives Schreiben an der University of East Anglia in Norwich. Mit Der Junge im gestreiften Pyjama gelang Boyne der internationale literarische Durchbruch. Es wurde bis 2022 in 57 Sprachen übersetzt, über neun Millionen Exemplare wurden verkauft. 2007 wurde das Buch in Budapest verfilmt. 2013 war er Jurymitglied der Auszeichnung Das außergewöhnliche Buch des Kinder- und Jugendprogramms des Internationalen Literaturfestivals Berlin.
