    Niveau Unterhaltungswert Spannung Aufmachung Angebote zu Die Einkreisung / Carr, Caleb Jetzt kaufen Jetzt verkaufen Pro: Nervenkitzel bis zum Schluss Kontra: Teilweise etwas langatmig, besonders am Anfang Wie ich vielleicht in einigen meiner Berichte schon erwähnt habe, bin ich selbst ein kleiner Autor und versuche, mich so realistisch, wie möglich mit den Themen, über die ich schreibe, zu befassen. Mein derzeitiger Roman (falls man das so nennen kann) handelt von einem Serienkiller. Da ich aber nur aus einschlägigen Filmen über diese Dinge gehört habe, fiel es mir etwas schwer, mir ein Bild über die Psyche, den Charakter, kurz über das gesamte Bild eines solchen Menschen zu machen.
    Für mich relevant war vor allem die ausgeklügelte und ausgefeilte Arbeit von Dr. Kreisler, der wirklich Schritt für Schritt das Wesen des/der Verbrecher analysiert und bewertet. Er war hier sozusagen einer der ersten Profiler der Geschichte.

October 1997
On the Lower East Side with Caleb Carr, talking about a dark obsession
Interview by Laura Reynolds Adler "I f anybody had said to me when I was an adolescent, 'You're going to write fiction one day,' I would have said, 'You're out of your mind!'" says Caleb Carr. "Because I thought all fiction was this kind of confessional, drunken, contemporary . . . BLECCCHHH!!" He sticks out his tongue as he says it, then lets loose a cackle. "If that isn't too fine a word to put on it." It was not until 1991 that Carr found a form of fiction to suit him, some 11 years after publishing his first novel, entitled "Casing the Promised Land." "It was one of those bildungsroman, coming-of-age things," he says dismissively of his literary debut. "That kind of pseudo-autobiographical contemporary fiction." The 42-year-old author feels that fiction should be about more than "just what happened to you. If you can't find a way to make it a more universal truth and a more universal experience," he explains, "you're not doing your job as a writer."

Carr, Caleb The Alienist
Genre Novel (496 pp.) Keywords Body Self-Image Disease and Health Father-Son Relationship History of Medicine ... Urban Violence Summary The story begins with Theodore Roosevelt's funeral. The narrator, a reporter with the New York Times, decides to tell a story that happened more than 20 years earlier in 1896 when Roosevelt was Police Commissioner of New York City. A serial killer is murdering young male prostitutes. Roosevelt invites the infamous Dr. Laszlo Kreizler to form a special unit to track down the killer. The unit also includes the narrator and three members of the police department. Kreizler's qualification is that he is an alienist who champions the radical new concept of forensic psychiatry: the belief that one can predict a criminal's behavior by reconstructing his personality based on evidence in the crimes themselves. This concept smacks of determinism. Thus, Kreizler was violently opposed by many, including the religious establishment, who believed Kreizler was denying that people were morally responsible for their crimes. Because of the sensitivity of their mission, the small investigative unit operates secretly, but runs into powerful opposition. Over several months Kreizler and his colleagues perform the seemingly impossible job of identifying and tracking down the killer, using Kreizler's psychological methods.

      Dans un petit village de Sicile, Luparello, figure politique locale, est retrouvé mort dans une voiture au « Bercail », une espèce de terrain vague où traînent des couples illicites, des marginaux et des drogués. La position du mort, sa présence même dans un lieu pareil sont tout à fait intrigantes, mais la cause de sa mort semble naturelle. Alors que les différentes autorités sont pressées de l'enterrer, le commissaire Montalbano demande la permission d'enquêter sur ce décès encore quelques jours.... Une mort naturelle en Sicile, cela le surprend! C'est le premier roman de Camilleri où apparaît le personnage du commissaire Montalbano, un flic bien sympathique, bourru, nonchalant, généreux, qui doit sans cesse louvoyer entre mafia, personnalités politiques locales et autres petits truands. Il analyse les personnalités pour rechercher les failles qui ont pu amener les personnes à agir de telle ou telle manière....

    Romancier et essayiste, Caleb Carr se considère lui-même comme " une voix perdue dans le désert ". Son écriture est définie par les critiques comme un brassage des divers courants du polar ancien et moderne. Désireux d'écrire des romans à la fois populaires et pédagogiques, Caleb Carr n'a cessé d'analyser les racines de la violence.
    Romans policiers et thrillers historiques/a>
    Ancré dans l'ambiance délétère de l'Amérique fin de siècle, son diptyque romanesque new-yorkais (" L'Aliéniste " et " L'Ange des ténèbres ") est remarquable pour la pertinence de son analyse psychologique : l'intérêt des intrigues n'est pas de découvrir qui est l'auteur du crime mais de comprendre ses motifs. Ce sont des thrillers historiques parfaitement documentés, sublimés par les descriptions détaillées des lieux, les personnages multiples et les intrigues à rebondissement.

    Caleb Carr - ( The Alienist The Angel of Darkness
    Highly, highly recommended. A combination of history, murder mystery, courtroom drama, and psychological thriller, set in 1890s New York. The two books feature the same cast of characters, most prominently Dr. Lazlo Kriezler, a controversial and talented "alienist" or mental health specialist. Carr is a historian by nature, and figures such as Theodore Roosevelt, Clarence Darrow, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, John Pierpont Morgan, Inspector Thomas Byrnes, and Albert Pinkham Ryder appear as fully fleshed out characters also. The premise: a serial killer is on the loose, and the corrupt New York PD is incapable of dealing with the situation. Kreizler's team includes Marcus and Lucius Isaacson, two detective sergeants who are frustrated by their fellow officers' failure to accept "modern" methods of detecting; Sara Howard, a feminist secretary in the station house who yearns for a chance to use her extraordinary mind on more than paperwork; John Schuyler Moore, a journalist for the Times and cast-off member of a high society family; Stevie Taggert, an streetwise 11-year-old whom Kriezler rescued from an unjust prison sentence; and Cyrus Montrose, who plays piano beautifully and was taken under Kreizler's wing after killing a racist cop in a blind rage.
