Bastei Lübbe 704 Seiten ISBN: DM 12,9,- Ersch. 1976 unter dem Titel "The Great Santini" Deutsch 1989 Bull Meecham, nach eigener Aussage der verdammt beste Kampfpilot auf Erden, kehrt nach einem Jahr in Europa wieder nach USA zurück. Ein Jahr lang hatten seine Frau Lilian, die Kinder Ben, Mary-Anne, Matt und Karen bei der Großmutter in Atlanta gelebt, ohne den Einfluß der Marines. Doch Bull ist nach Revenge, South Carolina, versetzt worden - also zieht die Familie zum vierten Mal in vier Jahren um. Bull führt ein sehr hartes Regime in seiner Familie. Kinder von Marines, ist seine Meinung, müssen in allem die Besten sein, immer diszipliniert und haben sich vor allem seinem absoluten Gehorsamkeitsanspruch zu unterwerfen. Jedes der Kinder versucht damit auf seine Weise fertig zu werden. Ben, der Älteste, bemüht sich meist, einfach nicht anzuecken - und ist trotzdem vom Wunsch beseelt, den Vater irgendwann mal zu besiegen. Er ist es auch, der die Fäuste am ehesten zu spüren bekommt. Mary-Anne leidet schwer darunter, nicht die unglaubliche Südstaaten-Schönheit der Mutter geerbt zu haben. Ihre Waffe gegen den Despoten ist ihr loses Mundwerk.

Bastei Lübbe 894 Seiten ISBN: DM 16,9 Ersch. 1995 unter dem Titel "Beach Music" Deutsch 1995 von Edda Petri Ein Jahr nachdem Jacks Frau Shyla Selbstmord begangen hatte, zieht er mit der kleinen Tochter Shyla nach Italien, um ein neues Leben zu beginnen. Und auch, um seine Tochter von den amerikanischen Südstaaten fernzuhalten, von seiner großen und chaotischen Familie - und von den Shylas Eltern, die ihm die Tochter wegnehmen wollten. Shylas Eltern hatten den Holocaust überlebt. Doch der Schrecken der Verfolgung, die Erinnerung an all die Greueltaten haben sie niemals losgelassen. Die Geschichten, die Shyla in ihrer Kindheit zu hören bekam, haben sich ihr tief eingebrannt - zu tief, bis sie eines Tages keinen Ausweg mehr sah. Auch wenn Jack seine Tochter dem direkten Einfluß seiner alten Heimat entzogen hat - die Geschichten, die er ihr aus seiner Vergangenheit erzählt, bewirken das Gegenteil.

He was the first of seven children. Since the family had to move many times to different military bases around the South, Pat changed schools frequently, finally attending the Citadel Military Academy in Charleston, South Carolina, upon his father's insistence. While still a student, he wrote and then published his first book, The Boo, a tribute to a beloved teacher. After graduation, Conroy taught English in Beaufort, where he met and married a young woman with two children, a widow of the Vietnam War. He then accepted a job teaching underprivileged children in a one-room schoolhouse on Daufuskie Island, a remote island off the South Carolina shore. After a year, Pat was fired for his unconventional teaching practicessuch as his unwillingness to allow corporal punishment of his studentsand for his general lack of respect for the school's administration. Conroy evened the score when he exposed the racism and appalling conditions his students endured with publication of The Water is Wide in 1972. The book won Conroy a humanitarian award from the National Education Association and was made into the feature film

More information about Pat Conroy at Interview with Pat Conroy from The Book Report on America Online Bookpg JK: Good evening, we are delighted to have Mr. Conroy with us. I would like the first question or two. Pat, your books are all amazingly long - Beach Music is 800 pages in paper - and they are amazingly emotional. What is like to write them? PatConroy: It is a piece of cake. They take a long time. My prose is overwrought, a little pretentious. I never know how a book will end. I start and then there is an accretion, like a coral reef. Bookpg JK: I'm told 300 pages were cut out of PRINCE OF TIDES. PatConroy: I think more. And 500-600 cut out of BEACH MUSIC. Bookpg JK: Do you miss those words? PatConroy: I don't. Once I finish editing, I can never go back and read them again. I can't say I miss them. I remember certain parts of them. Bookpg JK: Emotionally, what is it like to do the Holocaust, say, just as PART of a book? BEACH MUSIC has every intense emotion available on the planet! PatConroy: I do emotions well. It's good stuff. I like a book to be a world full of different personalities.
