LESELUST eigene Meinung schreiben Tim Parks - Schicksal Roman. Antje Kunstmann, 281 Seiten Ersch. 1999 unter dem Titel: "Destiny" Aus dem Englischen 2001 von Ulrike Becker Der Autor: Tim Parks, geboren 1954 in Manchester, gewann zahlreiche Literaturpreise, darunter den Somerset- Maugham- Award. Er lebt als Autor und Übersetzer (ua von Italo Calvino und Alberto Moravia) in Verona. Chris Burton lebt mit seiner Frau erst seit 3 Monaten wieder in England, als er an der Rezeption seines Hotels die Nachricht vom Selbstmord seines Sohnes erhält. Sein erster Gedanke ist, dass es nun keinen Grund mehr gibt, warum er und seine Frau ein Paar bleiben sollen, dass nun alles, was sie noch verbunden hatte, die Sorge um den psychisch kranken Sohn, entfällt. Sie reisen sofort nach Italien zurück. Während der Reise merkt Chris, wie sehr die Entfremdung zunimmt, dass er unfähig ist, ihr Trost bieten zu können, dass er auch unfähig ist, wirklich zu trauern. Zu viele Gedanken kreisen noch in seinem Kopf; seine Karriere, das Buchprojekt, dass jetzt beinahe abgeschlossen ist - nur ein Interview fehlt ihm noch; der Liebhaber seiner Frau, der ihm mit der Veröffentlichung eines Buches zuvorgekommen ist; der Familienkrieg, das bedrückende Schweigen zwischen seiner Frau und der Adoptivtochter - sie hatten nicht mehr daran geglaubt, auch selbst noch ein Kind bekommen zu können; und die Krankheit des Sohnes, der nun tot war, der sich plötzlich geweigert hatte, weiterhin italienisch mit der Mutter zu sprechen, der gewalttätig wurde, und dem nur die Entfernung zu seinen Eltern zu helfen schien.

Understanding Tim Parks Gillian Fenwick A comprehensive look at a multifaceted modern man of letters 5 x 7, 192 pages cloth, ISBN 1-57003-456-7, $34.95s Understanding Contemporary British Literature Matthew J. Bruccoli, series editor About the Book About the Author Order the Book ABOUT THE BOOK Described by the late poet and essayist Joseph Brodsky as "the best British author writing today," Tim Parks is as prolific a journalist, critic, and translator as he is a novelist. In Understanding Tim Parks, Gillian Fenwick explores Parks's body of work and maintains that Parks is the epitome of the modern man of letters. Loving Roger, Home Thoughts, and Family Planning Parks's writing crosses genres as well as international boundaries. Fenwick argues that Parks's Italian sojourn of the past twenty years has brought a richness to his work. Wanting no part of saccharine treatments of la dolce vita, Parks has in Italian Neighbours and An Italian Education Shear and Europa, which are set on the Continent and feature characters of several European nationalities, capture his enlarged European scope. From Parks's novels and nonfiction books to his translations and journalism, Fenwick reckons with Parks's full literary range and sheds light on the work of a versatile English writer whose international recognition is steadily growing.

He found the world dull and dusty. Death was the answer, suggested Siva. Living forever, people were bored. A time-limit would galvanize, give dignity. But in that case some way of replacing the population would have to be found. Brahma brought together a few trusted fellows and explained what was required. The pleasure took them by surprise. What was that for? To put a fresh shine on the world, they were told. Otherwise it might get dusty again... I'm always taken aback when people talk about the eroticism of food and drink, of sunbathing and massage. This is mere sensuality. Or avoiding the issue. No experience even remotely compares with true eros, with long and lavish love-making. It is perfectly understandable that people should imagine its having been tacked on to creation afterwards, so extravagant is the pleasure it brings, so far beyond what is necessary. Never does the world seem so freshly painted, so brightly enamelled, so new, for heaven's sake, as after the best sex. But, alas, depending on where you're up to in life, it may be full of new complications too. A lesser authority than Brahma's would have issued a health-warning. Over billiards and beer a friend is explaining why he is leaving his wife and two children. He's playing with unusual speed and precision. His eyes are brighter than the beer could account for. 'And the girl is twenty-three,' he explains. French. So intelligent. 'Intelligently pert breasts?' I enquire, 'Perceptively warm thighs?' He laughs. He is deliriously proud, confused, unhappy. 'I feel I was never really in love with my wife,' he says.

library WHAT'S NEW LIBRARY FEATURES REVIEWS ... library : Rancour by Tim Parks Rancour An essay by Tim Parks Related Links Author Home Page Merchandise Links UK Edition What the gods most required of man was recognition. But it wasn't enough to extort this with divine manifestations. Already the first to assume human forms, the Olympians complicated matters by appearing as beggars, or strangers: Zeus at the court of Lycaon, Dionysus at the house of Icarius. Certainly it's a tough proposition to treat every panhandler as if he might be God. Clearly one was only a step away from the wearisome modern demand that one recognize the divinity in all men. In this respect it has to be granted that writers are more accommodating. Or you could say rather that they take fewer risks: they rarely turn up without a visiting card. So it was that the day I met V.S.Naipaul his books were everywhere in evidence. Unrecognized, the gods wreaked the most appalling revenge. But Naipaul had long gone beyond that. He had been awarded the Commonwealth Prize for Literature, hence was firmly placed in the Pantheon. At the conference, where he talked about his work, and then the celebratory lunch where we sat opposite each other, he expressed eloquent opinions on racism and evil authority, earnest comments on his native Trinidad. But what was most evident was how much he was revelling in the buzz of recognition, a god listening to the chatter of human worship. I found him entirely charming. And at the same time couldn't help remarking that in all the writers I have met there is this extraordinary gap between what their work appears to be about - impeccably commendable - and the driving impulse behind it, an unslakable thirst for recognition.

In an introduction to his new column in G2, he describes the birth of an obsession Monday February 5, 2001 The Guardian The team was formed almost a century ago in Verona's poshest school, the Liceo Classico Maffei. The game was still new to this part of the world. Preparing for their first match, the players didn't know what to call themselves. Then the Greek teacher, with an extraordinary sense of what football was to become - at least in Italy - suggested the name Hellas, the Greek word for patria , homeland, country. Your team becomes the expression of the community you belong to, the group that gives you your identity. And in Italy this homeland can only be local. "Did you watch the national team last night?" I ask a sports journalist. "No," he replies, and explains, "I'm a Brescia supporter."

Didier Jacob l’a interviewé dans un bistro parisien, pendant le match France-Uruguay qui annonçait la défaite des Bleus On s’attendait à le voir sortir tête baissée de son hôtel parisien, déboulant dans la rue comme un taureau fonçant vers la castagne. C’est que Tim Parks, écrivain anglais né à Manchester en terre de violence footballistique, a fréquenté le temps d’une saison d’assez grossiers individus, les supporters de la ville de Vérone, où il a élu domicile il y a plus de vingt-cinq ans. L’ascenseur, heureusement, s’ouvre sur une bonne nouvelle: marchant sans tituber, Tim Parks n’a pas le crâne rasé. Aujourd’hui 6 juin, la Coupe du Monde de football fait observer à la France, qui rencontre l’équipe uruguayenne, 90 minutes de silence à l’heure du déjeuner. Dans «Une saison de Vérone», Parks raconte, lui, les branlées successives d’un club à la ramasse qu’il a suivi pourtant dans tous ses déplacements, à Rome, Lecce, Naples ou Reggio di Calabria. D’en avoir tiré un livre lui a du moins permis de ne pas essuyer les foudres conjugales: «En effet, comment expliquer à ma femme que pendant neuf mois j’allais passer un dimanche sur deux loin de chez moi si ce n’est pour écrire quelque chose à ce sujet?» Auprès d’elle, il se justifie donc: «Ce sera un livre de voyages.»
