The moving, powerful and urgent English-language debut from one of the brightest young stars in world literatureSuppose you and Pa were gone, and we were lost. What would happen then?A family in New York packs the car and sets out on a road trip. A mother, a father, a boy and a girl, they head south west, to the Apacheria, the regions of the US which used to be Mexico. They drive for hours through desert and mountains. They stop at diners when they’re hungry and sleep in motels when it gets dark. The little girl tells surreal knock knock jokes and makes them all laugh. The little boy educates them all and corrects them when they’re wrong. The mother and the father are barely speaking to each other.Meanwhile, thousands of children are journeying north, travelling to the US border from Central America and Mexico. A grandmother or aunt has packed a backpack for them, putting in a bible, one toy, some clean underwear. They have been met by a coyote: a man who speaks to them roughly and frightens them. They cross a river on rubber tubing and walk for days, saving whatever food and water they can. Then they climb to the top of a train and travel precariously in the open container on top. Not all of them will make it to the border.In a breath-taking feat of literary virtuosity, Lost Children Archive intertwines these two journeys to create a masterful novel full of echoes and reflections – a moving, powerful, urgent story about what it is to be human in an inhuman world.

Told with intimacy and ferocity and set in the passionate and crumbling Spanish Quarter of Naples, comes a poignant tale of first love – of a place, of a person – where languages and cultures collide while dreams soar and crash in spectacular ways. ‘Don’t forgive me, don’t answer, don’t be sad. Be happy, have babies, make mixed tapes, take pictures … it’s how I always love to think of you. And now and then, if you can and if you want to, remember me. ’ Several years after leaving Naples, Heddi receives an email from Pietro, her first love, admitting that he was wrong. Immediately, Heddi is transported back to her college days in that heartbreakingly beautiful city built on ruins and set against the cliffs of a sleeping volcano. Just the thought of the Spanish Quarter, the crumbling apartment she shared with friends and where she first met Pietro, still spark the pain of longing and a desire to belong. For Heddi’s tribe of university friends, Naples was the first taste of freedom and an escape from their familial obligations. But for Heddi it is the place where she searched for the roots she never had, while Pietro tried to escape his. For all of them Naples is a place that they’ll never forget: the setting of their unrestrained youth.

»Lufthunde«: In Kafkas »Forschungen eines Hundes« sind das die r?tselhaften Wesen, die, je f?r sich und geschieden von den anderen ihres Geschlechts, hoch oben durch die L?fte treiben und ihrer T?tigkeit nachgehen. Was sie genau tun, ist schwer festzustellen, aber jeder kann ihnen zusehen, wie sie im ?ther segeln. »Lufthunde« hei?t dieses Buch, weil es die Geschichte der deutschen literarischen Moderne in einer Reihe von Einzelportr?ts erz?hlt. Wichtiger als ihr Zusammenhang und wichtiger auch als das einzelne Werk ist die Gestalt des Autors, wie sie aus seinen Schriften hervortritt. Den Anfang macht Kafka mit seinen Tierparabeln; und es folgen so verschiedene Temperamente wie Musil, Rilke, Morgenstern, Gottfried Benn, auch Wilhelm Busch, unter den Frauen Irmgard Keun und Gertrud Kolmar. »Nein, wirklich, wir haben es mit einem gro?en Autor zu tun«, schrieb Michael Maar in der FAZ und bescheinigte dem Autor bei dessen letztem Buch, dass er sich nunmehr »endg?ltig in der Thronreihe der deutschsprachigen Essayisten niederlassen kann«.

In September 2000, a young programmer comes home from a festival in the Nevada desert and learns that his grandfather has died, and that he has to return to Thebes, a town which is so isolated that its inhabitants have their own language, in order to clean out the house where his family lived for five generations. While he’s there, he runs into Yesim, a Turkish American woman whom he loved as a child, and begins a romance in which past and present are dangerously confused. At the same time, he remembers San Francisco in the wild years of the Internet boom, and mourns the loss of Swan, a madman who may have been the only person to understand what was happening to the city, and to the world.Nearly ten years in the making, La Farge’s ambitious new work considers large worlds and small ones, love, memory, family, flying machines, dance music, and the end of the world.

Welchen Sinn hat Dein Leben? Von Natur aus hat mein Leben ?berhaupt keinen »Sinn«. Mein Leben hat ausschlie?lich den »Sinn«, den ich ihm selbst gebe. – Wie lautet der oberste Grundsatz Deiner Lebensf?hrung? Ausgehend von dem mir innewohnenden Selbsterhaltungstrieb ist mir mein leben mein allerh?chstes Gut. Ich stelle mir vor, dass das im Grunde bei allen anderen Menschen auch so ist. Wenn ich mein Leben gesch?tzt wissen will wie jeder andere Mensch auch, dann muss ich auch das Leben jedes anderen Menschen sch?tzen wie mein eigenes. So sch?tzen, achten und bewahren wir uns gegenseitig unser h?chstes Gut – unser Leben. – Gibt es ein Leben nach dem Tode? Nach meinem Leben zerfalle ich normalerweise in meine kleinsten Bausteine und Knochen. Tot ist tot, das Gegenteil von lebend. K?rperlich lebe ich nur in meinen Kindern, Kindeskindern usw. fort und geistig in der Erinnerung anderer Menschen und in dem, was ich geschaffen und wie ich gelebt habe. – Was geschieht, wenn Du gestorben bist, mit Deiner »Seele«? Zun?chst eine Gegenfrage: Was verstehst Du unter »Seele«? Fr?her glaubten die Menschen, die »Seele« sei etwas Eigenartiges, ja sogar etwas K?rperliches, etwas, was den K?rper beim ?bergang vom lebenden in den toten Zustand verl?sst. Ich verstehe unter »Seele« den Funktionszustand des gr??ten Teiles des Gehirns und des ?brigen Nervensystems samt aller dazu geh?renden Botenstoffe und Hormone, also unseres gesamten »Neuro-humoralen Systems«. Mit dem Ende meines lebenden Zustandes erlischt auch die gesamte Funktion meine Neuro-humoralen Systems und damit auch zwangsl?ufig meine »Seele«. – Was ist »Gl?ck«? Ich empfinde »Gl?ck«, wenn sich meine Seele, also mein Neuro-humorales System, in einem Zustand vollkommener Ausgeglichenheit befindet, ich diesen Zustand bewusst wahrnehme und gleichzeitig als wohltuend empfinde. – Und was ist »Liebe«? Unter »Liebe« verstehe ich das Zusammenwirken von Sexualtrieb plus Sozialtrieb plus ›Werttrieb‹ (gegenseitige Achtung der W?rde und des ›Wertes‹ des anderen). – Gibt es G?tter? Bis zum heutigen Tage gibt es G?tter ausschlie?lich, einzig und allein nur in der Fantasie der Menschen. – Was ist des Reichtums Ma?? … Ausf?hrliche Antworten auf die hier gestellten und einige weitere Fragen finden sich in dem Buch von Hajo Achim.

Ja, es stimmt, ich mag M?cken nicht! Da ich diese kleinen Plagegeister jedoch nicht wegdiskutieren kann, will ich mit deren Ruf, sagen wir, etwas spielen. Und … es bereitete mir einen H?llenspa?! Es erwartet Sie ein Mix humorvoller, nachdenklicher, erotischer, provozierender, philosophischer und assoziativer Gedanken, rund um die M?cken. Mit der Recherche schloss ich zwar keinen M?cken-Frieden, jedoch gestalte ich mir seitdem den Umgang mit M?cken humorvoll ertr?glicher. Vielleicht klappt es ja auch bei Ihnen. Malerei und Zeichnerei sind f?r mich Leidenschaft und Berufung zugleich! Ich liebe es den Dingen auf den Grund zu gehen, entlocke ihnen andere, weitere Bedeutungen und Hintergr?nde, mit einem Augenzwinkern, stets mit Absicht. Nun w?nsche ich Ihnen viel Spa? beim Durchst?bern. (Joachim R. Niggemeyer)
