Produktinformationen "Räume des Lichts"

Das vergessene Meisterwerk einer großen japanischen Autorin Yuko Tsushima gewann in ihrer Heimat zahlreiche Preise, ihr Werk wurde in zwölf Sprachen übersetzt. Mit ¿ Räume des Lichts¿ wird sie nun endlich auch hierzulande wiederentdeckt. Der 1979 erstmals erschienene Roman ist ein zeitloses Meisterwerk über Liebe, Mutterschaft und den Kampf um die Kontrolle über das eigene Leben.
Es ist die einzige Wohnung, die sie finden kann: die letzte Etage eines Bürogebäudes mit lichtdurchfluteten Räumen. Nachdem ihr Mann sein Leben allein weiterführen und sie mit ihrer zweijährigen Tochter nicht in den Haushalt der Mutter zurückkehren will, zieht sie kurzerhand dort ein. Während sie ein Matratzenlager baut, wirft das Mädchen Spielzeuge aus dem Fenster. Während sie zu verhindern versucht, dass ein Netz vor den Fenstern angebracht wird, plagen ihre Tochter Albträume. Während sie ihr Kind in den Armen hält, wünscht sie sich, ebenfalls von jemandem in den Arm genommen zu werden. Immer wieder verliert sie die Bodenhaftung, wenn ihr Chef keine weiteren Krankheitstage zulässt, wenn ihr Noch-Ehemann von einer Scheidung nichts wissen will, wenn ihre Wut sie in die Bar treibt, während ihre Tochter in der Wohnung schläft. Aber dann sind da auch die Dachterrasse, die sich nach einem Wasserschaden in einen Pool verwandelt, das Volksfest mit Feuerwerk und Zuckerwatte, das Licht um sie herum - und der tiefe Wunsch, ihr Leben Stück für Stück neu zusammenzusetzen.

Wildcat Dome
Mitch and Yonko haven't spoken in a year. As children, they were inseparable, raised together in an orphanage outside Tokyo-but ever since the sudden death of Mitch's brother, they've been mourning in their private ways, worlds apart. In the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe, they choose to reunite, finding each other in a city undone by disaster.Mitch and Yonko have drifted apart, but they will always be bound together. Because long ago they witnessed an unspeakable tragedy, a tragedy that they've kept secret for their entire lives. They never speak of it, but it's all around them. Like history, it repeats itself.Yuko Tsushima's sweeping and consuming novel is a metaphysical saga of postwar Japan. Wildcat Dome is a hugely ambitious exploration of denial, of the ways in which countries and their citizens avoid telling the truth-a tale of guilt, loss, and inevitable reckoning.'Tsushima evades any label, her fiction transcends gender to focus on the existential loneliness that is at the heart of humanity.'
