    Trying to Save Piggy Sneed contains a dozen short works by John Irving, beginning with three memoirs, including an account of Mr. Irving’s dinner with President Ronald Reagan at the White House. The longest of the memoirs, The Imaginary Girlfriend,” is the core of this collection. The middle section of the book is fiction. Since the publication of his first novel, Setting Free the Bears, in 1968, John Irving has written 12 more novels but only half a dozen stories that he considers finished”: they are all published here, including Interiors,” which won the O. Henry Award. In the third and final section are three essays of appreciation: one on Gnter Grass, two on Charles Dickens. To each of the 12 pieces, Mr. Irving has contributed his Author’s Notes. These notes provide some perspective on the circumstances surrounding the writing of each piece - for example, an election-year diary of the Bush-Clinton campaigns accompanies Mr. Irving’s memoir of his dinner with President Reagan; and the notes to one of his short stories explain that the story was presented and sold to Playboy as the work of a woman. Trying to Save Piggy Sneed is both as moving and as mischievous as readers would expect from the author of The World According to Garp, The Cider House Rules, A Prayer of Owen Meany, A Widow for One Year, and In One Person. And Mr. Irving’s concise autobiography, The Imaginary Girlfriend,” is both a work of the utmost literary accomplishment and a paradigm for living. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Barrett.

    Now available again, "A rich, wonderful, and diverse look at the creative mind of one of America's most imaginative and passionate novelists" (Denver Post). Here is a treat for John Irving fans and new readers alike. Trying to Save Piggy Sneed contains a dozen short works by the author, beginning with three memoirs. The longest of the memoirs is "The Imaginary Girlfriend," his candid account of his twin careers in writing and wrestling, which, as the Denver Post observed, is filled "with anecdotes that are every bit as hilarious as the antics in his novels . . . [and] combines the lessons of both obsessions." The middle portion of the book is fiction. Over a career that spans fourteen novels, these are the six stories that Mr. Irving considers finished. Among them is "Interior Space," for which he won the O. Henry Award. In the third and final section are three homages: one to Günter Grass and two to Charles Dickens. To each of the twelve pieces, he has contributed author's notes, which provide some perspective on the circumstances surrounding the writing of each piece. For readers who prefer a hardcover, this commemorative edition is a book to treasure. For readers new to the author of works as moving and mischievous as The World According to Garp, A Prayer for Owen Meany, and In One Person, Trying to Save Piggy Sneed is the perfect introduction. The edition has a foreword by Susan Cheever that was first published in the twentieth anniversary edition of the hardcover.

    Ein sensibles Bilderbuch zu einem der größten Themen des Lebens: Verlust, Trauer und neue Hoffnung.Eishas Mutter ist Keramikkünstlerin. In ihrem Atelier macht Eisha eine Form aus Ton. Diese Form macht Eisha ganz besonders glücklich, denn sie erinnert sie an den letzten Sommer, als sie mit ihrem Papa Zitronen gepflückt hat. Sie malt ihre kleine Form mit dem gleichen leuchtenden Gelb von Zitronen an. Als ihre Form zu Boden fällt und in viele Stücke zerbricht, ist Eisha sehr traurig. In kraftvollen Worten und Bildern zeigt Kenesha Sneed, wie Eisha lernt, mit dem Verlust und ihrer Trauer umzugehen, und wie tröstend es sein kann, aus den Scherben dessen, was vergangen ist, etwas Neues zu schaffen. Mit starken Farben und charaktervollen Linien zeigt Kenesha Sneed, dass in jedem und jeder von uns die Kraft zu Heilen und zu Schaffen steckt.Eine sensibles Bilderbuch-Debut der afro-amerikanischen Künstlerin Kenesha Sneed.Dieses Buch wird klimaneutral produziert.Ausstattung: durchgehend illustriert
