Libro Prima edizione
Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Condizione: Gut. Deutsche Erstausgabe. 342 (10) Seiten. 19 cm. Umschlaggestaltung: Barbara Hanke. Sehr guter Zustand. Seiten papierbedingt leicht gebräunt. Der Brite Morgan ist Botschaftssekretär Ihrer Majestät im westafrikanischen Kinjanja, allerdings nicht gerade ein diplomatisches Naturtalent: Hoffnungslos verfängt er sich in den Fallstricken der korrupten Lokalpolitik, und die zarte Romanze mit Priscilla, der Tochter seines Chefs, endet, bevor sie angefangen hat. Als dann noch eine Leiche auftaucht, die er partout nicht mehr loswird, muss morgen endgültig einsehen, dass in Afrika nichts so läuft, wie er geglaubt hatte . - William Boyd, CBE (* 7. März 1952 in Accra, Ghana) ist ein schottischer Schriftsteller, Drehbuchautor und Regisseur. Leben und Werk: Der Sohn schottischer Eltern verbrachte seine frühe Kindheit in Ghana und ging im Alter von 9 bis 17 Jahren auf die Gordonstoun Privatschule in Moray/Schottland. Er verbrachte die Sommerferien regelmäßig in Afrika, unter anderem auch in Nigeria während des Biafrakrieges, der einen nachhaltigen Eindruck auf ihn machte, wie er Jahre später in einem Interview betonte.[1] Im Anschluss studierte er Französisch in Nizza, Philosophie und Englisch an der Universität Glasgow und am Jesus College in Oxford, wo er mit einer Arbeit über Shelley promoviert wurde. Von 1980 bis 1983 arbeitete er als Dozent für zeitgenössische Literatur am St.-Hilda-College in Oxford. In dieser Zeit veröffentlichte er seinen ersten Roman A Good Man in Africa (1981), für den er 1983 vom Granta Magazine und dem Book Marketing Council zu einem der 20 besten jungen britischen Erzähler gewählt wurde. Seither hat Boyd viele Romane, Erzählungen und Drehbücher für Film und Fernsehen geschrieben, von denen einige der früheren das Leben britischer Diplomaten in Afrika oder die Schulzeit an einer Boarding School, die späteren dann hauptsächlich die Frage nach Identität in der modernen Gesellschaft zum Thema haben. 2005 wurde Boyd zum Commander of the British Empire (CBE) ernannt. Im September 2013 wurde der von Boyd verfasste offizielle James-Bond-Roman Solo bei Jonathan Cape, dem Verlag von Bond-Erfinder Ian Fleming, veröffentlicht. Er lebt mit seiner Frau Susan, einer Redakteurin der Zeitschrift Harper s Bazaar, abwechselnd in London und im Bergerac, wo Boyd auch Wein anbaut. . Aus: wikipedia-William_Boyd. -- .Themen und Motive Unser Mann in Afrika ist eine beißend ironische Satire sowohl auf die Konfrontation verschiedener Kulturen als auch auf die Verhältnisse in den jungen afrikanischen Staaten nach dem Ende des Kolonialismus. Boyd bezieht sich dabei zweifelsohne auf seine eigenen Erlebnisse als Kind und Jugendlicher in Afrika, wie er sie 1998 in dem autobiografischen Essayband Protobiography geschildert hat. Der Roman konfrontiert auf spielerische Weise auch das alte Afrikabild europäischer Diplomaten, die darin nichts weiter sehen als die untere Sprosse einer Karriereleiter, mit dem neuen Afrika eines von Entwicklungsschwierigkeiten, Armut und Korruption geplagten Kontinents. Nicht unwesentlich zum ironischen Ton des Romans trägt Boyds freizügig-schmunzelnder Umgang mit Erotik und Sex bei, denn im Spannungsfeld aus Hitze, Untätigkeit und Überdruss hat das Leben in Afrika . zwei Pluspunkte . : Bier und Sex", so dass Boyds Protagonist zum einen ständig mit einem Kater herumläuft und zum anderen wieder und wieder in merkwürdige erotische Situationen gerät. . . .
