hardcover. Condición: Wie neu. Gebraucht - Wie neu Ungelesen, vollständig, sehr guter Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -Sita wächst in den fünfziger Jahren in Suriname auf. Irgendwo zwischen Großstadt und Dschungel lebt sie nach dem Tod ihrer Mutter mit einem autoritären Vater und einem schweigsamen Bruder zusammen. Das Schweigen im Haus drückt sie nieder ebenso wie das Geheimnis, das ihre Eltern und Großeltern umgibt. Warum hat der Großvater die Familie verlassen und ist nach Indien zurückgegangen, warum ließ man ihre Mutter danach von einer gewalttätigen Frau adoptieren Sita konzentriert sich auf die Schule, will mit der hinduistischen Tradition ihrer Familie nichts zu tun haben und ist auf der Suche nach einer eigenen, selbstbestimmten Zukunft. Die wird ihr verbaut, als sie schwanger wird und heiraten muss. Und sie steht vor derselben Frage, die sich ihrem Großvater gestellt hat: Ich oder die Familie 160 pp. Deutsch.…

Paperback. Condición: Fine. pp. 157 Dutch Tussen 1969 en 1973 publiceerde de in Suriname geboren schrijfster Bea Vianen vier romans. Na ?Sarnami, hai?, ?Strafhok? en ?Ik eet, ik eet tot ik niet meer kan? is *Het paradijs van Oranje* daarvan de laatste. Net als haar eerdere romans gaat ook *Het paradijs van Oranje* over wat de schrijfster zelf het ?ophangen van de vuile was? genoemd heeft.

De ik-figuur, een mannelijke auteur van Surinaams-hindostaanse origine, laat ons achter de schermen van het schijngeluk kijken, schrijvend en piekerend over vriendschap, familierelaties, woonomstandigheden, tolerantie en eerlijkheid, maar vooral over het zoeken naar zichzelf in een vreemde omgeving. «Inderdaad krijgt de lezer daarbij aardig wat ?vuile was? te verwerken, zowel de Surinaamse lezer als die uit het ?paradijs van Oranje? Hopelijk doen beiden er hun voordeel mee.» (Aldert Walrecht).…
