Extractions: Barnaby Gaitlin wird bald dreißig. In den Augen seiner Familie ist er ein Loser - er, der alle Möglichkeiten gehabt hätte, dessen Eltern wohlhabend sind - er also arbeitet für einen Hungerlohn für eine Firma, die sich "Bizeps-Vermietungs-AG" nennt. Diese vermietet an ältere, gebrechliche Menschen die Muskeln junger Leute, die einkaufen, Möbel schleppen, Keller ausräumen und vieles andere. Daß ausgerechnet Barnaby die Schlüssel für fremde Wohnungen anvertraut werden, erfüllt ihn hin und wieder immer noch mit leisem Unbehagen. Er hat in seiner Jugend, gemeinsam mit Freunden, in die Häuser der Nachbarschaft eingebrochen. Während seine Freunde sich jedoch über die Spirituosen hergemacht haben, hatten es ihm hauptsächlich die privatesten Besitztümer angetan - Fotoalben, Briefe - das war seine Leidenschaft.

Anne Tyler: The Accidental Tourist
An excerpt from the novel by anne tyler.

Extractions: They watched the news, dutifully, and then they went out to the sun porch and sat at their grandparents' card table. They played something called Vaccination a card game they'd invented as children, which had grown so convoluted over the years that no one else had the patience to learn it. In fact, more than one outsider had accused them of altering the rules to suit the circumstances. "Now, just a minute," Sarah had said, back when she'd still had hopes of figuring it out. "I thought you said aces were high." "They are." "So that means" "But not when they're drawn from the deck." "Aha! Then why was the one that Rose drew counted high?" "Well, she did draw it after a deuce, Sarah." "Aces drawn after a deuce are high?" "No, aces drawn after a number that's been drawn two times in a row just before that." Sarah had folded her fan of cards and laid them face down the last of the wives to give up. Macon was in quarantine and had to donate all his cards to Rose. Rose moved her chair over next to his and played off his points while he sat back, scratching the cat behind her ears. Opposite him, in the tiny dark windowpanes, he saw their reflections hollow-eyed and severely cheekboned, more interesting versions of themselves.

Creative Quotations From Anne Tyler (1941-____)

Extractions: While armchair travelers dream of going places, traveling armchairs dream of staying put. It seems to me that since I've had children, I've grown richer and deeper. They may have slowed down my writing for a while, but when I did write, I had more of a self to speak from. My family can always tell when I'm well into a novel because the meals get very crummy. People always call it luck when you've acted more sensibly than they have.

Extractions: Anne Tyler understands the mystery of aging in her new novel By Jonelle Bonta A LL OF ANNE TYLER'S novels are set in the Baltimore area. None is punctuated by tragedies or disasters, and the action in each book moves with the ebb and flow of life, not the rush of melodrama. Each is full of gentle surprises, as quirky and individualistic as her characters. Tyler's main subject is deceptively simple: How screwball can a person be and still live a relatively normal life? Her newest novel, A Patchwork Planet , tells the story of Barnaby Gaitlin, the younger son of an old-money family (they even have their own foundation) who got in trouble as a teenager for breaking into homes, not to steal but to read people's mail and study family photo albums. Barnaby is divorced and has a 9-year-old daughter, Opal, but his ex-wife says that it would be better for Opal if Barnaby stopped his visits. He lives in a basement apartment and works for Rent-A-Back, a labor service for older people who can no longer do the heavy work necessary to keep their homes. Young, good-looking and making his way his own way, Barnaby is reasonably happy. But he faces the indifference of his father and the sharp disapproval of his mother while dealing with the pain of seeing his clients deteriorate and die and deciding what to do about Sophia, the very respectable lady with whom he becomes involved.

Review of the anne tyler novel by Laura Green.

Extractions: A train pulls out of Baltimore's Penn station. Boarding passengers include Barnaby, the scruffily dressed, estranged scion of the "old" Baltimore Gaitlins, and a prim, hair-netted young woman. Idly snooping, Barnaby sees this woman accept a mysterious package from a frantic stranger, who claims it is a passport forgotten by his daughter, awaiting its delivery in Philadelphia. On his way, reluctantly, to a rendezvous with his ex-wife and 9-year-old daughter, Barnaby spends the train ride futilely willing the prim woman to open the package, astonished at her ability to be "so well behaved even when she thought nobody was looking." He also waits, without much hope, for a visitation from the Gaitlin angel. It was such an angel a "big, tall woman with golden hair coiled in a braid on top of her head" who first suggested to Barnaby's great-grandfather the invention of the wooden dress-form that made the Gaitlins rich. We know that Barnaby will find his angel, though perhaps not where he first looks; we also know that his search will lead him through family crises and reconciliations. Indeed, the theme and action of "A Patchwork Planet," as in all of Tyler's novels, can be summed up in Barnaby's reflections on how "these family messes" are temporarily resolved: "The most unforgivable things got ... oh, not forgiven. Never forgiven. But swept beneath the rug, at least; brushed temporarily to one side; buried in a shallow grave."

Extractions: Die siebzehnjährige Evie Decker gehört nicht gerade zu den beliebtesten Schülerinnen an ihrer High-School. Sie ist dicklich, reizlos, versteht sich nicht zu kleiden. Wenn ihre Schulkolleginnen von Popstars, Filmen etc. erzählen, kann sie nie mitreden. Sie hat auch nur eine Freundin, Violet, die noch dicker ist als sie.

Extractions: Mrs. Emerson ist nicht wie andere Mütter, die, nachdem die Kinder aus dem Haus sind und der Ehemann gestorben ist, anfangen, sich gehenzulassen. Ganz im Gegenteil: schon morgens eine gepflegte, adrette Erscheinung, hat sie ihr Leben durchaus im Griff. Auch wenn sie nach unzähligen Jahren nun innerhalb kürzester Zeit sowohl ihr Hausmädchen als auch ihren Hausmeister rauswerfen musste.
