Barbara Gowdy
BIO
Barbara Gowdy's work, THE WHITE BONE, is being praised for its "audacious concept, inspired characterization and poignant message." It is the story of Mud, a young African elephant cow, whose courage and visionary powers guide her and her kin to a safe place away from the ivory poachers. Gowdy witnessed the real-life quest for survival on which this story is based, traveling to Kenya to study elephant behavior. Once again Gowdy draws readers into a strange fictional world, animating it with her convincing narrative and poetic vision of life. Her previous book, MISTER SANDMAN, was Margaret Atwood's Book of the Year choice for the Times Literary Supplement, and it was also a Village Voice choice for Favorite Book of the Year. The film Kissed was inspired by a short story from her collection WE SO SELDOM LOOK ON LOVE. INTERVIEW June 23, 2000

Mister Sandman :a novel
by Barbara Gowdy
Review from Kirkus Reviews, 02/15/1997:
"Absurd hilarity is mixed well here with a persistent, gentle probing of family dynamics, and crisply defined situations contribute a bell-like clarity to this affecting and unusual domestic saga as it unfolds." Review from New York Review of Books, 04/10/1997: "...Barbara Gowdy's comic sense is both inventive and tough. But the comedy is dark, rooted in sad, alarming secrets and mysteries." Thomas R. Edwards Review from New York Times Book Review, 05/11/1997: "[A] delightfully quirky novel, in which the Canary family's life emerges as a weird yet often affecting group composition." Allen Lincoln Review from Voice Literary Supplement, spring 1997:

  • Jane Urquhart Barbara Gowdy was born in Windsor in 1950 but grew up in the Toronto suburb of Don Mills, having moved there with her family in 1954. After graduating from high school in the late 1960s, she studied at York University and the Royal Conservatory of Music. Before deciding to become a full-time writer in the early 1980s, Gowdy pursued several other career paths including musical theatre, the securities industry, and being an editor for the publisher Lester and Orpen Dennys. Since devoting herself to her writing, she has, from time to time, taught creative writing at Ryerson and the University of Toronto and has worked as an interviewer for the TVOntario program, Imprint. Though she has earned an international reputation for her uncanny ability to characters who are abnormal to the extreme while at the same time presenting them in a sympathetic and moving manner, her first novel was actually quite conventional. Published in 1988, Through the Green Valley is a historical novel that follows the struggle of an Irish peasant family who eventually move to America to escape the war and famine in their own country. It was not until the publication of

    Barbara Gowdy møtte leserne
    En av Barbara Gowdys noveller ble til nekrofili-filmen «Kissed». Nå er den kanadiske forfatteren tilbake med roman om elefanter. Les hva hun svarte våre lesere!
    Av INGRID SANDE LARSEN

    ELEFANTER GLEMMER ALDRI: Ifølge Barbara Gowdy har de også en rik salmeskatt. Foto: JAN TYSTAD
    TIL NETTMØTE: Barbara Gowdy svarer på spørsmål fra kl 1300 onsdag 15. mars. Send inn ditt spørsmål nederst på siden! Nok en gang har Barbara Gowdy kommet med en bok som vil bli mye omtalt, og John Irving er blant dem som har lovprist boka. I «Det hvite beinet» ser leseren alt fra elefantenes synsvinkel, først og fremst gjennom hovedpersonen/-elefanten Mold. Hun blir forlatt av familien sin ved fødselen mens hun ligger fastklemt under sin døende mor. Les utdrag! Elefant-salmer Gowdys beretninger om elefantene bygger på faktiske kunnskaper om dyrenes levesett. I boka har elefantene sin egen religion med salmesang, og hvert enkelt dyr har personlige egenskaper. Felles for elefantene er at de er følsomme, gråter mye og setter familiestrukturen høyt. Nekrofili-film Barbara Gowdy er kjent for svart og besk humor. Av hennes tidligere bøker er «Mister Sandman» og «Fallende engler» utgitt på norsk. Begge har vært hovedbøker i Bokklubben Dagens Bøker. I tillegg har den kontroversielle novellesamlingen «We so seldom look on love» fått tittelnovellen filmatisert. «Kissed» handler om en kvinne som har seksuell omgang med døde mennesker, og skapte voldsomt oppstyr da den ble sluppet i 1997.

    Der weiße Knochen

    Roman
    Verlag Kunstmann
    ISBN 3-88897-219-1
    DM 39,80 Wilfried F. Schoeller;:
    Kennen Sie Matsch, Dattelbett und Langschatten? Nein? – Das sind drei Elefanten als Erzähler. Die Kanadierin Barbara Gowdy hat einen Roman aus der Perspektive von Elefanten geschrieben. Alles, was sie tun, und wie sie sich verhalten, beruht auf Beobachtungen der Tiere, alles, was sie fühlen und denken, ist ihnen zugeschrieben worden. Und so ziehen sie durch die Savannen, mustern die Welt, die mit schrecklichen Wesen, Menschen genannt, bevölkert ist.
    Der Roman „Der weiße Knochen“ ist ein bizarres Buch, eine Art verkehrter Zivilisationsbeschreibung. Die Gefahr ist groß, daß aus dieser Vermenschlichung von Viechern eine grauenhafte Tierschnulze herauskommt.
    Dieser Versuchung ist Barbara Gowdy, die es in ihren übrigen Büchern ja ebenfalls mit exzentrischen Figuren hält, geradezu majestätisch entronnen. Was mir an diesem Buch weniger gut gefällt, ist ein magisches Brimborium, ein Abrakadabra vom weißen Knochen und dem Paradies als sicherem Ort.
