Rezensionen

Die Erfindung des Eskapisten, einer Superheldenfigur aus dem Geist der Verschmelzung von alter und neuer Welt, wird spannend von Prag nach New York in den 1930er Jahren nachgezeichnet. In den Nebenrollen: Houdini, Hitler und Dali. Ein toller Schmöker, der viel Spass macht und die Faszination für eine Zeit weckt, in der sich die Comics als neue Populärkultur gegen viele Widerstände und Ideologien behaupteten. beng! 02/2022

Sprachlich sehr schön. Vor allem die Stellen, an denen das Geschehen sehr distanziert dargestellt wird, sind sehr witzig.

Ein Roman zum Niederknien. Mein Lieblingsbuch. Ein Roman, der zu Beginn des digitalen Zeitalters spielt, in Oakland, der schwarz geprägten Stadt in der kalifornischen Bay Area. Das Analoge überlebt hier nur mehr in kultigen Biosphärenreservaten. Herrlich die Beschreibung des Plattenladens von Nat Jaffe (weiß) und Archy Stallings (schwarz) in ihrer Kirche des Venyls, einer symbolpolitisch wahren Festung!

Geschichte von zwei Freunden und deren Partnerinnen, Dreh- und Angelpunkt ist der Plattenladen, welche die beiden an der Telegraph Avenue betreiben. Die Geschichte ist komplex, spannend und anschaulich geschrieben. Soul, Jazz und Funk, Black Culture und Blaxploitation, Gentrifikation des Quartiers und die verschiedenen Intressenvertreter, Alternativmedizin, das Zusammenleben von Schwarzen und Weissen, Vinylkultur.
