Story
Staring at the Sun charts the life of Jean Serjeant, from her beginning as a naive, carefree country girl before the war through to her wry and trenchant old age in the year 2020. We follow her bruising experience in marriage, her probing of male truths, and her adventures in motherhood and in China, and we cannot fail to be moved by the questions she asks of life and the often unsatisfactory answers it provides.

Story
The brilliant new collection of short stories from Man Booker Prize-winning author Julian Barnes. The stories in Julian Barnes’ long-awaited third collection are attuned to rhythms and currents: of the body, of love and sex, illness and death, connections and conversations. Each character is bent to a pulse, propelled on by success and loss, by new beginnings and endings.

Story
Julian Barnes lernte Dr. Samuel Pozzi (1846-1918) kennen, als er das Porträt Mann im roten Rock von John Sargent Singer betrachtete. Es zeigt den Arztpionier, Freigeist und intellektuellen Wissenschaftler, der seiner Zeit weit voraus war. Kenntnisreich und elegant beschreibt Julian Barnes das schillernde Leben Dr. Pozzis und entwirft das Bild einer Ära, die wir heute Belle Epoque nennen und die neben Schönheit und Glamour auch ihre hässlichen Seiten hatte.

Story
Den nittenårige Paul møder Susan Macleod en sommer i 60’erne, da han er hjemme fra universitetet for at besøge sin familie. Susan er otteogfyrre, selvsikker, ironisk og en gift mor til to næsten voksne døtre. Snart - og tilsyneladende uundgåeligt - bliver Paul og Susan elskere. Senere flytter de sammen til London for at slippe væk fra Pauls forældre og Susans voldelige mand. Årtier senere er Susan død, og Paul ser nu tilbage på deres liv sammen. Han husker forelskelsen, hvordan han befriede hende fra et dødt ægteskab, og hvordan - gradvist og nådesløst - det hele faldt fra hinanden.

Story
Der sowjetische Starkomponist Dmitri Dmitrijewitsch Schostakowitsch gehört zu den renommiertesten Komponisten seines Landes, als Stalin eines Abends der Aufführung einer seiner Opern beiwohnt und schon in der Pause den Saal verlässt. Schostakowitsch wartet ab diesem Abend Nacht für Nacht angezogen, auf seinen gepackten Koffern sitzend neben dem Aufzug seiner Wohnung, dass er verhaftet wird. Doch niemand kommt. Stattdessen feiert er Erfolge mit seiner Fünften Symphonie und wird wieder Liebling der Massen. Aber nun muss er sich ungewollter Privilegien erwehren, die mit der Vereinnahmung durch die Partei einhergehen.

Story
Julian Barnes var sammen med sin hustru i tredive år. Han var toogtredive, da de mødte hinanden, toogtres, da hun døde. "Mit livs hjerte; mit hjertes liv", skriver han i denne bevaegende, dybt personlige beretning om kaerlighed, sorg og tab. Et sjaeldent funklende dokument over det, som ikke kan siges med ord. Men Barnes starter et helt andet sted, nemlig i Frankrig i 1858, hvor fotografen Nadar stiger op i en luftballon og lader sig haeve over jorden. Deroppe tager han de første billeder fra himlen.

Story
Julian Barnes' neues Hörbuch handelt von Ballonfahrt, Fotografie, Liebe und Verlust. Davon, dass man zwei Menschen oder zwei Dinge verbindet und sie wieder auseinanderreißt. Wir lernen Nadar kennen, Pionier der Ballonfahrt und einer der ersten Fotografen, die Luftaufnahmen machten, sowie Colonel Fred Burnaby, der zum eigenwilligen Bewunderer der extravaganten Schauspielerin Sarah Bernhardt wird. Und wir hören von Julian Barnes' eigene Trauer über den Tod seiner Frau - schonungslos offen, präzise und tief berührend.

Story
Tony Webster og hans klike var tre. Adrian Finn blev den fjerde. Skolen var en ren drengeskole. Sultne efter sex og bøger styrede de gennem gymnasietiden sammen udvekslede følelser jokes sladder og viden. Måske var Adrian mere seriøs end de andre; han var helt sikkert klogere. Men de fire lovede hinanden venskab for livet og skiltes. Studierne kalder. Tony bliver kæreste med Veronica. Vi er i tresserne. Den seksuelle revolution har ingen rigtig oplevet. Som Tony konstaterer: De fleste mennesker oplevede først tresserne i halvfjerdserne.

Papegøjen i denne romans titel er en udstoppet fugl som den store franske forfatter Gustave Flaubert havde stående foran sig på sit skrivebord da han i 1870 erne skrev historien om en gammel tjenestepige. Hun lod sin højt elskede papegøje udstoppe da den var død og endte med at tro at den var Helligånden. Denne fugl spiller en afgørende rolle for romanens hovedperson. Geoffrey Braithwaite er pensioneret læge med et livsprojekt: Han vil vide alt om den store franske forfatter Gustave Flauberts liv.

Story
Året er 1936. Komponisten Dmitrij Sjostakovitj er 30 år. Han har valgt at blive i Sovjetunionen, men frygter i stigende grad for sit liv. Stalin er nemlig begyndt at interessere sig for den unge komponists værker og har udtalt sig kritisk om hans seneste opera. Sjostakovitj er overbevist om, at han vil blive sendt til Sibirien eller simpelthen skudt på stedet. Han må overveje, hvad hans muligheder er, men i stedet begynder hans egen historie at melde sig i tankerne: Hans forældre, forskellige kvinder, hans hustru, hans datter - de er nu alle i fare sammen med ham.

Die erste Liebe hat lebenslange Konsequenzen, aber davon hat Paul im Alter von neunzehn keine Ahnung. Mit neunzehn ist er stolz, dass seine Liebe zur verheirateten, fast dreißig Jahre älteren Susan die gesellschaftlichen Konventionen sprengt. Er ist sich ganz sicher, in Susan die Frau fürs Leben gefunden zu haben, alles andere ist nebensächlich. Erst mit zunehmendem Alter wird Paul klar, dass die Anforderungen, die die Liebe an ihn stellt, größer sind, als er es jemals für möglich gehalten hätte.

Un despliegue de gran audacia técnica y elegante virtuosismo, al servicio de una amenísima trama en la que se alterna la ficción con hechos reales muy imaginativamente ordenados. Un libro que ha tenido un extraordinario éxito, tanto en Inglaterra como en Estados Unidos, y no sólo de crítica, sino también de ventas, lo cual resulta algo insólito teniendo en cuenta su carácter descaradamente literario.
