An unforgettable, inventive, and riveting epic saga with the literary force and evocative imagination of Station Eleven, Zone One, and The Road, that signals the arrival of an extraordinary new talent.
A little more than a century from now, the world has been utterly transformed. After years of slowly overtaking the continent, starting with the great coastal cities, rising floodwaters have left America an archipelago of mountaintop colonies surrounded by a deep expanse of open water. Civilization as it once was is gone. Bands of pirates roam the waters, in search of goods and women to breed. Some join together to create a new kind of society, while others sail alone, barely surviving.
Stubbornly independent Myra and her precocious and feisty eight-year-old daughter, Pearl, fish from their small boat, the Bird, visiting small hamlets and towns on dry land only to trade for supplies and information. Just before Pearl's birth, when the monstrous deluge overtook their home in Nebraska, Maya's oldest daughter, Row, was stolen by her father.
For eight years Myra has searched for the girl that she knows, in her bones and her heart, still lives. In a violent confrontation with a stranger, Myra discovers that Row was last seen in a far-off encampment of raiders on the coast of what used to be Greenland. Throwing aside her usual caution, she and Pearl embark on a perilous voyage into the icy northern seas to rescue the girl, now thirteen.
On the journey, Myra and Pearl join forces with a larger ship, a band of Americans like them. In a desperate act of deceit and manipulation, Myra convinces the crew to sail north. Though she hides her true motivations, Myra finds herself bonding with her fellow seekers, men, women, and children who hope to build a safe haven together in this dangerous new world.
But secrets, lust, and betrayals threaten to capsize their dream, and after their fortunes take a shocking-and bloody-turn, Myra can no longer ignore the question of whether saving Row is worth endangering Pearl and her fellow travelers.
A compulsively readable novel of dark despair and soaring hope, After the Flood is a magnificent, action-packed, and sometimes frightening odyssey laced with wonder-an affecting and wholly original saga both redemptive and astonishing.

An inventive and riveting epic saga, After the Flood signals the arrival of an extraordinary new talent.
A little more than a century from now, our world has been utterly transformed. After years of slowly overtaking the continent, rising floodwaters have obliterated America's great coastal cities and then its heartland, leaving nothing but an archipelago of mountaintop colonies surrounded by a deep expanse of open water.
Stubbornly independent Myra and her precocious seven-year-old daughter, Pearl, fish from their small boat, the Bird, visiting dry land only to trade for supplies and information in the few remaining outposts of civilization. For seven years, Myra has grieved the loss of her oldest daughter, Row, who was stolen by her father after a monstrous deluge overtook their home in Nebraska. Then, in a violent confrontation with a stranger, Myra suddenly discovers that Row was last seen in a far-off encampment near the Artic Circle. Throwing aside her usual caution, Myra and Pearl embark on a perilous voyage into the icy northern seas, hoping against hope that Row will still be there.
On their journey, Myra and Pearl join forces with a larger ship and Myra finds herself bonding with her fellow seekers who hope to build a safe haven together in this dangerous new world. But secrets, lust, and betrayals threaten their dream, and after their fortunes take a shocking--and bloody--turn, Myra can no longer ignore the question of whether saving Row is worth endangering Pearl and her fellow travelers.

Описание: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2004 im Fachbereich Germanistik - Neuere Deutsche Literatur, Note: 2,1, Johannes Gutenberg-Universit t Mainz, Veranstaltung: Verlagsgeschichte, 32 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Die drei Autoren Gy rgy (Georg) Luk cs, Anna Seghers und Christa Wolf haben sich bewusst f r den Sozialismus entschieden. Es liegt folglich nahe im Gebiet der Literaturwissenschaft auch nach ihren literarischen Bekenntnissen zu forschen, die sich mehr oder weniger streng nach der Vorgabe des "sozialistischen Realismus" richteten. In der vorliegenden Hausarbeit werden ihre Vorstellungen von Literatur und die literarische Umsetzung an den Beispielromanen "Das Siebte Kreuz" von Anna Seghers und Christa Wolfs "Kassandra" untersucht und mit den Literaturtheorien vom "sozialistischen Realismus" von Georg Luk cs verglichen. Der ungarische Literaturtheoretiker und Kulturphilosoph Georg Luk cs ver ffentlichte in den 30-er Jahren seine marxistisch gepr gte Literaturtheorie vorwiegend in Form wissenschaftlicher Arbeiten oder als Essays in Zeitungen. "Die Theorie des Romans" ist eines seiner bedeutendsten Werke. Er war Mitbegr nder des "Galilei-Vereins", eines sozialistischen Studentenklubs, in dem die Position der Intellektuellen im Klassenkampf der Arbeiter hinterfragt wurde. Luk cs beeinflusste die DDR-Literatur bis in die 50-er Jahre, danach galt er als veraltet. Bernhard Spies beschrieb diese Karriere als ein Weg "vom Papst zum Pr gelknaben"1: denn zun chst wurde er wegen seiner Literaturtheorien hoch gelobt und danach - ab Mitte 1950 - kritisch missachtet. Mit seiner Erbe-Theorie versuchte er Literatur zu bewerten: sie sollte sich nach Kriterien des gro en Realistischen Romans des 19. Jahrhunderts, mit Autoren wie Dostojevski, Thomas Mann und Balzac, richten, die er als "richtige" Kunst bezeichnete. Luk cs sthetik erhob den Anspruch auf eine Qualit tsbeurteilung von Literatur. Er bestimmte was "echte" Kunst sei: "was ich (auc
