Notă biografică

Nick Hornby wurde am 17. April 1957 in Redhill geboren und ist ein britischer Schriftsteller und Drehbuchautor.

Hornby studierte Anglistik am Jesus College der Universität Cambridge und arbeitete als Englischlehrer und Journalist, bevor er sich 1992 nach dem Erfolg seines Romans "Fever Pitch" ganz für das Schreiben entschied. Das Thema des Romans, die große Leidenschaft für den Fußballclub Arsenal London, ist auch seine eigene.

Auch seine weiteren Romane behandeln persönliche Themen: 1995 widmete Hornby sich mit "High Fidelity" seiner Liebe zur Popmusik, in "About a Boy", veröffentlicht 1998, geht es um einen "unnormalen" Jungen, eine Parallele zu Hornbys autistischem Sohn. Spätestens jetzt wurde er als Kultautor und einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der Popliteratur angesehen.

Es erschienen bis heute weitere Romane, unter anderem "Slam", "How to be good" oder zuletzt "Miss Blackpool". Auch wurden bereits einige von Hornbys Büchern erfolgreich verfilmt. Für seine Drehbücher zu den Filmen "An Education" und "Brooklyn" wurde er für den "Oscar" nominiert.

Nick Hornby lebt in London und ist in zweiter Ehe mit der Filmproduzentin Amanda Posey verheiratet.

Recenzii

"A follow up to High Fidelity...About a Boy is an acerbic, emotionally richer yet no less funny tale...shrewdly hilarious."—Entertainment Weekly



"Hornby is a writer who dares to be witty, intelligent and emotionally generous all at once. He combines a skilled, intuitive appreciation for the rigors of comic structure with highly original insights about the way the enchantments of popular culture insinuate themselves into middle-class notions of romance."—The New York Times Book Review



"The conversations between Will and Marcus are hilariously loopy."—The Boston Globe



"An amusing male-bonding theme...stylish, well-observed"—People



"Writing with real 'soul.'"—Harper's Bazaar



"An utterly charming, picaresque tale of an older guy, a young kid, and the funky, dysfunctional real-life ties that bind—and unbind."—Vogue


Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:

About a Boy is Nick Hornby's comic and heart-warming million-copy bestseller
'How cool was Will Freeman?'
Too cool! At thirty-six, he's as hip as a teenager. He's single, child-free, goes to the right clubs and knows which trainers to wear. He's also found a great way to score with women: attend single parents' groups full of available (and grateful) mothers, all hoping to meet a Nice Guy.
Which is how Will meets Marcus, the oldest twelve-year-old on the planet. Marcus is a bit strange: he listens to Joni Mitchell and Mozart, looks after his mum and has never owned a pair of trainers. But Marcus latches on to Will - and won't let go. Can Will teach Marcus how to grow up cool? And can Marcus help Will just to grow up?
This astonishing novel, now a modern classic, was adapted for the acclaimed 2002 film About A Boy, starring Hugh Grant and Nicholas Hoult. Fans of One Day by David Nicholls and Any Human Heart by William Boyd will devour this book, as will lovers of fiction everywhere.
'A stunner of a novel. Utterly read-in-one-day, forget-where-you-are-on-the-tube-gripping' Marie Claire
'About the awful, hilarious, embarrassing places where children and adults meet, and Hornby has captured it with delightful precision' Irish Times
'It takes a writer with real talent to make this work, and Hornby has it - in buckets' Literary Review
