Inhaltsangabe
`Jonathan Raban is simply one of the great writers of non-fiction at work today. I hold his work in awe.' Robert Macfarlane `Unfailingly witty and entertaining.' Salman Rushdie Following in the footsteps of countless emigrants, Jonathan Raban takes ship for New York from Liverpool, to explore how succeeding generations of newcomers have fared in America. He finds a country of massive contrasts, between the Street People and the Air People in New York, between small town and big city, between thrusting immigrants and down-at-heel native Americans. Having outgrown his minute rented New York apartment, he heads for Guntersville, Alabama, where he settles for a few months as a good ol' boy in a cabin on the lake with a `rented' elderly lab. From there he flies to the promise of Seattle, discovering its thrusting but alienated Asian community and thence to the watery lowlife of Key West. The result is a breathtaking observation of the States - a travelogue, a social history and a love letter in one.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Born in 1942, Jonathan Raban taught English and American Literature at university until the age of 27, when he achieved his childhood ambition and began to earn his living as a writer. Combining literary criticism with writing fiction and for the radio, he was a much admired stylist on the London literary scene. From the late 1970s he began increasingly to travel, finding in these journeys the raw material from which to fashion his literary art, the background against which to try to understand his life and the lives of others. Married three times, he now lives in Seattle, not far from his only daughter.
