Written with his typical witty and delicate touch, Christian Oster's new novel pokes fun at the postmodern male's overrated sensitivity. Oster’s stories are simple—at least if we mean stories that can be summarized in a few words. In the case of The Unforeseen, such a summary would begin like this: the narrator, who has a perpetual cold, lives with a woman who never catches a cold and so has the immediate intuition that the cold she has now, as the two of them drive together toward the sea at the... Written with his typical witty and delicate touch, Christian Oster's new novel pokes fun at the postmodern male's overrated sensitivity. Oster’s stories are simple—at least if we mean stories that can be summarized in a few words. In the case of The Unforeseen, such a summary would begin like this: the narrator, who has a perpetual cold, lives with a woman who never catches a cold and so has the immediate intuition that the cold she has now, as the two of them drive together toward the sea at the opening of the novel, is a very bad omen indeed. From the author of A Cleaning Woman, made into a film by Claude Berri, comes Oster’s new novel of perfect, erudite, and sometimes laughable sadness. Oster’s perceptive gaze, and the changing rhythm of his sentences, guide his reader through the psychological realism of obsession and desire. The honesty of emotion in The Unforeseen is matched only by its subversive intent.Taal: Engels;Afmetingen: 18x191x133 mm;Gewicht: 290,00 gram;Verschijningsdatum: september 2007;ISBN10: 1590512650;ISBN13: 9781590512654; Engelstalig | Paperback | 2007.

contemporary,fiction,humanities,literary,literature,literature and fiction,textbooks, A Cleaning Womantraces the complexities of desire through the sensitive, sensual observations of a man in the thrall of ecstasy. As a long-standing relationship ends, Jacques finds himself irresistibly drawn to the leaflets advertising the cleaning services of an anonymous woman identified only by her initials. Once he learns her name, and the details of her affairs, he enters into an erotic relationship that challenges the class taboos that stand between them. This novel offers the unique perspective of a heartbroken man desperately infatuated with a woman he has just met. We hear his wistful appreciation of her every tuft of hair and catch each dust mote that hovers over them. Meanwhile, the narratoraAos possessive gaze blinds his ability to see himself at all. His dryness teases the reader into believing in his modesty, while we see him hilariously exposed when the story unravels around him. Christian Oster's polished style and his perfect control of point-of-view guide his reader through the psychological realism of obsession and desire. The honesty of emotion in this novel is matched only by its subversive intent. "A Cleaning Womanis a roman noir-tragic and comical-where the most intimate and intractable disappointments are played out." -Cinerama "The real contract of faith between Oster and us, his readers, is that when we open his books we are almost certain to find out about ourselves." -Liberation.
