Description

Achtzig Titanschrauben halten das Gesicht des Models Charlotte Swenson nach einem schweren Autounfall zusammen. Zwar immer noch schön, erinnert nichts mehr an ihr früheres Aussehen. Als sie nach ihrem Krankenhausaufenthalt in ihr Apartment im 25. Stock zurückkehrt, ist sie wie eine Fremde in New York, jener Stadt, die ihr früher die Welt bedeutete. Doch was, wenn die Öffentlichkeit längst von makelloser Schönheit gelangweilt ist und echtes Blut sehen will? Mit erzählerischer Brillanz und satirischer Hellsichtigkeit hinterfragt Jennifer Egan unsere obsessive Image-Kultur und den Maßstab ihrer Werte. Ein kühl hypnotisierender Thriller im Stile David Lynchs über »das irrsinnige Treiben auf dem Jahrmarkt der Eitelkeiten und den blindwütigen Hass derjenigen, die nicht mittanzen dürfen.« Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung
