Ben Riley ist Architekt und geschieden... und ein m rrischer, wortkarger Egoist. Er lebt allein in einer gro en Wohnung, in die er sich gern zur ckzieht, um Kontakten und Konflikten aus dem Weg zu gehen. Sie ist seine Festung und er der uneingeschr nkte Herr darin. Nach einer Phase des Selbstmitleids ist Ben mittlerweile sehr zufrieden mit diesem Leben, das ihm Kontinuit t und Sicherheit gibt. Bis zu dem Tag, an dem sein Kollege und eigentlich einziger Freund, Derek Foreman, vollkommen aufgel st vor der T r steht. Obwohl sein Inneres Ich ihm sagt, er solle ihn wieder wegschicken, l sst er ihn ein - ohne zu ahnen, dass sich sein Leben dadurch grundlegend ndern wird. Jetzt muss er reden, wird nach seiner Meinung gefragt, soll Ratschl ge geben und die Probleme seines Freundes auch noch verstehen Und nicht nur das: Auch seine ungeliebte Chefin Allyson benimmt sich pl tzlich vollkommen merkw rdig. Und als ob all das noch nicht reicht, versucht seine Exfrau Sophia offensichtlich, ihn wieder einmal schamlos zu manipulieren. Und so findet sich Ben nicht entspannt auf seiner Couch wieder, sondern mittendrin in genau dem chaotischen Wirrwarr, dem er eigentlich entsagt hatte: Dem Leben
Diktsviten Ben dyker ner i benens universum, skildrar deras kluvna längtan efter en köttkrok att hänga upp allting på, den vilsna förhoppningen om levande ben i rymden och förnekelsen av djuphavets fruktsamma mörker, livets förmodade mirakel och viljan att hellre nå ytan än att finna en botten och hitta ett svar.

From Doris Lessing, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, the sequel to one of her most celebrated novels, ‘The Fifth Child’. ‘The Fifth Child’, Doris Lessing’s 1988 novel, made a powerful impact on publication. Its account of idyllic marital and parental bliss shattered by the arrival of the feral fifth child of the Lovatts made for unnerving and compulsive reading. That child, Ben, is the central character of this sequel, which picks up the fable at the end of his childhood and takes our primal, misunderstood, maladjusted teenager out into the world. He meets mostly with mockery, fear and incomprehension, but with just enough kindness and openness to keep him afloat as his adventures take him from London to the south of France and on to South America in his restless quest for community, companionship and peace. Lessing employs a plain, unadorned prose fit for fables; again, we have a childlike perspective at the heart of the book; again, the world in all its malevolence and misapprehension swirls around at the edge, while, occasionally, a strong character steps forward to try to set a good example.

Far from resting on her laurels, Lessing goes from strength to strength. Ben's half-human ignorance, paranoia, and rage are magnificently imagined and vividly present on every page. The condition of the outsider has hardly ever before in fiction been portrayed with such raw power and righteous anger. Few, if any, living writers can have explored so many forbidding fictional worlds with such passion and conviction. -- Kirkus ReviewsThe poignant and tragic sequel to Doris Lessing's bestselling novel, THE FIFTH CHILD.At eighteen, Ben is in the world, but not of it. He is too large, too awkward, too inhumanly made. Now estranged from his family, he must find his own path in life. From London and the south of France to Brazil and the mountains of the Andes. Ben is tossed about in a tumultuous search for his people, a reason for his being. How the world receives him, and, he fares in it will horrify and captivate until the novel's dramatic finale.

At the beginning of the first century, Judah Ben-Hur lived as a prince, descended from the royal line of Judea and one of Jerusalem's most prosperous merchant families. But his world falls apart when he is betrayed by his best friend, Messala, who falsely accuses him of an attempt to assassinate the Roman governor. Convicted without trial, Judah is sentenced to slavery on a Roman galley, while his mother and sister are imprisoned and his family's assets are seized. All seems lost, but just before boarding the ship, Ben-Hur has his first interaction with the Christ, who offers him water and hope. Their lives continue to intersect as Ben-Hur miraculously survives his time as a slave to become a charioteer, confront his betrayer, Messala, in an epic race, fall in love with the beautiful Esther, avenge his family, and become a follower of the Christ. A true epic, Ben-Hur weaves biblical history and a rich adventure plot into a timeless tale certain to entertain a new generation of readers.
