Das Haus mit den sieben Giebeln

"Ein Roman wie ein Haus, wie ein Herz, wie Amerika".(Elmar Krekeler, Literarische Welt)Ein düsterer Holzbau vermodert auf ruchlos ergaunertem Grund. Die Schrecken der Vergangenheit quälen seine verschrobenen Bewohner, Gefangene im Mief ihres bigotten Puritanismus. Kann eine neue Generation Licht ins Dunkel bringen? Dieser fulminante Roman zeigt Nathaniel Hawthorne, Vorreiter der gothic fiction, auf dem Höhepunkt seines Schaffens.¢Gott wird ihm Blut zu trinken geben!¢ So verflucht Matthew Maule Ende des 17. Jahrhunderts Oberst Pyncheon, weil dieser ihn als Hexer hängen lässt, um an seine Ländereien zu gelangen. Prompt stirbt der Oberst schon bei der Einweihungsfeier des Hauses mit den sieben Giebeln. Und auch gut hundertfünfzig Jahre später, Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts, steht das Schicksal der Familie noch unter einem schlechten Stern: Die alte Hepzibah Pyncheon fristet ein Dasein in Armut, ihr Bruder Clifford saß dreißig Jahre unschuldig im Gefängnis. Doch als die junge Phoebe Pyncheon vor der Tür steht, erhellt ihr frisches und ungezwungenes Wesen das Haus wie ein Sonnenstrahl. Für sie entflammt der etwas eigenwillige, aber stets beherzte Künstler Holgrave, letzter Nachfahre der Maules ?x20AC;' ein Hoffnungsschimmer für ein Happy End.Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804?x20AC;'1864), einer der Gründerväter US-amerikanischer Literatur, glänzt mit seiner Mischung aus dunkler Romantik und hintersinnigem Humor. Nachwortautor Hanjo Kesting erkennt in diesem Werk ¢Hawthornes Vision eines jungen, erneuerten Amerika, das sich aus dem Bannkreis Europas und seines puritanischen Erbes gelöst hat¢.

The House of the Seven Gables , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min

In a sleepy little New England village stands a dark, weather-beaten, many-gabled house. This brooding mansion is haunted by a centuries-old curse that casts the shadow of ancestral sin upon the last four members of the distinctive Pyncheon family of Salem. The greed and haughty pride of the Pyncheon family through the generations is mirrored in the gloomy decay of their seven-gabled mansion, where the family's enfeebled and impoverished relations now live. Mysterious deaths threaten the living. Musty documents nestle behind hidden panels carrying the secret of the family's salvation - or its downfall. A brilliant intertwining of the popular, the symbolic, and the historical, Hawthorne's Gothic romance is a powerful exploration of personal and national guilt, a work that Henry James declared "the closest approach we are likely to have to the Great American Novel". ungekürzt.

A dark, many-gabled mansion in a small New England village houses the distinguished Pyncheon family, who are haunted by a centuries-old curse that casts the shadow of ancestral sin on its last four members. The arrival of Phoebe Pyncheon from the country breathes fresh air and sunshine into their musty, decaying home.
