Fülszöveg


An American Childhood is about what it feels like to be alive and awake. Annie Dillard continues the passionate exploration of the interior life she began in Pilgrim at Tinker Creek- She evokes childhoods vigor, clarity and keenness.
"I grew up in Pittsburgh in the 1950s," she writes, "in a house full of comedians, reading books." Dillard lecirns her world, a grcind and pciradox-ical one. She bird-watches at the country club. Her father quits his corporation job and tcikes his boat down the Ohio River alone for a few months, down toward New Orleans. Her mother teaches the three sisters how to tell a joke, dance all night, and bet a poker hcind.
Dillard's ecstatic interest in the world begins here in childhood. She collects rocks cind insects; she mcikes shcirp pencil drawings; she memorizes faces for detective work, pitches a baseball, plays with a microscope, lecirns psalms, tries flying. Its an ordinary childhood. What is extraordinary is Dillard's distinctive irony cind humor... Tovább
