Half His Age (Paperback)
Half His Age (Paperback)
De langverwachte, grappige, droevige, spannende roman over seks, klasse, verlangen en macht - en de (vaak misplaatste) moeite die we doen om te krijgen wat we willen. Geschreven door Jennette McCurdy, de auteur van de internationale bestseller Ik ben blij dat mijn moeder dood is. Waldo is hongerig. Bot. Naïef. Wijs. Impulsief. Eenzaam. Boos. Gekwetst. Eindeloos hunkerend. En wat ze het allerliefst wil? Haar docent creatief schrijven, meneer Korgy. Meneer Korgy, met zijn vrouw en kind, zijn hypotheek en zijn rekeningen, met zijn vage dromen, zijn verschrompelde uiterlijk en zijn groeiende buik. Waldo begrijpt zelf niet waarom ze hem wil. Is het zijn passie? Zijn levenservaring? Het feit dat hij boeken en films kent die zij niet kent? Zijn ze gelijkgestemden, die op dezelfde manier kijken naar de wereld om hen heen? Of misschien is het al genoeg dat hij haar ziet zoals niemand anders haar ziet. Verrassend scherpzinnig, bijtend grappig en intens aangrijpend: Half His Age is het

From the acclaimed author of THE HACIENDA, Mozambique Mysteries is a story of new beginnings in a country of contrasts and challenges - her most inspiring story yet. ** 'Teran's writing has won many accolades and one can see why: it is vivid, intense and nicely cadenced' NEW STATESMAN ** 'A good example of what a little foreign money and local determinations can achieve... this book bears witness to a good kind of madness, of which many will be jealous' INDEPENDENT ** 'Inspirational... an excellent first-hand guide to Mozambique' TRIBUNE ** 'Her new incarnation is possibly her most extr…

Stone Age Anniversary Edition
Stone Age Anniversary Edition
Stone Age Anniversary Edition The "Stone Age" times were hard indeed. In their roles as hunters, collectors, farmers, and tool makers, our ancestors worked with their legs and backs straining against wooden plows in the stony earth. Of course, progress did not stop with the wooden plow. People always searched for better tools and more productive plants to make their work more effective.In Stone Age , the players live in this time, just as our ancestors did. They collect wood, break stone and wash their gold from the river. They trade freely, expand their village and so achieve new levels of civilization. With a balance of luck and planning, the players compete for food in this pre-historic time. Players use up to ten tribe members each in three phases. In the first phase, players place their men in regions of the board that they think will benefit them, including the hunt, the trading center, or the quarry. In the second phase, the starting player activates each of his staffed areas in…

THE SUNDAY TIMES NO.1 BESTSELLER

Half His Age is a highly anticipated, funny, sad, thrilling novel about sex, class, desire, and power - and the (often misguided) lengths we'll go to to get what we want, from Jennette McCurdy, the three-million copy bestselling author of I'm Glad My Mom Died.

'A HILARIOUS AND UNCOMFORTABLE TRIUMPH' GUARDIAN

'EERIE, UNSETTLING AND BELIEVABLE' GILLIAN FLYNN, AUTHOR OF GONE GIRL

'ABSOLUTE DYNAMITE' ELIZABETH DAY

Waldo is ravenous. Horny. Blunt. Naive. Wise. Impulsive. Lonely. Angry. Hurting. Endlessly wanting. And the thing she wants most of all? Mr. Korgy, her creative writing teacher.

Mr Korgy, with the wife and the kid and the mortgage and the bills, with the dead dreams and the atrophied looks and the growing paunch. She doesn't know why she wants him. Is it his passion? His life experience? The fact that he knows books and films that she doesn't? Or are they actually kindred spirits, sharing the same filter with which they each take in the world around them? Or, perhaps, it's just enough that he sees her when no one else does.

Startlingly perceptive, mordantly funny, and keenly poignant, Half His Age is an incisive study of a yearning seventeen-year-old who disregards all obstacles in her effort to be seen, to be desired and to be loved.
