Shortlist Booker Prize 2023 Dit andere paradijs vertelt het op ware gebeurtenissen gebaseerde verhaal van een eiland waar generaties verschoppelingen hun thuis hebben gebouwd, beginnend bij de Zwarte Benjamin Honey en zijn Ierse vrouw Patience. Ruim een eeuw later wonen hun nazaten nog steeds op Apple Island, samen met een zeer diverse groep buren. Ze zijn arm en lijden vaak honger, maar zijn gevrijwaard van de discriminatie en segregatie die op het vasteland aan de orde van de dag zijn. Tot de idealistische schoolmeester Matthew Diamond de aandacht van de autoriteiten vestigt op de in zijn ogen erbarmelijke omstandigheden, met de gedwongen evacuatie van het eiland tot gevolg. De bewoners gaan onverschrokken op zoek naar een nieuw paradijs.

Dalla fine del Settecento fino al 1912, l’isola di Malaga accolse una comunità di pescatori composta da afroamericani, bianchi poveri e altre etnie che avevano trovato rifugio su quel lembo di terra nel Golfo del Maine. Nel 1912, il governatore dello Stato decretò «lo sgombero dei quarantasette residenti e la traslazione delle salme dei loro defunti». Un atto che sancí con efferata violenza la fine di quella comunità. In Un altro Eden, con la grazia della sua impeccabile scrittura, Paul Harding ritorna su quella vicenda crudele per narrare una magnifica storia «fatta di poesia e luce solare», come ha scritto il New York Times. Il romanzo si apre nel 1793 con l’arrivo ad Apple Island – cosí l’isola viene ribattezzata nella finzione letteraria – di Benjamin Honey, nero nato in schiavitú, e di sua moglie Patience, irlandese di Galway. Aspirante frut-ticultore, Benjamin Honey sbarca sull’isola con dodici sacchetti di iuta contenenti semi di diverse varietà di mele e, con ostinata pazienza, riesce a creare il suo piccolo Eden: un frutteto di trentadue meli. Piú di un secolo dopo, nel 1911, una manciata di esseri umani vive sull’isola: i discendenti di Benjamin e Patience Honey, innanzi tutto, Esther Honey e suo figlio Eha, i figli di Eha; le sorelle McDermott, che passano le giornate a lavare i panni e ad accudire tre orfani; i fratellastri Lark, abili pescatori dai capelli e dagli occhi incolori, ereditati da padri africani, mamme irlandesi e nonni svedesi, e i loro quattro figli, vaganti per l’isola come spettri gentili e affamati; la vecchia Annie Parker e Zachary Hand to God Proverbs che vive in un albero cavo. Gli abitanti di Apple Island conducono un’esistenza semplice e povera nel loro piccolo Eden, in cui ciascuno è libero di prendersi cura delle proprie ore e dei propri giorni. Ignorano, dunque, che qualcun altro possa decidere del loro tempo e decretarne addirittura la fine. Ignorano anche i tormenti di Matthew Diamond, il missionario bianco che ogni mattina rema fino all’isola per predicare e insegnare tutto lo scibile ai bambini. Fermamente convinto che ogni uomo è suo fratello, Matthew Diamond non può, tuttavia, fare a meno di provare un istintivo e viscerale senso di repulsione ogni volta che si trova, come afferma con candore in una lettera, «alla presenza di un negro». Angustiato dal senso di colpa, si rivela non soltanto impotente dinanzi alla distruzione della piccola comunità di Apple Island, decretata dai deliri eugenetici e razzisti dell’epoca, ma anche incapace di scorgere in quel lembo di terra un’antica verità della sua fede: che l’Eden è dei poveri e dei semplici. «Ed eccoci di nuovo di fronte al grande talento di Harding». The New York Times «Harding scrive con la gravitas di un creatore di miti... Il ritmo della narrazione è maestoso, le descrizioni, anche di piccoli eventi, stupende... Un altro Eden è bellissimo e straziante... come il luogo reale che lo ha ispirato». Claire Messud «Con una prosa lirica e audace, Un altro Eden racconta un’utopia nel momento del suo declino. Dinanzi alle storie degli isolani ci troviamo a interrogarci sulla natura ambigua della compassione, sui limiti della tolleranza e su cosa significhi realmente essere salvati. Un romanzo luminoso, che fa riflettere». Esi Edugyan, autrice de Le avventure di Washington Black

In 1792, formerly enslaved Benjamin Honey and his Irish wife, Patience, discover an island where they can make a life together. Over a century later, the Honeys’ descendants and a diverse group of neighbors are desperately poor, isolated, and often hungry, but nevertheless protected from the hostility awaiting them on the mainland. During the tumultuous summer of 1912, Matthew Diamond, a retired, idealistic but prejudiced schoolteacher-turned-missionary, disrupts the community’s fragile balance through his efforts to educate its children. His presence attracts the attention of authorities on the mainland who, under the influence of the eugenics-thinking popular among progressives of the day, decide to forcibly evacuate the island, institutionalize its residents, and develop the island as a vacation destination. Beginning with a hurricane flood reminiscent of the story of Noah’s Ark, the novel ends with yet another Ark. In prose of breathtaking beauty and power, Paul Harding brings to life an unforgettable cast of characters: Iris and Violet McDermott, sisters raising three orphaned Penobscot children; Theophilus and Candace Larks and their brood of vagabond children; the prophetic Zachary Hand to God Proverbs, a Civil War veteran who lives in a hollow tree; and more. A spellbinding story of resistance and survival, This Other Eden is an enduring testament to the struggle to preserve human dignity in the face of intolerance and injustice.

Für »Tinkers« wurde Paul Harding mit dem Pulitzerpreis ausgezeichnet. Nun schreibt er die Geschichte der Familie Crosby, die in dem Städtchen Enon in Maine lebt, fort. Er erzählt vom Enkel George Washington Crosbys, davon, wie Charlie Crosby seine Familie verliert und fast auch seine Existenz. Grandiose Sprachbilder, intensive Naturbeobachtungen, visionäre Träume und immer wieder Erinnerungen, schmerzhaft und süß, bestimmen diesen herzzerreißenden Roman über Zeit und Sterblichkeit und den Verlust eines geliebten Menschen. »Die meisten Männer aus meiner Familie machen ihre Frauen zu Witwen und ihre Kinder zu Waisen. Ich bin die Ausnahme. Mein einziges Kind, Kate, wurde mit dreizehn von einem Auto angefahren und getötet, als sie mit dem Fahrrad vom Strand nach Hause fuhr.« Damit beginnt die Geschichte von Charlie Crosby aus Enon, von seinem Weg durch die Hölle und, vielleicht, wieder zurück. Denn seine Trauer ist so maßlos, so allumfassend und unversöhnlich, dass sie sein Leben immer mehr zerstört. Seine Frau verlässt ihn bald nach dem Tod der Tochter, und Charlie, der sich in einem seiner Wutanfälle die Hand gebrochen hat, ernährt sich seitdem mehr oder weniger von Schmerztabletten und Alkohol und verwahrlost zusehends. Er kann sich um die Außenwelt nicht mehr kümmern, zu sehr nimmt ihn sein Innenleben gefangen: Gegenwart und Vergangenheit durchdringen sich, Erinnerungen an den verstorbenen Großvater, lange Spaziergänge und Vogelbeobachtungen in den Wäldern von Maine, die Geschichte von Enon und auch von Salem, das ganz in der Nähe liegt, und seinen Hexen in früheren Zeiten – all das bestimmt seine Gedanken und sein Sein. Vor allem aber sind da immer wieder Erlebnisse und Gespräche mit seiner über alles geliebten Tochter, Entwürfe verschiedener Leben, die er mit ihr hätte erleben wollen. Denn er kann und will ihren Tod nicht akzeptieren ...

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST NOVELS OF THE YEAR BY The Wall Street Journal • American Library Association • Kirkus Reviews A stunning allegorical novel about one man’s enduring love for his daughter In Enon, Paul Harding follows a year in the life of Charlie Crosby as he tries to come to terms with a shattering personal tragedy. Grandson of George Crosby (the protagonist of Tinkers), Charlie inhabits the same dynamic landscape of New England, its seasons mirroring his turbulent emotional odyssey. Along the way, Charlie’s encounters are brought to life by his wit, his insights into history, and his yearning to understand the big questions. A stunning mosaic of human experience, Enon affirms Paul Harding as “a contemporary master and one of our most important writers” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

[He] is a major voice in American fiction.”—Chicago Tribune “Paul Harding’s novel Tinkers won the Pulitzer Prize; its stunning successor, Enon, only raises the bar.”—O: The Oprah Magazine “Extraordinary . . . a darkly intoxicating read . . . [Harding’s] prose is steeped in a visionary, transcendentalist tradition that echoes Blake, Rilke, Emerson, and Thoreau.”—The New Yorker “So wild and riveting it’s practically an aria . . . Harding is a superb stylist.”—Entertainment Weekly “[Charlie’s grief], shaped by a gifted writer’s caressing attention, can bring about moments of what Charlie calls ‘brokenhearted joy.’”—The Wall Street Journal “Astonishing . . . a work of fiction that feels authentic as memoir.”—Financial Times “Read Enon to live longer in the harsh, gorgeous atmosphere that Paul Harding has created.”—San Francisco Chronicle
