Tony Bradman Zitate

These days it seems that every big, new, heavily promoted children's book is rather like the ghost of poor old Jacob Marley. Each one comes trailing a long, clanking chain of references - in the form of overexcited press releases and slightly hysterical jacket blurbs - to bestsellers of a supposedly similar nature.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Heutzutage scheint es, dass jedes große, neue, stark beförderte Kinderbuch dem Geist des armen alten Jacob Marley ähnelt. Jeder kommt einer langen, klirrenden Kette von Hinweisen - in Form von überreizten Pressemitteilungen und leicht hysterischen Jackenklapps - zu Bestsellern einer angeblich ähnlichen Natur hinterher.

I left New York after my mother died and, rather aimlessly, had settled in Istanbul for a change of scene. It was a rather dramatic gesture on my part, since I'd lived in New York for 20 years, but I felt I needed something different - the escalating expense and pressure of New York had begun to weary me.
