Besprechung
Philip Swallow, Morris Zapp, Persse McGarrigle and the lovely Angelica are the jet-propelled academics who are on the move, in the air and on the make in David Lodge s satirical Small World. It is a world of glamorous travel and high excitement, where stuffy lecture rooms are swapped for lush corners of the globe, and romance is in the air.
Kurztext / Annotation
Klein ist die Welt der Jet-Set-Akademiker auf der Jagd um den Globus von Symposium zu Symposium. Und klein ist der Kreis derjenigen, die die Fäden für das dazugehörige Intrigenspiel in der Hand halten. Der Ire Persse McGarrigle ist ein Neuling in dem Spiel der Eitelkeiten. Und er ist verliebt: eine gefährliche Kombination, wenn man unter ehrgeizige Mit-Professoren gerät.
