Pat Conroy - Der große Santini Originaltitel: The Great Santini Roman. Bastei Lübbe Taschenbücher 1989 704 Seiten, ISBN: 3404117476 Bull Meecham, nach eigener Aussage der verdammt beste Kampfpilot auf Erden, kehrt nach einem Jahr in Europa wieder nach USA zurück. Ein Jahr lang hatten seine Frau Lilian, die Kinder Ben, Mary-Anne, Matt und Karen bei der Großmutter in Atlanta gelebt, ohne den Einfluß der Marines. Doch Bull ist nach Revenge, South Carolina, versetzt worden - also zieht die Familie zum vierten Mal in vier Jahren um. Bull führt ein sehr hartes Regime in seiner Familie. Kinder von Marines, ist seine Meinung, müssen in allem die Besten sein, immer diszipliniert, und haben sich vor allem seinem absoluten Gehorsamkeitsanspruch zu unterwerfen. Jedes der Kinder versucht, damit auf seine Weise fertig zu werden. Ben, der Älteste, bemüht sich meist, einfach nicht anzuecken - und ist trotzdem vom Wunsch beseelt, den Vater irgendwann mal zu besiegen. Er ist es auch, der die Fäuste am ehesten zu spüren bekommt. Mary-Anne leidet schwer darunter, nicht die unglaubliche Südstaaten-Schönheit der Mutter geerbt zu haben. Ihre Waffe gegen den Despoten ist ihr loses Mundwerk.

13. Pat Conroy - Beach Music / Beach Musik - LESELUST-Rezension Rezension von Daniela Ecker. http://www.die-leselust.de/buch/conro002.htm

Pat Conroy - Beach Music Originaltitel: Beach Musik Roman. Bastei Lübbe Taschenbücher 1995 894 Seiten, ISBN: 340412801X Ein Jahr nachdem Jacks Frau Shyla Selbstmord begangen hatte, zieht er mit der kleinen Tochter Shyla nach Italien, um ein neues Leben zu beginnen. Und auch, um seine Tochter von den amerikanischen Südstaaten fernzuhalten, von seiner großen und chaotischen Familie - und von den Shylas Eltern, die ihm die Tochter wegnehmen wollten. Shylas Eltern hatten den Holocaust überlebt. Doch der Schrecken der Verfolgung, die Erinnerung an all die Greueltaten haben sie niemals losgelassen. Die Geschichten, die Shyla in ihrer Kindheit zu hören bekam, haben sich ihr tief eingebrannt - zu tief, bis sie eines Tages keinen Ausweg mehr sah. Auch wenn Jack seine Tochter dem direkten Einfluss seiner alten Heimat entzogen hat - die Geschichten, die er ihr aus seiner Vergangenheit erzählt, bewirken das Gegenteil. Als eines Tages das Telegramm in Rom eintrifft, dass Jack´s Mutter im Sterben läge, geht er wieder zurück - und stellt sich dem Schmerz. Wenn man die Südstaaten liebt, und gerne ein Buch liest, dessen Naturbeschreibungen eine tiefe Sehnsucht hinterlassen - und wer zudem mal wieder so richtig schön heulen möchte, dem kann ich dieses Buch ans Herz legen.

Biography Pat Conroy was born on October 26, 1945, in Atlanta, Georgia, to a young career military officer from Chicago and a Southern beauty from Alabama, whom Pat often credits for his love of language. He was the first of seven children. His father was a violent and abusive man, a man whose biggest mistake, Conroy once said, was allowing a novelist to grow up in his home.  Since his family had to move many times to different military bases around the South, Conroy changed schools frequently, finally attending the Citadel Military Academy in Charleston, South Carolina, upon his father's insistence. While still a student, he wrote and then published his first book, The Boo , a tribute to a beloved teacher. After graduation, Conroy taught English in Beaufort, where he met and married a young woman with two children, a widow of the Vietnam War. He then accepted a job teaching underprivileged children in a one-room schoolhouse on Daufuskie Island off the South Carolina shore. After a year, Conroy was fired for his unconventional teaching practices – such as his refusal to allow corporal punishment of his students – and for his personal differences with the school's administration. Conroy evened the score by exposing the racism and appalling conditions his students endured with the publication of The Water is Wide in 1972. The book won Conroy a humanitarian award from the National Education Association and was made into the feature film
