Neu gelesen: (als E-Book)

Jodi Picoult, Plain Truth

Endlich wieder ein E-Book, ich hatte es schon angefangen zu vermissen. Und endlich wieder ein Picoult, und dazu wieder so ein richtiger Knaller. Ganz abgesehen davon, dass es einen so tiefen Einblick in die Welt der Amish und ihrer Lebensanschauung gibt, war es wieder einmal sehr spannend und bewegend.

I waited for Katie to make the connection, to say something about her own circumstances in relation to mine - but once again she surprised me. "You know what I noticed when I was with Jacob? In your world, people can reach each other in an instant. There's the telephone, and the fax - and on the computer you can talk to someone all the way round the world. You've got people telling their secrets on TV talk shows, and magazines that publish pictures of movie stars trying to hide in their homes. All those connections, but everyone there seems so lonely."

(Jodi Picoult, Plain Truth, 2015)
