Klappentext zu „Nation “
When a giant wave destroys his entire Nation, Mau finds himself totally alone. Until he meets Daphne, daughter of a colonial Governor and the sole survivor from a shipwreck. They have no common language, no common culture - but together they discover some remarkable things - like how to milk a pig and why spitting in beer is a good idea. Then other survivors arrive on the island, and not all of them are friendly... In Nation Pratchett bring us a novel that is both witty and wise, encompassing themes of death and nationhood, while also being extremely funny.

Rezension zu „Nation “
"It's witty and wise, but it leaves its young readers enough room for a newly formed opinion or two as they think about its themes of love, loss, loyalty, courage, religion and nationhood." -- www.thebookbag.co.uk "An enchanting novel . . . Terry Pratchett is one of the most interesting and critically under-rated novelists we have." -- "The Times" "Pratchett is, like Mark Twain or Jonathan Swift, not just a great writer but also an original thinker." -- "Guardian" "From the Hardcover edition."
Pressezitat
Surely in some corner of the multiverse, there is a civilization based on the thinking of Terry Pratchett. And what a civilized corner of the universe that must be. Frank Cottrell-Boyce
