Produktbeschreibung

Twelve-year-old Andrea Heinrichsen leaves her loving, if somewhat overprotective mother, to take part in a three-week orchestra festival in Leipzig. There she meets up with the likewise twelve-year-old Angela Heinrichsen, who bears shocking resemblance to her, and the illusory family life her mother had built up around Andrea caves in on itself. The twins emulate the main characters from "The Parent Trap" and trade places, unaware of the dangers that lurk ahead. Surprise follows surprise as events unfold in this suspenseful novel.Mit zwölf Jahren verlässt Andrea Heinrichsen ihre liebevolle, wenn auch etwas überbehütende Mutter, um an einem dreiwöchigen Orchesterfest teilzunehmen. Dort begegnet sie der ebenfalls zwölfjährigen, ihr schaurig ähnlichen Angela Heinrichsen, und die bequeme Familienwelt, die ihre Mutter um Andrea herum aufgebaut hatte, kracht mit einem Mal in sich zusammen. Um der ganzen Sache auf den Grund zu gehen, ahmen die Zwillinge die Mädchen in dem ihnen bekannten Kinderroman "Das doppelte Lottchen" nach und tauschen die Plätze, ohne die Gefahren zu ahnen, die ihnen bevorstehen. Die Überraschungen häufen sich in diesem spannenden Roman.

Autorenporträt

Novelist Virginia L. Lewis has held academic positions as a Germanist since 1988. She received her Ph.D. in Modern German Literature from the University of Pennsylvania in 1989. As a recipient of a DAAD Fellowship in 1987-88, Lewis researched the depiction of crimes against property in nineteenth-century German prose at the Universität Hamburg. The outcome of this work was her first book, Flames of Passion/Flames of Greed: Acts of Arson in German Prose Fiction 1850-1900, published in 1991. In her book Globalizing the Peasant: Access to Land and the Possibility of Self-Realization (2007), Lewis develops and applies a definition of "Global Literature" that privileges the role of narrative as an expression of the impact of globalization in every society it has touched. Most recently, she has translated Móricz Zsigmond's first published novel Sárarany (1910) into English as Gold in the Mud. Virginia L. Lewis is currently employed at Northern State University in Aberdeen, South Dakota.
