Pressestimmen

Synopsis
The worst storm in history seem from the wheelhouse of a doomed fishing trawler; a mesmerisingly vivid account of a natural hell from a perspective that offers no escape. The 'perfect storm' is a once-in-a-hundred-years combination: a high pressure system from the Great Lakes, running into storm winds over an Atlantic island - Sable Island - and colliding with a weather system from the Caribbean: Hurricane Grace. This is the story of that storm, told through the accounts of individual fishing boats caught up in the maelstrom, their families waiting anxiously for news of their return, and the rescue services scrambled to save them. It is the story of the old battle between the fisherman and the sea, between man and Nature, but here Nature is an awesome and capricious power that transforms the surface of the Atlantic into an impossible tumult of water walls and gaping voids, with the capacity to break an oil tanker in two, let alone the 72ft swordfishing boat Andrea Gail with her crew of eight. A typical Hurricane encompasses a million cubic miles of atmosphere and can contain enough energy to, in theory, meet the electric power needs of the UK for a decade.Except that a hurricane will not be controlled. In spare, lyrical prose "The Perfect Storm" describes what happened when the Andrea Gail looked into the wrathful face of the perfect storm.

Eins vorne weg, wer ein Buch wie den Film sucht der ist schlecht beraten. Das Buch ist für denjenigen spannend, der neben Einzelheiten der Berufsschifffahrt auch an meteorologischen Details Spaß hat. Als Segler bekommt man beim Lesen dessen was hier beschrieben wird regelmäßig Gänsehaut. Aber auch Respekt vor Berufsfuschern. Insofern meiner Meinung nach absolut lesenswert. In der englischen Original Ausgabe allerdings nur für Leute die in der Sprache wirklich zu Hause sind.
This is a set text for the Cambridge Exam, FCE level. So I looked for it, found a bargain offer and had it delivered within days. This is the way Europe should work - fast delivery and no more customs inspection.
This book takes a natural disaster, a storm of the century, and builds it into a compelling clash of man against nature with man having little or no chance. "We Are Playthings of the Gods" kept running through my mind as I read this book.I am glad that a movie has been made from the book, because the book was clearly designed to be turned into a script. The material is incredibly visible and visceral at the same time.Even if you have never left dry land, you will soon have a good sense of what it meant to be a swordfisherman on the Andrea Gail when the storm came up.Since the ship was lost, the author had a difficult task -- to give us a sense of what happened without turning the book into a dry dissertation. The book is incredibly successful at turning the informed speculation into a story line of what might have happened. If anything, the lack of details allows you to use your imagination, which makes the story richer.Some will complain about the extensive background about Gloucester, the fishing fleets, boats, technology, and the people involved. For me, each element added a richness to the drama that made the story all that more gripping. Like a good Tom Clancy novel, the detail adds a texture and a context for the book that makes it all the more significant in your mind.The book has an unusual structure. It cuts in and out from the present to the past, and from present to past tense and back again. At one level, it operates like mental language. That technique gives the book an emotional immediacy that makes it have much more impact on the reader. Let it weave its magic, and you'll really enjoy yourself.Buy this book today, and save it to read the next time a howling wind and driving rain assault you on a dark night. Have a great read!
Just as John A. McPhee outlines the history of oranges, Sebastian Junger outlines "Men Against the Sea."In the very beginning of the book, Sebastian Junger tells you that this is not a novel or a fictionalization of the events of the last moments of the Andrea Gail. He believes if you read any fiction that, you would doubt the parts that are real facts. To this end He has includes many pieces of information about men against the sea; He describes the sea, equipment needed to deal with the sea and the lifestyle of the men who deal with the sea.Now some people may find his writing style has a feeling of tedium, tedium, and t-e-d-i-u-m. I find it just being through enough to not leave out any piece of information to tie this all together. However, you may have to make an effort to continue through it.Also like John McPhee, Sebastian Junger actually was writing about different dangerous jobs and magazine articles when he sold this book before it was put together. He struggled to balance this between a sort of documentary and thrill of the story. I think he did a good job.Oranges by John McPhee
