When Jack and Elizabeth meet as college students in the gritty '90s Chicago art scene, the two quickly join forces and hold on tight, each eager to claim a place in the thriving underground scene with an appreciative kindred spirit. Fast-forward twenty years to suburban married life, and alongside the challenges of parenting, they encounter the often-baffling pursuits of health and happiness from polyamorous would-be suitors to home-renovation hysteria. For the first time, Jack and Elizabeth struggle to recognize each other, and the no-longer-youthful dreamers are forced to face their demons, from unfulfilled career ambitions to childhood memories of their own dysfunctional families. In the process, Jack and Elizabeth must undertake separate, personal excavations, or risk losing the best thing in their lives: each other.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“The Nix is a mother-son psychodrama with ghosts and politics, but it’s also a tragicomedy about anger and sanctimony in America. . . . Nathan Hill is a maestro.” —John Irving From the suburban Midwest to New York City to the 1968 riots that rocked Chicago and beyond, The Nix explores—with sharp humor and a fierce tenderness—the resilience of love and home, even in times of radical change.It’s 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson—college professor, stalled writer—has a Nix of his own: his mother, Faye. He hasn’t seen her in decades, not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she’s re-appeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news, beguiles the internet, and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she’s facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel’s help. To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye’s losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew about his mother, and himself.From the Hardcover edition.

The Himalaya and surrounding regions are amongst the world's most linguistically diverse places. Of an estimated 600 languages spoken here at Asia's heart, few are researched in depth and many virtually undocumented. Historical developments and relationships between the region's languages also remain poorly understood. This book brings together new work on under-researched Himalayan languages with investigations into the complexities of the area's linguistic history, offering original data and perspectives on the synchrony and diachrony of the Greater Himalayan Region.The volume arises from papers given and topics discussed at the 16th Himalayan Languages Symposium in London in 2010. Most papers focus on Tibeto-Burman languages. These include topics relating to individual - mostly small and endangered - languages, such as Tilung, Shumcho, Rengmitca, Yongning Na and Tshangla; comparative research on the Tibetic, East Bodish and Tamangic language groups; and several papers whose scope covers the whole language family. The remaining paper deals with the origins of Burushaski, whose genetic affiliation remains uncertain.This book will be of special interest to scholars of Tibeto-Burman, and historical as well as general linguists.

Lieben in modernen Zeiten – kühn, bewegend, klugAls Jack and Elizabeth 1993 ein Paar werden, spricht alles gegen sie. Doch der junge Fotograf mit den bäuerlichen Wurzeln und die Psychologiestudentin aus gutem Hause heiraten – und erleben in der vibrierenden Kunstszene Chicagos aufregende erste Jahre. Doch nicht alles läuft glatt. Inmitten von Achtsamkeitsseminaren, polyamourösen Bekanntschaften und schrillen Immobilienträumen droht ihre Ehe zu scheitern. Und schließlich müssen sich diese nicht mehr ganz so jungen Träumer den Dämonen ihrer Vergangenheit stellen, wenn sie nicht das Wertvollste verlieren wollen: einander. Von den Absurditäten moderner Technologie bis zur perfekten Kindererziehung legt Nathan Hill unser Leben bloß und stößt auf tiefe Wahrheiten über Liebe, Intimität und Nähe.»Ein großartiger Erzähler. Nathan Hills Prosa ist voller Esprit und Tiefe.« The Guardian

Ein Anruf der Anwaltskanzlei Rogers & Rogers verändert schlagartig das Leben des Literaturprofessors Samuel Anderson. Er, der als Kind von seiner Mutter verlassen wurde, soll nun für sie bürgen: Nach einem tätlichen Angriff auf einen republikanischen Präsidentschaftskandidaten verlangt man von ihm, ihre Integrität zu bezeugen, obwohl er sie seit mehr als zwanzig Jahren nicht gesehen hat. Ein Gedanke, der ihm zunächst völlig abwegig erscheint. Doch Samuel will auch endlich begreifen, was damals wirklich geschehen ist. Ein allumfassender, mitreißender Roman über Liebe, Unabhängigkeit, Verrat und die lebenslange Hoffnung auf Erlösung, ein Familienroman und zugleich eine pointierte Gesellschaftsgeschichte von den Chicagoer Aufständen 1968 bis zu Occupy Wall Street.

Una afilada satira sobre el matrimonio y los vinculos que nos mantienen unidos Corren los anos noventa, Jack y Elizabeth son estudiantes universitarios y, en cuanto se conocen, tienen la certeza de haber encontrado a su alma gemela, por lo que no tardan en unir fuerzas y abrirse un hueco juntos en la floreciente escena artistica underground de Chicago. Veinte anos despues estan casados y, ademas de enfrentarse a los retos de ser padres, deberan lidiar con sectas disfrazadas de grupos de mindfulness, pretendientes poliamorosos, guerras en Facebook y algo llamado Pocion de Amor Numero Nueve. Por primera vez, a Jack y Elizabeth les cuesta reconocerse mutuamente, y los antano jovenes sonadores se veran obligados a plantar cara a sus demonios: desde ambiciones profesionales frustradas hasta dolorosos recuerdos infantiles en el seno de sus propias familias disfuncionales. Jack y Elizabeth habran de emprender caminos separados de indagacion personal o arriesgarse a perder lo mejor de sus vidas: el uno al otro. Nathan Hill regresa con una conmovedora e ingeniosa historia sobre el matrimonio, la busqueda a menudo desconcertante de una vida feliz y saludable, y sobre las historias que nos mantienen unidos. Desde la provocadora escena artistica del Chicago de los noventa hasta los actuales barrios residenciales y su obsesion por las dietas detox y las reformas en el hogar, Hill reinventa el genero amoroso con refrescantes dosis de erudicion, ironia y sensibilidad.

While providing unique and detailed information on early Tibeto-Burman languages and their contact and relationship to other languages, this book at the same time sets out to establish a field of Tibeto-Burman comparative-historical linguistics based on the classical Indo-European model. The volume includes six papers on Tangut, three on Tibetan and one each on the languages Mon, Burmese, Lepcha, Pyu, Nam, and Yi. Building a bridge between linguistic and literary research the range of studies treats phonology, decipherment, literature and religion.

Nix voi ottaa monta muotoa. Nathan Hillin romaanissa se on mitä vain tärkeää ja rakasta, mikä katoaa yhtäkkiä ja vie palan sydäntä mukanaan. Samuel Andresen-Andersonille se on hänen äitinsä Faye, jota Samuel ei ole nähnyt sen jälkeen kun tämä hylkäsi hänet pienenä. Yhtäkkiä äiti päätyy uutisiin, mutta median maalaama kuva hänestä - radikaali ex-hippi - ei vastaa alkuunkaan Samuelin näkemystä. Kenen versio on tosi?Alkaa tutkimusmatka, joka paljastaa äidin salatun menneisyyden mutta asettaa myös pojan elämän uuteen valoon.
