About this deal

Of The Schwa Was Here, School Library Journal wrote: “Shusterman's characters–reminiscent of those crafted by E. L. Konigsburg and Jerry Spinelli–are infused with the kind of controlled, precocious improbability that magically vivifies the finest children's classics. Bis jetzt hört sich das einfach an wie ein normaler Fantasy-Thriller, oder? Allerdings wäre das kein Buch von Neal Shusterman, wenn es nicht gleichzeitig um sehr ernste Themen ginge. Es geht hier um Privilegien, die man sich oft gar nicht bewusst ist, wenn man sie hat. Ich meine: Ich denke kaum darüber nach, dass ich weiß bin. Meine Hautfarbe spielt in meinem Leben keine Rolle. Gleichzeitig aber doch, denn sie bewahrt mich vor Problemen und Diskriminierung. Und Ash ist da ziemlich ähnlich. In der Theorie weiß er, dass er privilegiert ist. Aber so richtig bewusst wird ihm das erst im Laufe der Handlung. a b c d Zeleny, Jeff (January 9, 2010). "2008 Campaign, All Over Again in New Book". The New York Times . Retrieved January 9, 2010.

Ash nimmt nämlich, wenn er so erzählt, kein Blatt vor den Mund und nennt die Dinge beim Namen. Das fand ich sehr gut, denn manchmal weiß man ja schon gar nicht mehr, was man sagen darf und was nicht.

Hace tiempo que no leía nada de Neal Shusterman desde que leí Siega y El Abismo, y la verdad es que me apetecía leer algo nuevo del autor. Cuando vi que Nocturna publicaba su nuevo libro y que trataba de universos alternativos, un tema que me fascina, no me lo pensé dos veces. Es gibt Entscheidungen, die wir treffen, Entscheidungen, die für uns getroffen werden, und Dinge, die wir so lange ignorieren, bis es ohnehin keine Wahl mehr gibt.“ (S. 12)

Candid, brash and rash – this book will remain in the news and headlines for quite some time to come. He explicitly told about the difficulties & obstacles which he faced not only on the streets of Karachi but in his own house as well, in the early days of his career. The icing on cake was his short temperament. As we all know that its not an easy task to handle & cool down a Pathan's blood 😀 Wolfe, Alan (January 17, 2010). "Book review of 'Game Change' by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin". The Washington Post . Retrieved February 14, 2010. All of that said, this is still an important part of poly history and culture. Polyamory is not always easy or simple or beautiful or free of jealousy or bitterness for everyone. For a lot of people it will take them years to express their polyamory in healthy and fulfilling ways. This memoir is a wonderful reminder for me that these tragic and painful experiences do exist in the larger poly community. And if someone can read about it and have it be a game changer in their life then it's done it's job. I haven't escaped pain in my life, nor would I want to, because pain I've discovered presents a hidden path for growth, to a land where you discover new horizons and limitless possibilities. But as those of us who practice polyamory know, those paths are still unbeaten, still painful. Worse still, it is not only about the pain that you create for yourself, it is also about the pain you inflict on others. Terrible, emotional pain.I have a question,” she said one evening. “You say you love having other people in your life. Why don’t you value their agency?”
