Summary

Eine Familie zwischen den Welten und zwischen den Zeiten: Junot Díaz erzählt von dem liebenswürdigen Nerd Oscar und seiner toughen Schwester Lola. Beide sind in New Jersey groß geworden, aber ihre Wurzeln liegen in der Karibik. Und dorthin verschlägt es sie immer wieder, wenn das Leben das mühsam zusammengekratzte Glück gerade wieder einmal wegwischt. Hier finden sie im Haus der Großtante Zuflucht - genauso wie ihre Mutter vor vielen Jahren, von deren düsterer Vergangenheit sie allerdings nichts ahnen. Dabei wirkt sie wie ein Fluch. In einem letzten, verzweifelten Akt riskiert Oscar eines Tages alles für sein Glück. Den Fluch zu bannen wird sein letztes Abenteuer.
