Ash is het gewend om klappen te incasseren op het veld voor zijn footballteam – tot hij er één incasseert die niet alleen invloed heeft op zijn lichaam, maar op zijn hele realiteit. Het begint met een kleine verandering, maar al snel wordt duidelijk dat Ash na elke wedstrijd naar een ander universum gekatapulteerd wordt. Gaandeweg veroorzaken de veranderingen in de werkelijkheid ook belangrijke veranderingen in Ash’ eigen identiteit. Terwijl Ash het leven vanuit andere perspectieven ervaart, begint hij steeds meer aan de wereld te twijfelen. Hij krijgt een spoedcursus racisme, seksisme, homofobie en privilege door een reeks wereldschokkende gebeurtenissen die hem harder zullen raken dan zijn eigen tackles op het voetbalveld.

This study of Joseph Conrad's influential work "Heart of Darkness" presents for the first time the German-language reception of this reference text in the debate on postcolonialism. The spectrum ranges from Conrad's contemporaries (like Kafka) to many canonical authors of the 20th century (including Thomas Mann, Ernst Jünger, Christa Wolf) to the most recent names in literature (i.e. Christian Kracht and Lukas Bärfuss). Beyond the readings of their works, the study contributes to the study of cultural transfers as well as to Conrad philology, and it expands the theory of intertextuality with parameters that capture the complex factor of power in postcolonial relations. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. The author (with the friendly support of Joe Kroll) has subsequently revised the text further in an endeavour to refine the work stylistically. "Lorenz’s meticulous analyses are immensely stimulating and productive." (Journal of European Studies) Matthias N. Lorenz is Professor of German and Comparative literature at Leibniz Universität Hannover (Germany) and Extraordinary Professor at Stellenbosch University (South Africa). He led two Swiss National Science Foundation projects on ruptures and continuities in Group 47 and on the phenomenon of disruption in the work of Christian Kracht and he is part of a Volkswagen Foundation research group on doing memory of right-wing violence.
