Eine junge Frau bezieht ein winziges Zimmerchen im heruntergekommenen Morningside Heights. Das Jahr ist 1979, und S.H. kommt direkt aus der amerikanischen Provinz; daher ihr Spitzname: "Minnesota". Das wilde New York lockt, und sie, die Schriftstellerin werden will, genießt den Schmutz wie den Glanz, das turbulente Leben wie die Einsamkeit. Alles Neue saugt sie begierig in sich auf. So auch, durch die papierdünnen Wände zur Nachbarwohnung, die oft skurrilen Monologe und gesungenen Mantras ihrer Nachbarin: Lucy Brite, liest sie auf dem Klingelschild. Doch mit der Zeit wünscht sie, sie hätte nicht so genau hingehört. Immer dringlicher werden Lucys Gesänge, immer klagender. Von Misshandlung ist die Rede, von Gefangenschaft, von Kindstod, ja von Mord. Nach und nach wird die Nachbarin zu einer immer schrecklicheren Obsession. Bis eines Nachts ein dramatisches Ereignis in Minnesotas Wohnung Lucy Brite in Person auf den Plan ruft - und nun beginnt ein Geheimnis sich zu lüften... Vierzig Jahre später erzählt die gealterte S.H., inzwischen eine anerkannte Schriftstellerin und Wissenschaftlerin, was davor und danach geschah: erzählt von Frauensolidarität und Männerwahn, von Liebe und Geschlechterkampf, von Gewalt und Versöhnung. Erzählt aber auch vom Mysterium der Zeit, von Erinnerung und Phantasie, von der Art und Weise, wie alles im Leben zu Geschichten wird, erzählt vom Erzählen. Und das mit einer unbändigen Lust daran, die uns wünschen lässt, das Buch wäre nie zu Ende.

Opener leaves wire threads on the rim of the can when opening. Poses a danger if ingested.
Color: Orange
Purchased this item hoping it would make opening cans easier (I have osteoarthritis in my hands). First time I tried it, after it rounded the lid of a can of DelMonte green beans, nothing. I reseated it, and held it down when it started. It opened the can after circling the top two times. When I took the lid off the can, there were tiny wire "threads" stuck on the can, and more stuck on the Kitchen Mama opener. I was able to very carefully wipe the wire threads off and pour the can of beans into my pan. HOWEVER, I will not use this product again. Who wants to run the risk of ingesting wire threads?!!! I would return the product for a refund, but my husband destroyed the box opening it, so this will go into the garbage. I wouldn't sell at a garage sale or donate it, because someone else might ingest the wire threads, and then Kitchen Mama would have a lawsuit on their hands I wouldn't have given ANY stars, but you have to give at least one to write a review.

All Promise, No Performance
Color: Orange
***** Update: I wanted to add that Kitchen Mama’s customer service was genuinely great. They followed up, honored the warranty, and sent me a replacement even though I couldn’t provide photos at the time. The replacement works perfectly and the experience was way less stressful than I expected. **** Original Review: I just needed a simple electric can opener because I have crippling pain in my hands and I can't use a manual one. I didn't expect anything fancy but for the one job this thing had it still really let me down. This thing is so slow it reminds me of my AOL days. And when it's done, it just... keeps going. When you turn it off it takes FOREVER to wind down. The first few times I tried yanking it off because I thought it was stuck. And then it fully died in under a year. But honestly maybe what bothers me the most of all is when I contacted customer support about the warranty replacement, I got an email back asking for photographic proof that my BATTERIES WERE IN CORRECTLY. Really? (A photo that I could not provide because it had broken days earlier and I threw it in the trash, who hoards broken appliances?). I really expected better from a ‘reputable’ brand.

Great opener
Color: Blue
Had a battery operated can opener before and was always changing the batteries. Love the safety cut and this works great now that I can just charge it with my phone charger. Fits in my drawer so no counter space used
