Miles hat die Schule gewechselt. Auf dem Internat verknallt er sich in die schöne Alaska. Sie ist das Zentrum ihres Sonnensystems, der magische Anziehungspunkt des Internats.

Alaska mag Lyrik, nächtliche Diskussionen über philosophische Absurditäten, heimliche Glimmstängel im Wald und die echte wahre Liebe. Miles ist fasziniert und überfordert zugleich. Dass hinter dieser verrückten, aufgekratzten Schale etwas Weiches und Verletzliches steckt, ist offensichtlich. Wer ist Alaska wirklich? Mit Anmut und Humor, voller Selbstironie und sehr charmant erzählt Green die zu Tränen rührende Geschichte von Miles, in dessen Leben die Liebe wie eine Bombe einschlägt. |
