Eine Nacht In Annwn: Die Seltsame Geschichte Der NTE Des Alten Willy Jones

Geschrieben von Owen Jones

Erzählt von Kai Seuthe

Annwn ist das alte Walisische Wort für ”Himmel” und wird, ähnlich wie Valhalla, unterirdisch verortet. Der Roman erzählt die Geschichte von Willy, einem alten Walisischen Schafhirten, der sich nach dem Tod seiner geliebten Frau hat gehen lassen. Eines Tages während eines Spaziergangs stirbt seine alte Hündin und Willy bricht aufgrund eines durch Trauer und Schock hervorgerufenen Herzinfarkts zusammen, obwohl er schon lange keinen Lebenswillenmehr verspürt hatte.

Dennoch wacht er im Krankenhaus auf und versucht zu verstehen, was passiert ist. Nach kurzer Zeit stellt er fest, dass die junge Krankenschwester seine verstorbene Frau Sarah ist, und ihm dämmert, dass er gestorben sein muss. Das jedoch stört ihn nicht; ganz im Gegenteil, er ist überglücklich.

Owen Jones

Author Owen Jones, from Barry, South Wales, came to writing novels relatively recently, although he has been writing all his adult life. He has lived and worked in several countries and travelled in many, many more. He speaks, or has spoken, seven languages fluently and is currently learning Thai, since he lived in Thailand with his Thai wife of ten years. "It has never taken me long to learn a language," he says, "but Thai bears no relationship to any other language I have ever studied before." When asked about his style of writing, he said, "I'm a Celt, and we are Romantic. I believe in reincarnation and lots more besides in that vein. Those beliefs, like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around', Fate and Karma are central to my life, so they are reflected in my work'. His first novel, 'Daddy's Hobby' from the series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya' has become the classic novel on Pattaya bar girls and has been followed by six sequels. However, his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a young teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. After fifteen years of travelling, Owen and his wife are now back in his home town. He sums up his style as: "I write about what I see... or think I see... or dream... and in the end, it's all the same really..."
