Beschreibung

In "Yellow Butterflies," Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews weaves a poignant narrative that explores themes of loss, resilience, and the delicate interplay between hope and despair. Set against the backdrop of an unnamed small town, the novel captures the essence of human relationships and the transformative power of nature. Andrews employs a lyrical prose style, richly imbued with vivid imagery and emotional depth, reminiscent of early 20th-century American realism, which invites readers to contemplate the stark realities of life while embracing the beauty that persists even in the darkest times. Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews, a prominent figure of her era, possessed a keen insight into the complexities of human emotion, likely influenced by her own experiences as a writer and a woman navigating a male-dominated literary landscape. Her background in journalism and her commitment to social issues are reflected in the narrative's rich character development and her ability to evoke empathy. Andrews' unique perspective allows her to bring to life relatable characters who grapple with their inner demons while seeking solace in both love and nature. For readers seeking a reflective and heartfelt exploration of life's challenges, "Yellow Butterflies" is an essential addition to the literary canon. Andrews' lyrical storytelling not only captures the trials of her characters but also encourages a deeper understanding of one'Äôs own journey, making it a recommended read for anyone interested in the profound connections between humanity and the natural world.

Wernher von Braun, reluctant Nazi, personal friend of President Lyndon Johnson, and master builder of the Saturn V rocket, is on the verge of seeing his lifelong dream fulfilled as he joins to the crew of Apollo XX on mankind’s last visit to the Moon. All his life has been a struggle to get to this moment: surviving Allied bombing, uncomfortable accommodations with the SS, anti-German sentiment in post-war America, and the march of time itself—is he finally just too old to join the astronaut corps? On the moon, von Braun will reach the pinnacle of his professional life but there he also desperately hopes to exorcise demons from his past. 
Landing men on the moon? Why bother? And, precariously, inside the bowels of Copernicus crater? Crazy? Impossible? And the men and women dedicated to this exploit? What to call them but Lunatics. 
Two other voices play large roles in telling von Braun’s story: Mission Commander, Alan Bean, the only artist among the corps who hopes to capture the true essence of what it means to step on the moon. What it really looks like, feels like. Because if he doesn’t do it, who ever will? 
  
The final voice belongs to fellow astronaut, Deke Slayton, a no-nonsense test pilot interested in neither science nor art. His mantra during the mission will be “don’t screw up”.
