Kartonierte illustrierte und glanzfolienkaschierte Broschur. Der Einband leicht berieben, Schnitte und Papier etwas nachgedunkelt, makulierter Namenszug auf Vortitel, ansonsten guter Erhaltungszustand. "In seinem Erstlingsroman greift Steven Bauer ein altes Märchenmotiv auf, den gestohlenen Mond, vermischt jedoch diese Fabel mit dem durchaus politischen Thema der Diktatur des Einzelnen, der totalitären Staatsform, dazu mit Hinweisen auf den Untergang der Menschheit symbolisiert in der Einsperrung der wenigen Überlebenden in der Veste, und auf die Möglichkeit der Entmachtung des Herrschers durch die Solidarität der Unterdrückten, vereint mit den Helfern von außen. Trotzdem ist das Buch keine Allegorie, sondern ein poetisch geschriebenes, erregendes Abenteuer, dessen Ober- und Untertöne sich bei wiederholter Lektüre mehr und mehr erschließen. Interessant ist, daß sowohl in der angedeuteten Liebesgeschichte von Vera (in Nymphengestalt) und Mattes als auch in der Beziehung zwischen dem Satyr und seinem Pflegesohn jede Sentimentalität fehlt, und daß auch die Tiergemeinschaft in Verhalten und Sprache ohne jede Niedlichkeiten auskommt. Auch das fantasy-traditionelle Happy-End ist in die Zukunft verschoben: Derin kehrt nicht zu den Menschen zurück, auch wenn er sich eine zukünftige Gefährtin von ihnen mitbringt. Über den Autor: Der junge Amerikaner Steven Bauer ist Absolvent der Universität von Amherst, Massachusetts/ USA, und veröffentlichte bisher vor allem Gedichte. "Satyrtag" ist sein erster Roman und hat das Zeug zu einem Klassiker des Phantastischen. Steven Bauer ist Dozent für Englisch und Creative Writing an einem College in Maine/ USA." (Verlagstext) Verena C. Harksen (* 17. Mai 1942 in Berlin; gebürtig Verena Charlotte Wussow) ist eine deutsche Übersetzerin, Herausgeberin und Schriftstellerin.
