Seit fünf Jahrzehnten dominiert Stephen King das literarische Erzählen und mit Billy Summers wandert dieser einzigartige Autor weiter auf jenem Pfad, der schon länger vorhanden ist, den er aber mit "Mr. Mercedes" eindeutig eingeschlagen hat. Musik: Kevin MacLeod.
In einer begeisterten Rezension schrieb John Dugdale von der Sunday Times: "Diszipliniert, aber abenteuerlich, gleichermaßen gut in Actionszenen und tiefgründiger Psychologie, zeigt King mit diesem Roman, dass er mit 73 Jahren ein Schriftsteller ist, der wieder auf der Höhe seines Könnens agiert."

The Messiah came to us as a baby, and was the most important gift to humankind. Pastor Billy inspires us to discover the mystery of The Baby King.
Das Buch war fesselnd, intelligent und einfach grandios. Ich habe mir post lectio frustriert gegen das Cranium geschlagen und gefragt: wie präjudiziert kann man durch die Welt laufen. Seitdem benutze ich keine Fremdwörter mehr und bin frei von Vorurteilen.Aber, ich muß nicht jeden Stephen King lesen, speziell mit den übernatürlichen Klassikern (und Neuwerken) kann ich noch immer wenig anfangen, aber Sachen wie die “Mr. Mercedes”-Reihe sind gelungener Zeitvertreib mit immer etwas mehr Tiefe, als man zu Beginn vermutet. Teil Zwei und Drei dieser Serie hatte ich mit etwas mehr Pflichtbewusstsein denn Enthusiasmus gelesen, um so mehr erfreute mich die flüchtig überlesene Schlagzeile in einer renommierten Tageszeitung, dass der neueste Stephen King mit dem unprätentiösen Titel "Billy Summers" sein "bestes Buch seit Jahren" sei.Stephen King führt seinen titelgebenden Hauptheld Billy Summers als einen Émile Zola lesenden Auftragskiller ein. Seinen Auftraggebern gegenüber geriert er sich als eher schlicht, das hatte sich irgendwann mal so ergeben und als praktisch erwiesen. In einem Comic lesend wartet er also in einer Hotelhalle auf seinen Kontakt, äußerlich den Simpleton gebend, nicht übertrieben, aber überzeugend. Billy Summers, Anfang 40, ist ein Ex-Marine und Irakkriegsveteran, war dort ein Sniper und kam mit ein paar Orden und ohne einen halben großen Zeh zurück. Damit hatte er eine Menge Glück gehabt, was auch damit zu tun hat, dass er sein Handwerk versteht. Das erste Bild, das nicht nur vor meinem lesenden Auge entstehen wird, ist das von Thriller-Serienheld Jack Reacher. Nein, nicht der durch hochkomplexe Kameraarbeit auf Format gefilmte halbe Hahn Tom Cruise. Der richtige Jack Reacher, der für mich immer seinem Autorenvater Lee Child am ähnlichsten sein wird, groß, hager, mit einem schmalen, stählernen Lächeln. Wie Jack Reacher also hat auch Billy Summers keine großen Bauchschmerzen, seiner Arbeit nachzugehen und dabei Leichen zu hinterlassen, aber stets mit einem moralischen Code, der simpel sagt: "Ich töte nur böse Menschen." Wie einfach das ist, können wir uns vorstellen und wird natürlich ein roter Faden im Buch sein.Wir werden lernen, dass Billy Summers sehr zeitig im Leben getötet hat. Er musste im Alter von elf Jahren mit ansehen, wie der Abschaum von einem Freund seiner drogensüchtigen Mutter eines Abends in ihr Haus kommt und seine kleine Schwester zu Tode tritt. Billy kann sich nur in letzter Not und mit Hilfe des Armeerevolvers des Arschlochs retten, der - zum Glück, Amerika! - im Haus einfach so rum liegt. Er schießt dem Dreckskerl in den Bauch und lässt ihn verbluten. Diese Szene wird ihn und uns begleiten. Es ist ein Buch der Rückblenden und: Es ist ein Kunstwerk.Zunächst jedoch finden wir Billy Summers in einem kleinen Kaff in Kentucky. Er ist hier um einen letzten großen Auftrag angeboten zu bekommen. Der wird so lukrativ sein, dass er sich zur Ruhe setzen kann. Ihm ist nicht ganz wohl dabei, denn nicht nur er weiß, dass das schief gehen kann, dass das der Stoff ist, aus dem Filme und Bücher gemacht werden.Billy Summers sitzt also in einer Hotellobby und liest Comic. Ein alter Bekannter aus der Unterwelt hat einen Auftrag: eine halbe Millionen jetzt, anderthalb Millionen nach getaner Arbeit. Wenn er zustimmt, wird er beauftragt, einen Auftragskiller zu killen. Billy stellt die obligatorische Frage und ja, das Target ist kein guter Mensch. Neben den dutzenden Auftragsmorden, bei denen Billy jetzt nicht in der besten Position ist pro oder contra, gut oder böse zu argumentieren, hat der Auftragsmörder letztens zwei Leute nach einem Pokerspiel abgeknallt, weil sie gegen ihn gewonnen haben, was ja wirklich unsportlich ist. Billy sagt ok, eine halbe Minute später hat er $500.000 auf einem Nummernkonto in der Karibik.Billy ist beauftragt, es wird ein Plan geschmiedet. Ein schmieriger Immobilienbesitzer hat einen Büroturm genau gegenüber dem Gerichtsgebäude, wo dem Auftragskiller der Prozess gemacht werden wird, mit idealer Sicht auf den Eingang, durch den er TV-wirksam vom Sheriff mit dem übergroßem Cowboyhut im orangen Einteiler und mit Hand- und Fußfesseln vorgeführt werden wird. Einziges Problem: keiner weiß wann. Es wird noch mindestens ein paar Wochen, vielleicht Monate dauern, bis der Angeklagte aus Kalifornien ausgeliefert wird. Billy muss also warten, und damit er einen plausiblen Grund hat hier zu sein, wird die Legende gebaut, nach der Billy Summers ein Schriftsteller von der Ostküste sei, der mit seinem Buch nicht fertig wird und von seinem Agenten in den Schreiburlaub dahin geschickt wird, wo er nicht den ganzen Tag den Vorschuss verhuren und versaufen kann. Man mietet ihm ein beschauliches Wohnhaus in den suburbs, dazu das ideale Eckbüro mit Sicht auf das Gerichtsgebäude und gibt ihm ein MacBook, auf dem er "irgendwas schreiben" soll, um in die Rolle zu kommen.Diese leicht sperrige Konstellation ist ganz, ganz eventuell das einzige, was man dem Buch vorwerfen kann, mir fallen ein halbes Dutzend Wege ein, das Ganze mit deutlich weniger Aufwand durchzuziehen; andererseits, was weiß ich schon, ich bin schließlich kein Auftragsmörder. Oder vielleicht doch?!Egal, denn dieses Setting, womit wir uns übrigens von der konkreten Handlung verabschieden, keine Spoiler mehr ab hier, Rezensentenehrenwort, diese Konstruktion also, ist wohl und sehr bewusst gewählt denn es ist der Grund, warum wir hier einen Stephen King besprechen. Wie jeder weiß, ist das überflüssig. Die-hard-Fans von Stephen King lesen das Buch eh und Leute, für die Stephen King unter Niveau ist, Leute mit Vorurteilen also, lesen noch nicht mal diese Rezension. Unvorstellbar.Dass Stephen-King-Bücher immer etwas tiefer sind als man denkt weiß ja jeder, "Billy Summers" jedoch ist viel mehr geworden: es ist ein praktisches Lehrbuch der Schriftstellerei in der Form eines Thriller. Es würde Pflichtmaterial für die Verwendung an belletristischen Hochschulen werden, wenn es diese denn gäbe. Stephen King packt alles, was er als Schriftsteller über den Prozess, das Denken und Arbeiten weiss und dann noch ein paar Sachen Extra in einen Krimi und schafft ein "Vermächtnis", wenn so ein Wort denn zu Stephen King passen würde und nicht zu endgültig klänge. Stephen King wird eine Buchlänge lang zum Autoren für Autoren.Alles beginnt mit der Struktur: Während Billy Summers, der Killer, in seiner Tarnung als Schriftsteller auf den Anruf wartet, dass sein Opfer auf dem Weg ist, denkt er sich, kann er auch ein bisschen schreiben. Wie man liest weiss er, wie schwer kann schreiben sein? (Das ist im subtext natürlich auch ein Hinweis an jeden Leser und potentiellen Schriftsteller). Erlebt hat Billy Summers genug: von der Horrorkindheit über seine Zeit im Waisenhaus, seine Ausbildung bei den Marines, die Horrorzeit im Irak bis zum Karrierewechsel vom staatlichen zum privatwirtschaftlichen Auftragskiller. Also setzt er sich an den ihm zur Tarnung gestellten Notebook und schreibt über seine Kindheit. Da er (zutreffend) annimmt, dass alles, was er schreibt von seinen Auftraggebern mitgelesen wird und diesen ihn als Simpleton kennen, übt er sich im Stil eines solchen und schreibt aus der Perspektive und in der Sprache des elfjährigen Billys. Dabei zeigt Stephen King im Buch die Fehler und Fehlversuche, die man unweigerlich beim Schreiben macht, und beginnt Kapitel zum Beispiel in "verbesserter" Kindersprache von neuem, wie ein A/B Test. Wir lesen, typographisch durch serifenlose Abschnitte abgesetzt, die wahre Geschichte des Billy Summers. Wir lesen im einfachen Stil von seiner Kindheit und von seiner Zeit im Waisenhaus.Als er sich in der Haupthandlung, dem Thriller "Billy Summers", zuverlässig von der Überwachung durch seine Auftraggeber befreien kann, kommt er zum zutreffenden Gedanken, dass er über die Erlebnisse als Soldat in Fallujah, Irak, in seiner eigenen Sprache berichten kann und sollte und wir lesen seitenlange fesselnde Einschübe aus dem alternativen "Billy Summers", die Geschichte von persönlichen Fuckups in einem abgefuckten Krieg. Dabei greift Stephen King auf ein Buch mit Namen "No True Glory" von Bing West zurück, welches er im Nachwort erwähnt und empfiehlt, womit King dem unsicheren Autoren demonstriert, dass man nicht alles selbst erlebt haben muss und wie man fremde Quellen in seinen eigenen Sound transponiert.Da Stephen King Billy Summers, den Schriftsteller, die Geschichte seiner Entwicklung zum Billy Summers, den Auftragskiller schreiben lässt, vereinigen sich diese beiden Stories, je näher sich Präteritum und Präsens kommen. Dass es kompliziert werden kann, wenn sich Fiktion und Fiktion in der Fiktion nähern und dass dabei strukturell sauber gearbeitet werden muss, lässt King dann innerhalb der Story die Protagonisten besprechen, was in einer letzten Wendung des Romans geschieht. Es ist erstaunlich und brillant.Weit vorher jedoch, in einer sehr überraschenden Wendung, wird - sehr dramatisch - eine einundzwanzigjährige Studentin in die Story eingeführt. Überraschend nicht nur für die Handlung, sondern weil Stephen King sich damit völlig ohne narrativen Zwang in die Situation begibt, das Verhältnis des Mittvierzigers Billy Summers zur blutjungen Alice bis zum Ende des Buches zu untersuchen und zu beschreiben, etwas, was sich in unseren woken Zeiten fast nur noch ein Stephen King ohne Angst um die Karriere leisten kann. Er schreckt dabei vor keinem Topic zurück: ob Liebe, Hass, Vergewaltigung, Pädophilie, männliche Physiognomie; jeden potentiellen Absturz von der argumentativen Klippe meistert er mit tiefem Mitgefühl für den toxischen s**t, den die meisten Frauen in ihrem Leben oft nicht nur einmal erleben müssen, und klingt dabei nie wie eine #metoo timeline auf Twitter. Er spricht ein "kompliziertes" Thema nach dem anderen an, organisch innerhalb der Haupthandlung, und meistert es mit Bravour und voller Zärtlichkeit, mit fast surreal-traumwandlerischer Sicherheit. Man hält oft genug den Atem an, ob Stephen King die Kurve bekommt oder über die Cancelklippe springt - und wird jedesmal erlöst. Ich bin sicher, dass mir das gesamte Internet da zustimmt und denke nicht, dass ich das groß googlen muss.Und wie ein Mittelfingerzeig dem "ernsthaften" Literaturbetrieb (und weil er es kann) schafft er es am Ende eines strukturell wie thematisch seriösen Werkes selbst aus dem zynischsten Literaturkritiker eine Träne auf's Papier zu wringen in einem sich twistenden und windenden Ende, welches dennoch keine Seite zu lang ist.Stephen King erweist sich mal wieder als der Meister der überraschenden Wendung und hat einen Roman geschrieben, der in der Rezension konstruiert erscheinen mag, beim tatsächlichen Lesen jedoch fließt und pageturned wie man es vom Autor kennt und erwartet. Ich, der ich meine Bücher gerne geradlinig habe, Rückblenden eher skeptisch gegenüberstehe (und meinen Hass gegenüber der Vorblende hier oft genug geäußert habe), dem Bücher in Büchern höchst suspekt sind und der Bücher "Aus dem Leben eines Schriftstellers" für eitle Eigenbauchmiezelei halte, stehe baff erstaunt vor einem Werk, welches alle diese No-Gos enthält, dazu reihenweise Verweise und Anspielungen auf andere Werke der Literaturgeschichte und bestimmt ein halbes Dutzend derer auf das eigene Oeuvre und die ich alle nicht verstanden habe. Und dennoch ist "Billy Summers" einfach "nur" ein spannender Thriller, von einem Autor, der sich Gedanken macht über unsere Zeit, der reflektiert über die human condition und dabei keine Seite Langeweile aufkommen lässt. Denn Stephen King ist ein Meister seines Faches, wie ich schon immer empathisch gesagt habe. Weiß jede.In der nächsten Woche im Studio B bespricht Anne Findeisen Rosie Price' Debütroman "Der rote Faden", der bereits 2020 veröffentlicht wurde, uns thematisch an Irmgard Lumpinis zuletzt besprochenen Roman "That Summer" von Jennifer Weiner erinnert und bereits kurz nach Veröffentlichung zur Post-"Me too" Literatur avanciert ist.

This week I thought I would talk about the 12th in this podcast. When I mentioned a few days ago to some friends that I was going to do this podcast about the 12th and asked them what they thought if I sang a few Orange songs, the answer was no. And that's understandable. Some of these songs are very sectarian, are about hatred and are not acceptable. I first came across Orange songs way back in the day when I came across the writings of Richard Hayward. He wrote a number of books about Ireland, about Irish folklore, about Ulster – its nine counties – and I still remain very fond of his writings. And that's where I came across The Sash.It is old but it is beautiful, and its colours they are fine It was worn at Derry, Aughrim, Enniskillen and the Boyne. My father wore it as a youth in bygone days of yore, And on the Twelfth, I love to wear the sash my father wore. Anyone offended by that, either by my singing or my singing this song? Apologies in advance.The Orange marches have to have a place in the Ireland of the future. The Orange is one of our national colours – the tradition of Orangeism is not one that many of us will appreciate but it's there none the less and on the basis of equality we have to make space for all of this. At the same time there can be no space for hatred or incitement to hatred.But let's just look at some of the facts around the 12 July. The Battle of the Boyne was actually held on 1 July 1690. It was part of a wider European war. They just used Ireland – King Billy and the Pope on the one side and King James and the King of France – as one of the sites of their war. The Pope, Innocent X1 supported the Dutchman King William after the English parliament sacked King James and invited William to take his job. The Pope paid part of King Billy's expenses and when news of his victory at the Boyne reached Rome a Te Deum was sung in the Vatican in celebration.The twelfth celebrations have little to do with religion though many Orange men and women are both religious and decent. Others infamously are not. They know the Twelfth is about power and domination. In its day the Orange Order was the backbone of unionism. Most business people, almost every unionist politician, Judges and senior RUC officers were members one of the Loyal Orders – The Orange Order – the largest - the Apprentice Boys, or the Royal Black Preceptory. It was essential in the control of the political system, the gerrymandering of electoral boundaries, and the domination by the Ulster Unionist Party of the North for over 50 years. The Orange Order was essential to the control that party exerted. It facilitated structured sectarian political and economic discrimination against nationalists and Catholics. It's not for nothing that the North of Ireland is known by nationalists as the Orange State.And even to this day, and I have spoken to many Orangemen over the years and had good relationships with them, and enjoy those relationships yet, it's still a matter of deep regret that the leadership of the Orange Order will not meet with the President of Sinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald in the same way that they refused to meet with me. The Orange Order was founded by the English and Protestant ascendancy in Ireland in the 1790s as a counter to the United Irish Society which was seeking independence from England. Its purpose was to defend England's colonial presence and interests in Ireland and to divide people. Its fortunes waned through much of the early p

In this show, notice I play the original Only You by the Platters, but it isn't the one we've known all along. The one you know well was released shortly afterwards on another label - Mercury if my memory doesn't fade. People like the Mercury version instead, but I like both.
Cody goes to the Australian Archery Museum and speaks with founder Ian Fenton. Ian shares stories of Australia's archery history and the important people who got the sport to where it is today. They also discuss the story of the medals and why they were created and the importance of these special awards. Ian also shares the story of the boar known as "King Billy" and how he hunted him. The Australian Archery Museum couldn't have been done without the love and encouragement of Roma Fenton. Thanks to her support Ian has been able to put together this incredible collection of australian archery history. The Awards are held on June the 16th at 11am in the Bathurst R.S.L club. I highly encourage all archers and hunters to come and support this amazing piece of our history as lovers of the great outdoors. Visit Australian Archery Museum on facebook

Very few comedians have made an impression on the Aboriginal community in the way King Billy Cokebottle has. From radio to pubs to nightclubs, King Billy was one of Australia’s most established and renowned underground comedians. But that all changed when an 18C claim was brought against him. This is the story of a comedian, an activist and a mudcrab, and is one of the few 18C cases to successfully use the exemptions of 18D.

Steve and Alan are back after a bit of a break with a brand new Forever Forest Podcast. A lot's changed in 2 weeks, but also a lot remains worryingly similar. Forest are still fairly dull on the pitch, but remain a talking point off it - we get ourselves tucked in to all things Forest and ask the question 'Why didn't King Billy get the Lifetime Achievement Award?'

It was never meant to be like this: we were going to have a meet-up with some Patrons (and associated freeloaders), then retire to a room after closing time to have a private podcast in a lovely shut pub. Instead, we got so excited that we ended up doing a spontaneous live show. So here is Episode 100, in all its hastily rewired and hard-to-fathom majesty - LIVE from the Darts Room of The King Billy pub on Manvers Street, Nottingham! Matt pores over our early Google Hangouts from 2011, Steve relives a feature that was lost, back in the day when we regularly deleted podcasts, Gav finds out how much we've learned about each other on our long and gruelling journey to 100, and Log reads through the titles of all 100 Police Academy movies.
