John Grisham, born in the year 1955, is one of the most widely read best-selling authors world-wide. He was a delegate in the parliament of the US State Mississippi and run his own law office till the middle of the Eighties. Since then he dedicated himself completely to writing. He lives with his family in Virginia and Mississippi.
After the first German Audio book of John Grisham Die Firma came out in 1995, there are meanwhile 12 German Audiobooks of John Grisham. In 2005 the newest masterpiece Die Begnadigung read by Charles Brauerals came out. Contentwise everything centres around the lobbyist Joel Backmann. Because of its dark past as a cold, inconsiderate and greedy economic criminal of America he sits behind bars. He wanted to sell a software system for the control of secret satellites, to which he had come with detours, to the highest bidder. After 6 of 20 years imprisonment he is surprisingly amnestied as the last official act of the retiring president of the United States. The CIA thereby would like to get further information about the software system. When Backmann is released, the previous potential customers will probably try to kill him and thereby betray themselves. If the Israelis, the Chinese, Saudis or the Russians are involved, remains unclear in the beginning. This hunt with many fronts takes place mainly in Bologna in Italy. One get to know much about the country and its people and gets a feeling for a vacation in Italy. In summary I can only recommend this Audiobook. As a further Audiobook recommendation I would like to point out Das Fest of John Grisham.
His 18 books and audiobooks in German and English are summarized in the following table:
