About the Book

"Ich glaube“, sagt Peter Bichsel, „der Sinn der Literatur liegt nicht darin, daß Inhalte vermittelt werden, sondern darin, daß das Erzahlen aufrechterhalten wird. Weil die Menschen Geschichten brauchen., um uberleben zu konnen. Sie brauchen Modelle, mit denen sie sich ihr eigenes Leben erzahlen konnen. Nur das Leben, das man sich selbst erzahlen kann, ist ein sinnvolles Leben.“ Und: „Ich mochte der Geschichte die Geschichten entgegensetzen.“ Die Welt des Peter Bichsel - und damit auch die Welt seiner Geschichten in Zur Stadt Paris - ist nie gegeben, d.h. definiert und eindeutig, sondern immer offen und einladend fur jeden, der Phantasie des Autors und dazu der eigenen zu folgen, um in der Vielfalt des Lebens nach Liebe, Hoffnung und Geborgenheit zu suchen. Peter Bichsel deutet bei alledem, was ihm wie zufallig zu jeder Tag- und Nachtzeit begegnet, auf Welten, in denen es nichts gibt, was dem Menschen fremd ware. Und so ersinnt, erfindet und erzahlt er von Biographien, die unwahrscheinlich und wahr zugleich sind: Also treffen wir in Bichsels Zur Stadt Paris den Triefaugigen mit dem goldenen Handchen ebenso wie Albert Weisshaupt, der eine fatale Neigung zum Weinen hat, oder Erwin, den die Stammtischbruder fur einen Hochstapler halten, wie auch den alten Geiger Zingg oder die noch junge Frau, die mit drei Kindern, ihrem Mann und ohne Blinddarm „im ganzen uberhaupt nicht unglucklich“ in der Nahe von Rom lebt. Dabei haben Bichsels Personen eine Eigenschaft, fur die man sie sofort mag: Sie strahlen Warme aus, weil sie alle von ihrem Autor geliebt werden - seien es Fabrikanten, Fußballer oder einfach nur arme Tropfe, Betrunkene, ganz Nuchterne, Dummkopfe oder Schlauberger, Kinder, altliche Witwen oder Eskimos in New York. Mit Zur Stadt Paris ist Peter Bichsel ein Geschichtenbuch gelungen, das uns Lesern - mal in kurzen Zugen, dann wieder mit langerem Atem - davon erzahlt, daß es gerade das Kleine, das Minimale, das unscheinbar vor Augen liegende ist, das uns, beobachtet man es genau oder laßt es einfach sprechen, alles uber uns verrat. „Der Lebenslangliche, befragt, wie er das aushalte oder mache all diese Jahre im Gefangnis, antwortet: Weißt du, ich sage mir immer, diese Zeit, die ich hier verbringe, mußte ich draußen auch verbringen."
