Ze groeide op als dochter van twee wetenschappers — door haarzelf omschreven als \"deeply unconventional people from the beatnik generation\" — en verhuisde in 1979 met haar gezin naar San Francisco. Op haar zestiende begon ze aan een studie politieke economie aan UC Berkeley, met een focus op het Amerikaanse buitenlandbeleid in Latijns-Amerika. Op haar 26e schreef ze zich in voor het fictie-programma van Columbia University, waar ze in 2000 haar MFA in creative writing behaalde onder onder anderen Jonathan Franzen. Don DeLillo beschouwt ze als vriend en mentor.\n\nHaar debuut Telex from Cuba verscheen in 2008 bij Scribner. Het idee ontstond direct na haar MFA en kostte haar zes jaar werk, waarvoor ze drie langere reizen naar Cuba maakte — een land waar haar moeders familie voor de revolutie had gewoond. The New York Times Book Review wijdde er een coverrecensie aan en omschreef het boek als \"multi-layered and absorbing\". Telex from Cuba werd genomineerd voor de National Book Award 2008. Daarmee was Kushners positie als ambitieus literair stemgeluid meteen gevestigd.\n\nDe doorbraak kwam met haar tweede roman, in het Nederlands verschenen als De vlammenwerpers (Atlas Contact, 2014). Het boek speelt zich af in de New Yorkse kunstscene van de jaren zeventig en in het Italiaanse politieke ondergrondse milieu van diezelfde periode. James Wood prees het in The New Yorker als \"scintillatingly alive\" en roemde Kushners vermogen om verhalen, anekdotes en monologen aan elkaar te rijgen. The Flamethrowers haalde de shortlist van de National Book Award 2013 en stond op de jaarlijstjes van onder meer The New Yorker, Time en de Los Angeles Times. Kushners signatuur kristalliseerde uit: politiek geladen romans waarin geschiedenis, geweld en subculturen samenkomen, gedragen door een soepele, beeldende stijl.\n\nIn 2018 volgde The Mars Room, in het Nederlands uitgebracht als Club Mars (Atlas Contact, 2018), over een vrouw in een Californische gevangenis. Het boek werd genomineerd voor de Man Booker Prize. In 2021 verscheen de essaybundel The Hard Crowd: Essays 2000–2020. Haar meest recente roman, Creation Lake (2024), stond op de longlist en vervolgens shortlist van de Booker Prize en op de longlist van de National Book Award for Fiction. De Nederlandse vertaling Creation Lake verscheen eveneens in 2024.\n\nVoor Nederlandse lezers wordt Kushner uitgegeven door Atlas Contact, dat haar belangrijkste romans in vertaling beschikbaar maakt. Wie haar werk nog niet kent, kan het beste beginnen bij De vlammenwerpers: het is de roman waarmee haar reputatie werd gevestigd en waarin haar thematiek — politiek, kunst, vrouwelijke hoofdpersonen in mannelijke werelden — het scherpst samenkomt. Wie liever instapt bij haar recentste werk, leest Creation Lake, dat met de Booker-shortlist een internationaal publiek bereikte.",{"title":26,"description":27,"h1":5,"primary_keyword":28,"secondary_keywords":29,"tagline":35},"Rachel Kushner — Booker-genomineerd auteur | volgendboek.nl","Rachel Kushner schrijft literaire romans als De vlammenwerpers en Creation Lake.

Outside is the world from which she has been severed: her young son, Jackson, and the San Francisco of her youth. Inside is a new reality: thousands of women hustling for the bare essentials needed to survive; the bluffing and pageantry and casual acts of violence by guards and prisoners alike; and the deadpan absurdities of institutional living, portrayed with great humor and precision. Stunning and unsentimental, The Mars Room is “wholly authentic…profound…luminous” (The Wall Street Journal), “one of those books that enrage you even as they break your heart” (The New York Times Book Review, cover review)—a spectacularly compelling, heart-stopping novel about a life gone off the rails in contemporary America. It is audacious and tragic, propulsive and yet beautifully refined and “affirms Rachel Kushner as one of our best novelists” (Entertainment Weekly).",368,"en","1476756589","9781476756585","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=Zo2RDwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=Zo2RDwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=2&source=gbs_api",{"title":63,"subtitle":51,"authors":64,"publisher":65,"publishedDate":66,"description":67,"pageCount":68,"language":57,"isbn10":69,"isbn13":70,"thumbnail":71,"previewLink":72},"Creation Lake",[5],"Simon and Schuster","2025-07","\"'Sadie Smith' is how the narrator introduces herself to her lover, to the rural commune of French subversives on whom she is keeping tabs, and to the reader.

Young Everly Lederer and K.C. Stites come of age in Oriente Province, where the Americans tend their own fiefdom—three hundred thousand acres of United Fruit Company sugarcane that surround their gated enclave. If the rural tropics are a child's dreamworld, Everly and K.C. nevertheless have keen eyes for the indulgences and betrayals of the grown-ups around them—the mordant drinking and illicit loves, the race hierarchies and violence. In Havana, a thousand kilometers and a world away from the American colony, a cabaret dancer meets a French agitator named Christian de La Mazière, whose seductive demeanor can't mask his shameful past. Together they become enmeshed in the brewing political underground. When Fidel and Raúl Castro lead a revolt from the mountains above the cane plantation, torching the sugar and kidnapping a boat full of \"yanqui\" revelers, K.C. and Everly begin to discover the brutality that keeps the colony humming. Though their parents remain blissfully untouched by the forces of history, the children hear the whispers of what is to come. Kushner's first novel is a tour de force, haunting and compelling, with the urgency of a telex from a forgotten time and place.","1416561048","9781416561040","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=LGLnwAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=LGLnwAEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=11&source=gbs_api",{"title":63,"subtitle":39,"authors":154,"publishedDate":155,"pageCount":108,"language":44,"isbn10":156,"isbn13":157,"previewLink":158},[5],"2024","9025470920","9789025470920","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=48_h0AEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=12&source=gbs_api",{"title":160,"authors":161,"publisher":162,"publishedDate":163,"description":164,"pageCount":165,"language":166,"isbn10":167,"isbn13":168,"thumbnail":169,"previewLink":170},"Mars Room",[5],"Tammi","2025-10-02","Mars Room todistaa, että Rachel Kushner on aikamme parhaita kirjailijoita.

Kalifornia vuonna 2003. Romy Hallia odottaa kaksi elinkautista jättimäisessä naisvankilassa keskellä aavikkoa. Muurien ulkopuolelle jäävät työt strippiklubilla ja poika Jackson, jonka Romy ei halua joutuvan saman järjestelmän rattaisiin. Muurien sisällä vastassa on uusi todellisuus: tuhansien naisten joukko, joka tekee mitä on tarpeen pärjätäkseen päivästä toiseen, arkiset väkivallan teot, laitoselämän pienet ja suuret järjettömyydet. Romy ei sääli itseään eikä muita, mutta selvää on, ettei oikeus voita aina, jos koskaan. Kushner kuvaa vaikeista oloista ponnistavan naisen osaa ja kotimaansa vääjäämätöntä luisua jalustalta armotta ja varmoin ottein, terävän älyllisesti, mutta myötäeläen. ”Kushnerin proosa ritisee ja sähisee kuin vankilaa ympäröivä sähköaita, hänen havaintonsa ovat teräviä kuin piikkilangan piikit, huumori mustaa kuin aavikon yötaivas.

Rachel Kushner has established herself as “the most vital and interesting American novelist working today” (The Millions) and as a master of the essay form. In The Hard Crowd, she gathers a selection of her writing from over the course of the last twenty years that addresses the most pressing political, artistic, and cultural issues of our times—and illuminates the themes and real-life experiences that inform her fiction. In twenty razor-sharp essays, The Hard Crowd spans literary journalism, memoir, cultural criticism, and writing about art and literature, including pieces on Jeff Koons, Denis Johnson, and Marguerite Duras. Kushner takes us on a journey through a Palestinian refugee camp, an illegal motorcycle race down the Baja Peninsula, 1970s wildcat strikes in Fiat factories, her love of classic cars, and her young life in the music scene of her hometown, San Francisco. The closing, eponymous essay is her manifesto on nostalgia, doom, and writing. These pieces, new and old, are electric, vivid, and wry, and they provide an opportunity to witness the evolution and range of one of our most dazzling and fearless writers. “Kushner writes with startling detail, imagination, and gallows humor,” said Leah Greenblatt in Entertainment Weekly, and, from Paula McLain in the Wall Street Journal: “The authority and precision of Kushner’s writing is impressive, but it’s the gorgeous ferocity that will stick with me.”",288,"1982157712","9781982157715","https:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.com\u002Fbooks\u002Fcontent?id=SPztDwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&source=gbs_api","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=SPztDwAAQBAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=14&source=gbs_api",{"title":183,"authors":184,"publishedDate":185,"language":44,"isbn10":186,"isbn13":187,"previewLink":188},"Club Mars",[5],"2018","902545190X","9789025451905","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=SkZztgEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=15&source=gbs_api",{"title":190,"authors":191,"publisher":192,"publishedDate":193,"description":194,"pageCount":195,"language":57,"thumbnail":196,"previewLink":197},"Yoshitaka Amano",[190,5],"Walther Konig Verlag","2002","Essay by Rachel Kushner.

Outside is the world from which she has been permanently severed: the San Francisco of her youth, changed almost beyond recognition; the Mars Room strip club, where she once gave lap dances for a living; and her seven-year-old son, Jackson, now in the care of Romy's estranged mother. Inside is a new reality to adapt to: thousands of women hustling for the bare essentials needed to survive, amid the deadpan absurdities of institutional living. Romy sees the future stretch out ahead of her in a long unwavering line - until news from outside brings a ferocious urgency to her existence, challenging her to escape her own destiny...",396,"1444840894","9781444840896","http:\u002F\u002Fbooks.google.nl\u002Fbooks?id=T1eRwwEACAAJ&dq=inauthor:%22Rachel+Kushner%22&hl=&cd=19&source=gbs_api",{"title":217,"authors":218,"publisher":220,"publishedDate":221,"description":222,"pageCount":223,"language":57,"isbn10":224,"isbn13":225,"thumbnail":226,"previewLink":227},"William Eggleston: The Outlands",[219],"William Eggleston","David Zwirner Books","2022-10-18","Delving into critical and familiar themes of William Eggleston’s work, his recently revisited body of photographs, The Outlands, goes on a journey with him through the mythic and evolving southern landscape.

His motifs of signage, cars, and roadside scenes create an iconography of American vistas that inspired a generation of photographers. His experimental composition peers through layered scenes—an orange sunset dips into an abandoned diner as we observe from the cracked parking lot—expanding the boundaries of interior and exterior.
