Norman Mailer. MoonFire. The Epic Journey of Apollo 11 - Reseñas
| „Man nehme das wahrscheinlich größte Abenteuer der Menschheit, unglaubliches Bildmaterial der NASA und einen Verlag wie TASCHEN, der auf prächtige Bücher spezialisiert ist – da kann eigentlich nicht mehr viel schief gehen ... Nach den limitierten Sonderausgaben ist jetzt eine Ausgabe für ‚Normalsterbliche’ erschienen, die die ganze Pracht zum Preis von ein oder zwei Taschenbüchern bietet. Fazit: Sofort zuschlagen!“— Austro Classic, Kierling, Austria |
| "If I ever had a dream that I could see in one volume the feeling of what Apollo should encompass, you have accomplished that.... The whole design, the choreography, the sense of pace, is absolutely magnificent. So many books have come out over the decades, but this actually purveys the feeling of that time radiantly. I think it will hold up over many, many the years, and of course having Mailer's writing is graceful.— Michael Soluri, Photographer and Space Photography Expert, New York, Estados Unidos |
| "Norman Mailer, a writer once known for his towering ego, enjoyed the release of an equally over-sized book last Friday. Fans of Mailer gathered in the sleek reading room of the TASCHEN bookstore in Soho to commemorate the posthumous release, 'Moonfire: The Epic Journey of Apollo 11', a massive coffee table book based on his extensive coverage of the Moon landing for Life Magazine in 1969... The book's large size and stress on visual presentation certainly reinvent the original work."— Huffington Post, New York, Estados Unidos |
| "Each of the 12 special editions come with an individual piece of lunar rock. The rock and the book are presented in a cased designed by Marc Newson one of the most influential living designers of our time...The book itself is a fascinating compilation of photographs of what has been called the most historic event of the 20th century."— Luxist.com, New York, Estados Unidos |
| "MOONFIRE Collector's Edition was the most visually luscious print homage to space I've ever seen (or groped). Come to blog of it, MOONFIRE may be the most beautiful book I've ever seen. Great news for space junkies: TASCHEN has released a smaller version for $39.99 with the same page count, same content. It's part of the publisher's 30th anniversary 'Golden Book' line. No moon rock, no Buzz signature, but something I can afford to put on my shelf (and will)."— BoingBoing.net, Los Angeles, Estados Unidos |
| "The ultimate gift for space nerds. Uber rich space geeks...your ship has come in."— FutureBlog.com, New York, Estados Unidos |
| "Moonfire: le rêve lunaire accessible. Dans ce blog de la rédaction d'août 2009, nous avions signalé un pur chef-d'oeuvre des éditions TASCHEN, Moonfire. Basé sur des extraits d'un texte historique du célèbre écrivain américain Norman Mailer et agrémenté d'une iconographie tout simplement renversante, cet ouvrage s'imposait comme un livre majeur à propos des premiers pas sur la Lune. Il faut savoir que chez TASCHEN, la notion de 'beau livre' n'est pas une idée en l'air et, du coup, le niveau d'exigence (à la fois pour l'impression que pour le travail éditorial) est tel, que l'édition numérotée de Moonfire est sortie à 750 €. Elle vaut désormais 1.000 € en raison de sa rareté. Mais comme nous vous l'annoncions, une nouvelle édition à prix plus accessible vient enfin d'arriver et elle nous réserve trois excellentes surprises.(...) Un incontournable absolu à prix rêvé."— enjoyspace.com, Francia |
| "We found the gift you're looking for: The new edition of Norman Mailer's MoonFire, his epic tale of the Apollo 11 moonlaunch. The billionaire hook? This one, reissued by TASCHEN, comes in a special edition, with its very own piece of lunar rock, and a case designed by Marc Newson...The case itself has detail cues--ranging from the feet to the struts--lifted from the Apollo 11 lunar lander. It's crafted from a single piece of aluminum, and the surface is an topographical reproduction of a section of the moon's surface."— FastCompany.com, New York, Estados Unidos |
| „Ein Lese- und Schauvergnügen der Extraklasse! … Es ist groß und dick, opulent ausgestattet, wunderbar illustriert, und das alles zu einem unschlagbar niedrigen Preis. Vor allem aber ist es ein neu illustrierter Raumfahrt-Klassiker eines der größten Schriftsteller des 20. Jahrhunderts.“— Flugrevue.de, Bonn, Alemania |
| "You could lose hours wondering what the experience was like for those who were on board Apollo 11 to explore the mysteries of the moon. However, for all who are fascinated by the giant leap of mankind, the Lunar Rock edition can ease the stress."— BornRich.org, New York, Estados Unidos |
