Életre szóló egyezség
Négy elsős egyetemista, egészen eltérő családi körülmények közül: egy bulizós-drámázós csaj, egy jó tanuló, aki ügyvédnek készül, egy sportoló és a negyedik kedves, simulékony, a nagy egók mellé egy igazi csapatjátékos.
Összebarátkoznak és barátok is maradnak, de a diploma előtt kevéssel beüt a ménkű: egyikük tisztázatlan okból öngyilkos lesz. A sokk hatása alatt, megtörten állapodnak meg: akármit hozzon is a jövő, egymásra mindig számíthatnak majd.
Tíz évvel később egyikük élete legboldogabb napjára készül, amikor feje tetejére áll vele a világ. Kapcsolatba lép a többiekkel, és hamarosan kiderül: valójában mindannyian fordulópontra értek, dönteniük kell, kinek-kinek hogyan tovább.
Az önismeret, a megbocsátás és az elfogadás regénye ez, amely érzékenyen mutatja meg a gyászt, a szeretetet és a reményt - a legemberibb érzéseket.
A nyári egyezség valóra váltott ígérete, a szoros baráti szálak mindannyiukat megtartják, és jó irányba terelik jövőjüket.
Mým žalářem je svoboda
Autor v této sbírce pokračuje v provázení svých čtenářů krok za krokem stezkami, kterými se ubírá jeho duch, a přibírá je k účasti na svém putování za pravdou a smyslem života. Stále je věrný směru, mířenému do sebe sama, do své duše, své podstaty a na to navazující zkoumání přírody a světa a vztahů mezi oběma oblastmi. Věří, že pochopení souvislostí a touha po harmonii pomáhá snáze pronikat do tajů vztahových komplikací a šířit nejen pozitivní myšlení kolem sebe, ale především lásku a soucit. V případě této poslední sbírky se dá již říci, že autor se mnohem více blíží k archetypu žánru, umělecky snad nejrafinovanějšího druhu básnické tvorby, který se pohybuje na hranici poezie, filosofie, intelektuálního vtipu, bonmotu, zhuštěné anekdoty či hudby myšlenky a ticha.
The Horizon Line
An emphatic deep dive into the continual movement required of migrants, The Horizon Line studies a relatively recent and little-explored social and migratory phenomenon. For about a decade, the somewhat unprecedented occurrence of double migration has been observed in Italian Bangladeshis engaging in a second move to London. Told through the lens of a fictionalized ethnographer and presented in the form of accessible and captivating comics, this book traces the concept of onward migration and the lives shaped by it. Through interviews with Italian Bangladeshis who made the difficult decision to re-uproot their lives in search of better, social scientists and comic artists Francesco Della Puppa, Francesco Matteuzzi, and Francesco Saresin come together to highlight the joys and struggles of this new (e)migration. The authors offer insights on the dynamism of these “new Italian citizens.” and on the migration routes shaped by the continuous global transformations, and on the social, political, and economic situation of Italy and the Southern European countries. Moreover, by following the trajectories of Stefano the researcher, the book provides valuable insight into the modalities, processes, difficulties and turning points of conducting ethnographic research. An essential contribution to migration studies, The Horizon Line gives voice to diasporic communities and sheds light on their most current trials and tribulations.
The South
A radiant novel of the longing that blooms between two boys over the course of one summer – about family, desire, and what we inherit – from celebrated author Tash Aw. When his grandfather dies, a boy named Jay travels south with his family to the property he left them, a once flourishing farm that has fallen into disrepair. The trees are diseased, the fields parched from months of drought.
Still, Jay’s father, Jack, sends him out to work the land, or whatever land is left. Over the course of these hot, dense days, Jay finds himself drawn to Chuan, the son of the farm’s manager, different from him in every way except for one. Out in the fields, and on the streets into town, the charge between the boys intensifies.
Inside the house, the other family members confront their own regrets, and begin to drift apart. Like the land around them, they are powerless to resist the global forces that threaten to render their lives obsolete. At once sweeping and intimate, The South is a story of what happens when private and public lives collide.
It is the first in a quartet of novels that form Tash Aw’s masterful portrait of a family navigating a period of great change – a reimagined epic for our times.
