Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 2025'It may seem to you that I am standing here and speaking into a microphone, but I'm not' begins LAszlA3 Krasznahorkai, delivering his 2025 Nobel Lecture to a rapt audience in Stockholm. In his mind, he explains, he is pacing the room, the room in the tower he is in, the tower that is only a tower because of the incline of the hill, all the while considering the presence of angels, the force of humanity and how, from our degraded current epoch, destruction might emerge -or rebellion. The brilliant Nobel Prize lecture by LAszlA3 Krasznahorkai, who was awarded for 'his compelling and visionary oeuvre that, in the midst of apocalyptic terror, reaffirms the power of art' Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A haunting meditation on present-day Berlin from one of Hungary's most talented 21st century writers, Berlin-Hamlet is Szilard Borbely's remarkable US debut and a must-read for lovers of Eastern European literature and poetry.Shortlisted for the 2017 National Translation Award in Poetry and the 2017 Best Translated Book Award in PoetryBefore his tragic death, Szilard Borbely had gained a name as one of Europe's most searching new poets. Berlin-Hamlet-one of his major works-evokes a stroll through the phantasmagoric shopping arcades described in Walter Benjamin's Arcades Project, but instead of the delirious image fragments of nineteenth-century European culture, we pass by disembodied scraps of written text, remnants as ghostly as their authors: primarily Franz Kafka but also Benjamin himself or the Hungarian poets Attila J zsef or Erno Szep. Paraphrases and reworked quotations, drawing upon the vanished prewar legacy, particularly its German Jewish aspects, appear in sharp juxtaposition with images of post-1989 Berlin frantically rebuilding itself in the wake of German reunification.This English-only edition does not include the poems in their original language. A title, in which paraphrases and reworked quotations, draw upon the vanished prewar legacy, particularly its German Jewish aspects, that appear in sharp juxtaposition with images of post-1989 Berlin frantically rebuilding itself in the wake of German unification.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A moving, posthumous collection of elegies and eclogues that meditate on nature, landscape, and history, by a great Hungarian poet.A moving, posthumous collection of elegies and eclogues that meditate on nature, landscape, and history, by a great Hungarian poet.Szilard Borbely spent his childhood in a tiny impoverished village in northeastern Hungary, where the archaic peasant world of Eastern Europe coexisted with the collectivist ideology of a new Communist state. Close to the Soviet border and far from any metropolitan center, the village was a world apart: life was harsh, monotonous, and often brutal, and the Borbelys, outsiders and "class enemies," were shunned. In a Bucolic Land, Borbely's final, posthumously published book of poems, combines autobiography, ethnography, classical mythology, and pastoral idyll in a remarkable central poetic sequence about the starkly precarious and yet strangely numinous liminal zone of his youth. This is framed by elegies for a teacher in which the poet meditates on the nature of language and speech and on the adequacy of words to speak of and for the dead. Ottilie Mulzet's English translation conveys the full power of a writer of whom Laszl Krasznahorkai has said, "He was a poet-a great poet-who shatters us."This English-only edition does not include the poems in their original language. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

The wanderer is searching for a garden that has long captivated him: he continually saw the garden in his minds eye without being able to touch its existence.This exquisitely beautiful novel by National Book Awardwinner Laszlo Krasznahorkaiperhaps his most serene and poetic workdescribes a search for the unobtainable and the riches to be discovered along the way. Despite the difficulties in finding the garden, the reader is closely introduced to the construction processes of the monastery (described in poetic detail) as well as the geological and biological processes of the surrounding area (the underground layers revealed beneath a bed of moss, the travels of cypress-tree seeds on the wind, feral foxes and stray dogs meandering outside the monasterys walls), making this an unforgettable meditation on nature, life, history, and being.
