Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Lamps, penknives, paperbacks, mechanical pencils, inflatable headrests. Marcin Wicha's mother Joanna was a collector of everyday objects. She found intrinsic - and often idiosyncratic - value in each item. When she dies and leaves her apartment intact, Wicha is left to sort through her things.The objects are the seemingly ordinary possessions of an ordinary life. But through them, Wicha begins to construct an image of Joanna as a Jewish woman, a mother, and a citizen. As Poland emerged from the Second World War into the material meanness of the Communist regime, shortages of every kind shaped its people in deep and profound ways. What they chose to buy, keep - and, arguably, hoard - tells the story of contemporary Poland.Joanna's Jewishness, her devotion to work, her formidable temperament, her weakness for consumer goods, all accumulate into an unforgettable portrait of a woman and, ultimately, her country. Things I Didn't Throw Out is an intimate, unconventional and very funny memoir about everything we leave behind. A wry and unsentimental account of the attempt to understand a parent as an independent person with their own history.

Condizione: Come nuovo. «Cosa ci farai con tutta questa roba?» Smontare una casa, la casa dei nostri genitori o, come nel caso dell?autore di questo libro, della propria madre, è un?esperienza dalla quale alcuni di noi sono passati. Spesso è la casa dove abbiamo vissuto noi stessi, e a ricordi si sommano ricordi, in un percorso a ritroso che può risvegliare sentimenti contrastanti. Siamo dunque di fronte a un libro triste? Esattamente il contrario. I ricordi possono essere affettuosamente addomesticati, e gli oggetti che popolano una casa, da potenziali bombe emotive, trasformarsi in eredità tanto più facili da accettare quanto più semplice è liberarsene. Ecco allora che stanza dopo stanza, grazie a oggetti improbabili, libri imbarazzanti, scoperte e sorprese, con grazia, ironia e a volte qualche sana perfidia, Marcin Wicha ci racconta come ha elaborato il proprio lutto e ci regala, insieme a battute e aneddoti esilaranti, il ritratto di una donna tanto ingombrante quanto, come spesso capita, indimenticabile. In brossura. Pp. 182. Pari al nuovo. Copertina morbida/libro cartaceo.…
