Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A moving tribute to the spirit of survival, Arnold Zable's beloved novel Cafe Scherazade is now a Text Classic.'In Acland Street, St Kilda, there stands a cafe called Scheherazade.' Thus begins Arnold Zable's haunting meditation on displacement, and the way the effects of war linger in the minds of its survivors. In this deeply moving book we meet Avram and Masha, proprietors of the cafe, and hear the tales that they and their fellow storytellers have to offer- of Moshe stalking the streets of Shanghai and Warsaw, of Laizer imprisoned in the Soviet city of Lvov, and of Zalman marooned in Vilna and Kobe. And we learn how Avram and Masha met and fell in love and came to create their Melbourne cafe together.In this mesmerising book, at once fable and history, fiction becomes a way of remaining faithful to the stories of cities strung across the globe like pearls on a string, to the maps and narratives etched in the minds of old men talking in a cafe by the sea. A moving tribute to the spirit of survival, Arnold Zable's beloved novel Cafe Scheherazade is now a Text Classic.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A young boy plays the violin for his mother in Melbourne. Nina Simone sings 'Pirate Jenny' in a bar in Berlin. A fisherman plays a flute on the Mekong. And the strains of Paganini resonate in the forests of eastern Poland. From the cabarets of 1940s Baghdad to the streets of war-torn Saigon and the canals and alleyways of present-day Venice, music weaves through each of these spellbinding true stories.They are tales of hardship, of yearning and of celebration. Tales that span the globe, and bring us back to Melbourne and the extraordinary story of Amal-her flight from Iraq, her fears boarding the unseaworthy boat Australians would come to know as SIEV X, her night spent clinging to a corpse alone in the sea, and her desire to have her story told.'Maybe this is why I am alive,' Amal says, 'to tell the story of the people who sank in the ocean.' A young boy plays the violin for his mother in Melbourne. Nina Simone sings 'Pirate Jenny' in a bar in Berlin. A fisherman plays a flute on the Mekong. And the strains of Paganini resonate in the forests of eastern Poland. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Ithaca. I cannot recall the first time I heard the word. It has always been there like an ancient longing welling up from the sea.Xanthe is drawn to Ithaca, the birthplace of her father Manoli and her maternal grandfather Mentor. She is translating Mentor's manuscript, his story of leaving Ithaca and his life in Australia- fleeing the Kalgoorlie riots, working in Melbourne coffee houses with his compatriots, studying in the State Library, and learning to dream his way back to Ithaca and back to his lost son.Slowly she begins to understand her father's dark moods. The lure of the sea and the promise of fortune. And the ache for the sea and the island.Through Mentor's manuscript and Xanthe's memories, we meet many people and hear their stories, spanning more than a century. We follow the lives of Manoli and his brother Andreas, who, as teenagers in the 1930s, build a boat and ferry passengers and freight across the Ionian Sea. We meet Antonios Lekatsas and learn of his partnership with architect Walter Burley Griffin to design some of Melbourne's most creative buildings. And we hear the stories of the women who waited on Ithaca while their men sought fortune in Australia.Sea of Many Returns is a profound meditation on displacement, nostalgia and exile-a story that affirms the enduring resonance of the Odyssey for voyagers of all times. Arnold Zable takes us to modern-day Ithaca, to its mountains, villages and harbours, and into the houses of its people. Sea of Many Returns is a profound meditation on displacement, nostalgia and exile - a story that affirms the enduring resonance of the Odyssey for voyagers of all times.

Prima edizione
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Arnold Zable has articulated, exquisitely, the haunted consciousness of the next generation. An astonishing achievement, this is a lyrical, transcendent, luminous work.Romance and terror, light and shadow, replicas and originals, hover side by side, seeking reconciliation, while within me there is a sense of awe and a silent refrain- I am here, at last I am here; and it is far more beautiful than I had imagined. And far more devastating. Yet, somehow, never have I felt so much at peace.In the twenty-five years since it was published, Jewels and Ashes has become a classic, a book that has stood the test of time.Compelled by the momentum of memory, the unsettling fragments of ancestral stories told him as a child, Arnold Zable travels to the Eastern European countryside of his parents' remembrance, the terrain of his dreams and imagination, where he retraces the steps of the generations before him. Miraculously, it is this journey to the past that allows Zable to understand the present - the inner lives of those who, like his parents, survived the hatred but lost every trace of his family and former lives.Arnold Zable has articulated, exquisitely, the haunted consciousness of the next generation. An astonishing achievement, this is a lyrical, transcendent, luminous work. Another time, another place, another war, combining outstanding writing about travel, relations with parents and journey of historical discovery.
