Isbn: 9798228963351 - she who remains (3 risultati)

Condizione: new. Shortlisted for The International Booker Prize 2026She Who Remains, Rene Karabash's landmark Bulgarian queer novel, secrets listeners into a rural Albanian village where, to this day, the Kanun of Leke Dukagjini--a collection of archaic laws--looms over the lives of villagers with the same haunting presence of the surrounding mountains. Bekija, painfully aware of why she cannot have what she most wants, chooses to become a "sworn virgin," setting off a bloody and heartbreaking chain of events that shatters a family and destroys a cherished relationship, but also reveals how trauma can lead to vital, if uncomfortable, truths. Karabash's poetic stream of consciousness traces gender evolution with innovative grace. This bold exploration of what it means to be a woman in a world defined by the violence of ancient patriarchal traditions has resonated with listeners across Europe and beyond, and now English-language listeners won't soon forget Izidora Angel's award-winning translation. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
