"Das Licht der letzten Tage" ist ein Pandemie-Roman, der im Jahre 2014 erschienen ist. Corona ist gegenüber der georgischen Grippe, die in der fiktiven Welt von Emily St. John Mandel wütet, geradezu harmlos. Die Grippe sorgt dafür, dass 99 % Prozent der Weltbevölkerung ums Leben kommt, das Leben wie wir es kennen gibt es nicht mehr. ✒️ Mandel erzählt keine lineare Geschichte über eine Pandemie und deren Folgen. Sie beginnt mit einer Theateraufführung. Ein alternder Schauspieler stirbt auf der Bühne an einem Herzinfarkt. Im Verlauf des Buches springen wir in der Zeit. Mal begleiten wir eine wandernde Symphonie-Gruppe, die im Jahr 20 nach dem Zusammenbruch durch die Siedlungen zieht und Stücke von Shakespeare vorführt, mal befinden wir uns mit verschiedenen Personen an diversen Orten vor, während oder nach der Pandemie. ✒️ Alle Personen deren Geschichte uns die Autorin erzählt haben irgendeinen Bezug zu dem im Theater verstorbenen Schauspieler Arthur Leander. Er ist sozusagen der rote Faden der Erzählung und es ist spannend zu lesen wie sich nach und nach die Zusammenhänge von Personen und Gegenständen erschließen. ✒️ Dieses Buch hat authentische, vielschichtige Charaktere, deren Einzelschicksale interessant und bewegend geschildert werden und wirft die philosophischen Fragen einer postapokalytiscben Welt aif. ✒️ Ich muss zugeben, dass der  Einstieg in das Buch etwas mühsam war, aber ist man erstmal drin, lässt einen die düstere aber auch hoffnungsvolle Geschichte nicht los und halt auch lange nach der Lektüre noch nach. ✒️ #bookstagram #instabooks #station11 #daslichtderletztentage #emilystjohnmandel #pandemie #dystopie #lesen #novel #manbookerprize #goodreads #reading #kitap #postapocalyptic #roman #lesenswert

📖May Hopefuls📖 My one and only hopeful this month is the hugely hyped and massively popular A Little Life by Hanya Yanigahara. Swipe for some GoodReads reviews which put me on edge to say the least! I figure if I make this my one and only reading goal this month it will give me plenty of time to put it down and escape from it for a few days sometimes if it gets too much! I’ve had this on my tbr for so long and have been avoiding it for two main reasons: hype and heartbreak! I have heard amazing things about the characters, writing and unforgettable plot, but also how devastating it is! Let me know all your thoughts and feelings on this. Is it worth the hype? Is it worth the heartache?! . . . . #alittlelife #hanyayanigahara #hypedbooks #bookishfavourite #popularbooks #contemporaryfiction #contemporaryliterature #beautifulwriting #perfectprose #heartbreakingbooks #lgbtqiawriting #manbookerprize #bookerprize #bookerprizeshortlist #bookerprize2015 #manbookerprize2015 #mayhopefuls #maytbr

📖 We are all… - 3500 📚Thrift 📕Paperback 308 pages ✨Published 2013 🎥Swipe for video to see condition & synopsis Shortlisted for The Man Booker Prize 2014 🏆

A Little Life follows four college classmates-broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition-as they move to New York in search of fame and fortune. While their relationships, which are tinged by addiction, success, and pride, deepen over the decades, the men are held together by their devotion to the brilliant, enigmatic Jude, a man scarred by an unspeakable childhood trauma. A hymn to brotherly bonds and a masterful depiction of love in the twenty-first century. Hanya Yanagihara's stunning novel is about the families we are born into, and those that we make for ourselves. #manbookerprize #alittlelife #hanyayanagihara #bestsellingauthor #littlelife #classmates

This book was hugely talked about in 2017-2018 and was put on many important/notable books of the year lists, plus it won the Man Booker Prize and (funny enough) didn't get listed for the National Book Award. The second American winner of the UK award - maybe they like satirical American history books. Maybe they just really thought that bouncy ghost members were hilarious Who knows. Anyway, a book about parental loss, grief, and mourning, in many forms. Added to the collective grief of the entire graveyard and that of the nation mourning the casualties of the Civil War. Saunders balances powerful and sad imagery with that of ghost orgies. He adds completely made up historical references to tie up and throw shade on the real ones. It's just hilarious and absurd but there's a great story about moving on, acceptance, going forward, under all of it The audiobook is a star studded full cast that also won the 2018 audie award for Best audiobook. I liked it once I read enough to get the hand of the reference citations Have you read it?

Il canto del profeta/ Paul Lynch (66th A2ND Bookclub) Non scelgo a caso questa giornata del 25 aprile per parlarvi di Prophet Song, il Canto del Profeta. Il romanzo vincitore dell'ultimo Booker Prize ha infatti descritto in un'atmosfera distopica (ma alla fine neppure tanto) cosa potrebbe accadere in un Paese Occidentale e civilizzato, in questo caso l'Irlanda, se un regime totalitarista, come fu il Fascismo o il Nazismo o quello del Cile di Pinochet, assumesse il pieno potere e controllo ai nostri giorni. Ci ritroviamo perciò a conoscere questa famiglia normale: una coppia di quarantenni con quattro figli, con età che vanno dai 17 anni ai 13 mesi. Lui sindacalista degli insegnanti e lei ricercatrice universitaria. Un giorno bussano alla porta due membri del PARTITO, e chiedono a lei, Eilish, di parlare con suo marito. Lui non è in casa. Ma quando il giorno dopo li raggiungerà in sede per parlare con loro di lui non si avranno più tracce. Scompaiono così molti uomini e donne contro il regime, e nel frattempo Eilish dovrà resistere per tenere uniti i pezzi della sua famiglia, tra servizio militare obbligatorio, cancellazione di Internet, divieti di ogni genere. Ovviamente non spoilero il finale. Lynch ha scritto questo magnifico romanzo durante il periodo del lockdown per il COVID, e dunque traspaiono tutte le atmosfere livide di quei tempi bui. Ci sono anche echi di Saramago, Orwell, e Atwood. Io ho adorato questo libro. ❤️ Fatevi un regalo per questo giorno: leggetelo. #ilcantodelprofeta #prophetsong #PaulLynch #25aprilesempre #66and2nd #irishliterature #bookerprize #manbookerprize #letteraturadistopica #distopia

Not me thinking I'm a beast for finishing the book in two evenings and then discovering it's designed to be read in one go 👍 Ive never read anything quite like this. Schweblin manages to create absolute chaos for the main character and the readers, while simultaneously keeping complete control via a structured storytelling motif and style. I've seldom felt both in danger and safe so much with any book. #feverdream #blackbooks #samantaschweblin #manbookerprize #oneworldbooks #oneworldpublishing #readingtime #currentlyreading #lovetoread #books2024 #booksbooksbooks #bookaddict #instabooks #instareads #bookishlove #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramer #recentlyread #readersofinstagram #readersofig #bookish #fiction #microfiction #tbrlist #tbr #translated #translatedbooks #pageturner #paperback

‘Sometimes it is years before we can see who are the heroes in an affair and who are the victims’. It’s May 1536 and Anne Boleyn is dead. And Thomas Cromwell emerges from the bloodbath of her execution to climb higher in rank than ever before. With the new queen Jane set to take the throne, and hopefully provide Henry with his long awaited male heir, Cromwell continues his innovative, religious reform of England. But as time progresses, Jane Seymour dies and Henry looks set to take yet another wife. But Cromwell’s enemies are gathering, whispering in the ear of a paranoid and hot tempered King. Fate is catching up with Cromwell, and how long until his head joins the bloody ranks of those killed by Henry’s whim? The final of the #wolfhalltrilogy and you can see why it was 8 years in the making. The level of detail, historical accuracy and research that must have gone into this book is truly admirable. Cromwell remains an extremely complicated character. At times you can’t help but sympathise with him, other times you’re left wondering if he is fighting for his own glory or his King’s. It is a chunk, but the story is so gripping I flew through it fairly fast. For anyone with an interest in #tudorhistory or #historicalfiction this whole series is a must and 100% worth the time to read it. 5 🌟 #themirrorandthelight #bringupthebodies #wolfhall #hilarymantel #thomascromwelltrilogy #thomascromwell #bookstagram #bookfluencer #readstagram #readersofinstagram #readersofig #readersofinsta #bookreview #bookrecommendations #booksbooksbooks #manbookerprize #manbookerprizewinner

I have been spending far too much (unpaid) time at work lately and it has left me too exhausted to do really anything else so Bookstagram has taken a bit of a backseat unfortunately. I was looking at my shelves though earlier today and came across a few modern classics including Life of Pi and The Kite Runner that I have had for ages but still haven’t got to. What do you think of these two? Should I prioritise them? #TheKiteRunner #LifeOfPi #modernclassics #bookishfriendsunite #KhaledHosseini #BestSellingBook #BestSellingAuthors #YannMartel #ManBookerPrize #prizewinningbooks #ManBookerPrizeWinner #InternationalBestseller #BookToMovieAdaptation #BookTokBooks #literaryworld #literaryfiction #Readergram #tbrlist #BookReviewer #Bibliophile #Bookstagrammer #secondhandbooks #BookishPhoto #booktalk #readingcommunity #igreads #idratherbereading #bookblogger #DoctorsWhoRead #ClassicBooks

A moment of peace in an otherwise chaotic, big Aries energy kind of week. Calming solitude always found in the company of beautifully composed words. Breathe out, a pause. Excerpt from The Wren, The Wren by Anne Enright #booksneverdisappoint #anneenright #manbookerprize

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sinopsis Flash: recopilación de viajes, nómada. 🥾Mapa de la percepción viajera de La autora, Donde recopila un poco de todo lo que uno puede encontrar cuando empieza una aventura a un lugar fuera de nuestra casa, desde conversaciones en el aeropuerto, historias contadas por extraños o compañeros de viaje, memorias, reflexiones, anotaciones casuales con descripciones del lugar donde se encuentra, a veces con relatos históricos y lo más curioso unos mapas muy peculiares. La narrativa es muy bonita, tiene mucha sensibilidad para percibir la ambientación y las sensaciones. Sin embargo, la estructura personalmente se me ha hecho una telaraña, los capítulos son sueltos sin relación a veces con los anteriores. Salta de ideas e historias sin mucho orden. La recomiendo para los viajeros o los que se sienten atraído por ello, y los que disfrutan de este tipo de novelas sin prisa, sin orden ni algo establecido. #olgatokarczuk #librosdeviajes #editorialanagrama #manbookerprize #bookstagramespaña #recolendacionesdelibros

Takové maličkosti je útlá knížka s velkým tématem.📖 Pojednává o tzv. Magdaleniných prádelnách - klášterních útulcích pro ženy, které potřebovaly pomoct, ale setkaly se s nelidským zacházením. Slyšela jsem o tom prvně a opět mě překvapila temná stránka katolické církve. ***** "Jak jsem řekla, nic mi do toho není, ale musíte vědět, že tyhle jeptišky mají prsty všude." O krůček poodstoupil a přeměřil si ji.

Fun fact: I’ve been reading so much about the Troubles recently, that I’ve started dreaming about the IRA.  🇮🇪 SAY NOTHING (5/5 🌟) I’ve been eyeing this book for years, but I became disillusioned with true crime around the time of its pub date, so I never picked it up off the shelf. I was a fool! SAY NOTHING is so much more than the story of one murder, it’s a political history book that manages to be simultaneously wide-encompassing and intimate. Honestly, I might even use the word “masterpiece.”  🌇 MILKMAN (4/5 🌟) Once again, another book that I’ve been meaning to read for years. This is a stream of consciousness, with no proper names, and full of rambling tangents. I highly recommend the audiobook; I don’t think I could handle the lengthy chapters in print. 🥃 TRESPASSES (4/5 🌟) I have to share this quote because I got such a kick out of it: “DON’T FALL FOR A MARRIED PROD TWICE YOUR AGE...DON’T AGREE TO SEE HIM EVERY SINGLE TIME IT SUITS HIM…” (However, if you’re reading this for the affair, hoping it’ll be like a Sally Rooney novel, you may be disappointed.)  I spoiled myself reading SHUGGIE BAIN and MILKMAN right before this—those books (respectively) portrayed an alcoholic mother and Troubles-inducing paranoia/groupthink soooo much better. That being said, it was a fine read; the ending was just a bit too neat for me. I did really love how important Gaelic was to the plot. I’m learning Scottish Gaelic (gah-lick, not gay-lick like the Irish), so while they’re distinct languages, it was super fun to be able to pick up on some similarities. Also, TRESPASSES gets bonus points because it mentions Barry Lyndon in the epigraph and in the text.

As part of our 175th anniversary celebration, we are pleased to announce that Lincoln in the Bardo author George Saunders will give a reading in the Renwick Chapel at Oak Hill Cemetery on Friday, April 26 at 5pm. There will be a champagne toast before the reading. Saunders will sign books after the reading. Reserve your tickets today at the link in our bio. The recipient of a 2006 MacArthur Foundation Fellowship, George Saunders won the Man Booker Prize in 2017 for his novel Lincoln in the Bardo which is set on the grounds of Oak Hill Cemetery. In 2023 Saunders was awarded the Library of Congress Prize for American Fiction at the National Book Festival. Lincoln in the Bardo, which Colson Whitehead called “A luminous feat of generosity and humanism,” inspires hundreds of visitors each year to come to Oak Hill to visit the Carroll Mausoleum where Willie Lincoln was interred from 1862-1865 and reflect upon this moving story. Tickets will Support the Oak Hill Cemetery Historic Preservation Foundation. We look forward to celebrating our 175th Anniversary with you! #GeorgeSaunders #LincolnInTheBardo #OakHillCemetery #ManBookerPrize #LibraryOfCongressPrize #NationalBookFestival #georgetowndc #americanhistory #dchistory #175thAnniversary

I just spent the past hour holding back tears in my cubicle because of this audiobook. SHUGGIE BAIN is a beautiful, earnest portrayal of 1980s Glasgow, focusing on the working class Bain family—and in particular the devotion the youngest of the children, sweet Shuggie, feels for his alcoholic mother, Agnes.  douglas_stuart dedicates the book to his mother, stating in the acknowledgments: “I owe everything to the memories of my mother and her struggle.” Such a bittersweet sentiment; if I dwell on it any longer, I might actually cry at my desk. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 Swipe to see some of Raymond Depardon’s photos of 80s Glasgow, which inspired the author. More images and the full quotes can be found on @mrporter’s website. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Also: This fall, I’m visiting Scotland, so I’m trying to read as much as possible in preparation. Please send recommendations ! A lot of what I’m seeing online are classics, highlander romances, and Edinburgh noir—I love genre fiction as much as the next person, but I’m hoping to read some stuff that are more true-to-life...or at least have semi-regular Irn-Bru references like SHUGGIE BAIN, lol.

Uma vida pequena é um dos livros mais surpreendentes, desafiadores, perturbadores e profundamente emocionantes das últimas décadas. Uma narrativa épica sobre amor e amizade de quatro jovens que consegue romper barreiras e impactar leitores. Candidato ao Prêmio #Pulitzer de Literatura de 2016, além de finalista do #ManBookerPrize e do #NationalBookAward. #UmaPequenaVida #HanyaYanagihara #PequenaVida Com uma prosa magnífica e genial, Hanya Yanagihara criou um hino trágico e transcendental do amor fraterno, uma representação magistral da dor física e psicológica, e uma análise da verdade nua e crua que permeia a tirania da memória e os limites da resistência humana. Uma vida pequena é um épico sobre amor e amizade no século XXI que visita alguns dos espaços mais sombrios pelos quais a ficção já teve a coragem de navegar e que, ainda assim, de um jeito quase improvável, consegue romper as barreiras da sombra e alcançar a luz. Sinopse: Quando quatro amigos de uma pequena faculdade de Massachusetts se mudam para Nova York em busca de uma vida melhor, eles se veem falidos, sem rumo e amparados apenas por sua amizade e por suas ambições. Willem, lindo e generoso, é aspirante a ator; JB, nascido no Brooklyn, é um pintor perspicaz e às vezes cruel que busca de todas as formas ingressar no mundo das artes; Malcolm é um arquiteto frustrado que trabalha numa empresa de renome; e o solitário, brilhante e enigmático Jude funciona como o centro gravitacional do grupo. Com o tempo, o relacionamento deles se aprofunda e se anuvia, matizado pelo vício, pelo sucesso e pelo orgulho. No entanto, seu maior desafio, como cada um passa a perceber, é o próprio Jude, um litigante extremamente talentoso na meia-idade, porém, ao mesmo tempo, um homem cada vez mais atormentado, a mente e o corpo marcados pelas cicatrizes de uma infância misteriosa, e assombrado pelo que teme ser um trauma tão intenso que não só não será capaz de superar ― mas que vai definir sua vida para sempre.

THE TONGUE IS THE STRONGEST MUSCLE Kapfo in our Naga Ao Shirt. Naga textile pattern in soft handwoven cotton. Available on www.homelandelegies.com “There are countries out there where people speak English. But not like us - we have our own languages hidden in our carry-on luggage, in our cosmetics bags, only ever using English when we travel, and then only in foreign countries, to foreign people. It’s hard to imagine, but English is their real language! Oftentimes their only language. They don’t have anything to fall back on or to turn to in moments of doubt. How lost they must feel in the world, where all instructions, all the lyrics of all the stupidest possible songs, all the menus, all the excruciating pamphlets and brochures - even the buttons in the lift! - are in their private language. They may be understood by anyone at any moment, whenever they open their mouths. They must have to write things down in special codes. Wherever they are, people have unlimited access to them - they are accessible to everyone and everything! I heard there are plans in the works to get them some little language of their own, one of those dead ones no one else is using anyway, just so that for once they can have something just for themselves.” ~Flights, Olga Tokarcruk

A little life is what it is. I have read these 816 pages like it was drug and I am an addict. As in I needed to know what happens at the end and my life depended on it. I couldn’t associate particularly with any of the four protagonists but there moments in the book that touches you like light coming from space. It clears your mind and brings you close to reality, brings you close to memories that you didn’t know you had. The book manifests that we ought to live the finite number of days we are granted in this sojourn with utmost grace and kindness. Kindness, not just for people around us but for ourselves. The book cradles love when love has settled like dust, when love has passed the test of time and it simply sustains. The book talks of love which is nestled in friendship, friendship that lasts a lifetime, friendship which makes you safe, secure and heard. Jude (Oh, Jude) Willem (my favourite), JB and Malcom hope there are versions of you guys scattered like stardust all around us. Adios Comrades. . . . . #bibliophile #bookstagram #booklover #literaryfiction #hanyayanagihara #alittlelife #anchorbooks #manbookerprize #shotoniphone #life

Deborah Levy uzun zamandır okumak istediğim bir yazardı. Sonunda iki kitabını aldım. Bugün paylaştığım Sıcak Süt, 2012 yılında Man Booker Kitap Ödülünde finale kalmıştı. Nice’te yazlık bir evde geçen Eve Yüzerken, insanda bir François Ozon filmi izliyor duygusu yaratıyor. Villanın havuzunda beliren Kitty Finch, nereden geliyor, amacı ne? İroni ve sarkastik ögelerle dolu bu roman rüyalarla, parça parça hatırlayışlarla okuyucuyu boş kalan yerleri doldurmaya davet ediyor. Oldukça gizemli, yer yer depresif ama akıcı bir roman. Elimdeki diğer kitabı olan Sıcak Süt’ü de ilk fırsatta okuyacağım. #deborahlevy #eveyüzerken #roman #novella #everestyayınları #manbookerprize #finalist #modern #çeviriedebiyat #çevirmen #elvankıvılcım #everestkitap #çağdaşdünyaedebiyatı #benimseçtiklerim #okudumbitti #kitaplığımayenieklenenler #çalısüpürgelimadonna #kedisever #kitapkurdu

🌧️ Philip Hutton es hijo de uno de los mayores comerciantes de Malasia y de una mujer china, por ello, siempre se ha sentido atrapado entre dos mundos bien distintos: el inglés y el chino. Además, su vida dará un giro inesperado al conocer a Endo-san, un japonés que pronto se convertirá en su sensei y con el que entablará una profunda amistad. Esta relación hará que de nuevo Philip se vea atrapado en esta dualidad, ya que su sensei es japonés y pronto su pueblo invadirá la tierra que le ha visto nacer y crecer junto a su familia. 🌧️ A través de Philip asistimos a la historia de Malasia a partir de 1939 y los años que siguieron. Un país con una gran multiculturaludad, sometido por el dominio inglés (y lo que ello implicaba) y que, además, se encontraba en el punto de mira de Japón. Este hecho llevará a nuestro protagonista a tomar decisiones que marcarán su vida y la de todos cuanto le rodean. 🌧️ Tan Twan Eng fue nominado al Man Booker prize en 2007 por este libro (editado por @amok.ediciones ) y no me extraña, su poética forma de escribir nos traslada a la Malasia de aquellos convulsos años, con sus sabores, sus sonidos, sus olores... Y nos hace recorrer sus calles y senderos haciendo que el lector se sienta parte de ella pero, además, tiene el poder de llevarte hasta el corazón mismo de sus personajes; llorar, vivir, reír, sentir e incluso morir (si es necesario) con ellos, porque ¿hasta qué punto se puede escapar de tu destino? ¿Somos dueños de nuestras vidas o éstas vienen predeterminadas por algo que se nos escapa? 🌧️ A través de esta historia Tan Twan Eng nos brinda un magnífico retrato de un momento histórico muy significativo y nos revela detalles de la cultura de Malasia, China y Japón que yo desconocía y que me han resultado muy interesantes. 🌧️ Sin duda volveré a leer a este autor porque lo he disfrutado mucho y ha logrado emocionarme en más de una ocasión. Al leer este libro, he viajado a Malasia, a esos años, con sus gentes y es probable que ellos permanezcan en mí por mucho tiempo. ¿Lo habéis leído? ¿Qué más libros ambientados en Malasia nos recomendáis? ⬇️ Como siempre, os leemos 😊⬇️ #bookstagram #books #Saralee #booklover #booksworm

Happy Easter, darlings🌼 Here are some of the books (their covers) that make me happy and make me think of spring/new beginnings. It just so happened that Anna Burns' MILKMAN fits the overall Easter colour theme of the year: sunset/sunrise🤔😃🌟 🔸️ Su Šv. Velykomis visus🌼 Šiais metais margučiai atitiko kelių knygų viršelių spalvų paletę. Nudžiugau, kai tą suvokiau, ir iškart puoliau ieškoti būtent tų knygų. Jų turinys gal ir nelabai velykiškas, bet viršeliai šilti ir pavasariški, ir tiesiog gražūs. Nors nelabai mėgstu apie knygą spręsti pagal jos viršelį, šįkart viršelis - žvaigždė⭐ Ir šiaip man velykos yra graži šventė. Galbūt net gražiausia iš visų🤗 Tad gražių švenčių visiems🌟 P.S. Mažai rašau lietuviškai, todėl keli įrašai bus su antra lietuviška dalimi. Žinau. Mane tai irgi šokiravo.😲 #easterbookstack #happyeaster #skaitauangliskai #velykos #popularfiction #milkman #annaburns #exitwest #mohsinhamid #senseandsensibility #janeausten #athousandsplendidsuns #khaledhosseını #margučiai #bookstagramlt #manbookerprize

Experimenting with almond milk. Tried cold coffee in almond milk and had an #epicfail. Any recommendations on how I can make my coffee taste better without milk? For other beverage ideas, try blending almond milk, apple, cinnamon powder, honey, vanilla essence and chia seeds. *Chef's kiss* #milkalternative #coffeegram #bookshelf #manbookerprize #morningreading

🌌 A Little Life 🌌 So I bought this in October 2021 and I put it off and put it off (too long, too depressing apparently, too much hype, too many TWs, etc.) until @buddyreadbooknook thankfully encouraged me into reading it with a great buddy read! I finished it days ago and still truly do not know how to review it. EVERYONE had warned me it would rip my heart out and then stamp on the remains, but I don't think I believed them. I've read hundreds of books so naively I was like "can't be worse than anything else". Wrong! This is easily one of the most harrowing and depressing books I've ever read ... so why am I also calling it one of the best books I've ever read? Honestly, I really am not sure. There was a point (IYKYK end of part 5) that truly has me questioning why I was reading it. Every time I thought I'd read the worst possible thing, something else surprised me. Also I had thought before I read it that there was definitely no need for it to be this long (still a little dubious on that front) but now I can see why people put the hours into rereading this again and again. I'm not sure I'll read it again for a long time, but so glad I didn't give up! TLDR - read it but don't go in lightly. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

#julianbarnes ile tanışma kitabım. O kadar çok olumlu yorum okudum ki #birsonduygusu adlı romanın bu yazar için iyi bir başlangıç olacağını düşündüm. @ayrintiyayinlari yazarın tüm eserlerini yayın programına almış. Beğenirsem -ki bu kadar olumlu yorum sonrası buna eminim- diğer eserleri de okuyacağım. #manbookerprize almış bu önemli romancının beni yanıltmayacağını düşünüyorum. En azından ilk 20 sayfadan böyle bir elektrik aldım. #ayrıntıyayınları Çeviri #serdarrifatkıroğlu

The Memory Police by Yōko Ogawa, translated by Stephen Snyder In an unnamed island, things disappear. Things are made to disappear physically and all traces and references to them are also made to disappear. The Memory Police are meant to enforce these disappearances. People forget about the things that disappear and forget that they have forgotten. There are a few who remember. They are identified and taken by the Memory Police. The protagonist is a novelist and her editor is one who remembers. She takes it upon herself with the help of a friend to hide the editor before he is taken by the Memory Police. There are many ways one can approach the novel. There are two themes that resonated with me the most. I'll try to communicate these but I continue to think about these ideas many days after reading the book. Memory and voice. The novel highlights a surprising relationship between memory and voice. The majority of people who are able to forget live as though they were free. The truth is that they only live free within the guardrails that are given to them---they live without many things. The people who remember, however, are marginalized, without voice. Memory and loss. Memory of what is lost is what makes loss painful. When birds and roses and limbs disappeared, people quickly forgot what is now lost and adapted immediately. But is this the ideal of how to deal with loss? I doubt. On the other hand, for those who remember, when things are lost, there is always this imperative to cling to what is lost. Time heals wounds and at some point we can view memories with fondness. #TheMemoryPolice #YokoOgawa #StephenSnyder #TranslatedFiction #speculativefiction #manbookerprize #bookerprize #internationalbookerprize #bookrecommendations #books #bookstagram

Today’s library collection - one borrowed, two bought ~ sum total 0.40 cents. The Keegan, I’m certain is a sure bet. [ borrowed ] Alharthi, I’m hopeful for. [ bought ] The Lange? It’s a total wild card. [ bought ] At 0.20 cents it’s a bet I’m willing to take. With a glowing Samantha Schwelbin endorsement and you know, translated fiction… it’s hard to leave behind. Love trawling my local libraries cancelled book shelves. So many treasures to be found 💎. Have you any found absolute gem reads that you selected on a total wild card basis? ♡ ☽ ♡ ☼

Amitav Ghosh, born July 11, 1956, in Calcutta/Kolkata, is an Indian writer known for his novels, memoirs, travel writing, and nonfiction titles covering topics of national and personal identity (specifically Indian and South Asian identity), colonialism, political struggle, history, and climate change. His works, which tend to be transnational, cross the boundaries between anthropology, works of art, and writing. He has many well-known works, notably “The Great Derangement: Climate Change and the Unthinkable,” which addresses climate change in context with art, history, culture, and politics. These are common themes within his writing, though he does not solely write about environmental activism or climate change. His most well-known books include “The Hungry Tide,” “Sea of Poppies,” and “Gun Island.” His works have won numerous awards, including the Man Booker Prize, the Man Asian Literary Prize, and the Arthur C. Clarke Award. He also received the Dan David Prize together with Margaret Atwood. #AmitavGhosh #Ghosh #environmentalactivism #environment #climateactivism #climatechange #nonfiction #identity #memoir #novels #travel #travelwriting #Colonialism #TheGreatDerangement #ManBookerPrize

#QOTD : Have you heard of the recent Akutagawa Prize controversy? Being one of Japan's most coveted literary awards, named after the legendary Ryunosuke Akutagawa, it made a lot of sense that the public got rather ... confused, when the winner admitted to using AI in her writing process. It has been a heated debate for a while now. [If you don't understand the importance of The Akutagawa Prize, maybe it'll help if I say that Osamu Dazai was absolutely desperate to get it, but he didn't get it at the end of the day.] It leads me to ask : What do you think of AI taking over creative spaces? Like writing, art, etc.? Feel free to have a discussion in the comments. In the meantime, here's a few offbeat literary awards in Japan that you may not have known about! (Yes, there's some nonfiction too.) The 2023 winners are included too, so it may serve as book recommendations as well. Do let me know if you learnt something new!

👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨 🎨 weekly wrap-up 🌹🐺 I was so captivated by these books that I read each one in a matter of days... both are love stories, one raw and real, the other fiery and fantastical. It's easy to see why Nicholls is a much adored author and why 'Us' was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize (2014). This novel is simple yet stunningly executed, exploring love in its many forms, across many moments, in a narrative form that is wonderfully witty! The characters are complex yet wholly relatable; the experiences sad and joyfully funny; the settings soulful and special. I loved it 💫 Similarly, it's not hard to see why Sarah J Maas has become a phenomenon of fantasy fiction! ACOTAT is one of those books you just can't put down. The characters capture your heart, and the settings are described in beautiful detail, transporting you to a world that, like Feyre, you don't want to leave! The rest of the series is on order 🙌 Chelsea x #books #review #bookstagram #romance #fantasy #fiction #inspiration #bestsellers #sarahjmaas #acourtofthornsandroses #davidnicholls #manbookerprize

Happy Saturday everyone! I’ve been spending some time off social media. Sometimes it’s nice to bunker down for a while and unwind. I’m hoping to up my posting a bit since I’ve come out of hibernation. Not an avid reader of literary fiction but when it hits me, it hits me hard and gives me an existential crisis. ‘The Colony’ is set in Ireland in the 1970’s and explores colonisation and the problems Irish identity faced. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something a little different and leaves you with a lot of room to dissect the story and think for yourself. #booklover #book #booknerd #bookstagram #bookreview #bookreader #bookrecommendation #manbooker #manbookerprize #bookrecommendations #bookreviewer #booksta #readersofinstagram #literaryfiction #irishauthors #irishbooks #saturdayreading #saturdayreads #weekendreads #weekendreading

Polonyalı yazar Olga Tokarczuk'un "Koşucular" adlı romanı 2007 yılında yayımlanmış. Yazar da kitap da bol ödüllü. "Kenarda durmak. Yaşamı yalnızca bölümler halinde görmek, başka türlüsü yok. Anlar, parçalar, bir kez oluştuktan sonra parçalara ayrılan anlık oluşumlar var. Yaşam mı? Öyle bir şey yok; ben zaman içinde, çizgileri, düzlemleri ve geometrik şekilleri görüyorum", diyor anlatıcı. Roman da parça parça hikayelerden oluşuyor. Bunlar geçmişden ve ya günümüze ait, farklı karakterlerin, farklı yerlerde geçen hikayeleri ve yaşanmışlıklar olasılıkla. Hikayeler arasında yer bulan düşünceler, alıntılar, monologlar, hayalî ve gerçek yerlerin haritaları, çeşitli notlar da var. Kısa, tesadüfi kesitler gibiler. Yazarın, bedenin ve ruhun yolculuk olanaklarını araştırırken anlatıcısına tanıdığı bu özgürlük, göçebeliğe, kaçışa ve arayışa dair zengin bir metin oluşturmakta. Tokarczuk, "Atatürk'ün Reformları" başlığı altında, 1910 yılında Sultan Reşad döneminde İstanbul'da yapılan köpek itlafına değinmiş. Bu tür konularda gerçekle uyum önemli. Anlaşılan, anlatıcı gibi yazar da gezip dolaşmaktan, bakmaktan ve dinlemekten yorulmuş bu kısmı yazarken; araştırmaya gerek duymamış. #koşucular #lespelegrines #pelegrin #flights #bieguni #olgatokarczuk #lehedebiyatı #nobel #nobelprize #nikeaward #manbookerprize #edebiyat #literaturepolonaise #literature #novel #roman #neşetaluyyüce #alabandayayınları

🏆AUTORI PREMIATI🏆 Quel che resta del giorno Kazuo Ishiguro Einaudi 1990   “E forse allora vi è del buono nel consiglio secondo il quale io dovrei smettere di ripensare tanto al passato, dovrei assumere un punto di vista più positivo e cercare di trarre il meglio da quel che rimane della mia giornata. Dopotutto che cosa mai c’è da guadagnare nel guardarsi continuamente alle spalle e a prendercela con noi stessi se le nostre vite non sono state proprio quello che avremmo desiderato?”   Vincitore del Man Booker Prize nel 1989 questo è un romanzo nostalgico che ripercorre i momenti più importanti della vita di un uomo che ha sempre sacrificato tutto per il suo lavoro: l’impeccabile maggiordomo di Darlington Hall, Mr Stevens. La sua dedizione gli ha sempre fatto mettere in secondo piano i propri sentimenti, che restano sempre taciuti in nome del senso del dovere. Il romanzo è ambientato nell’estate del 1956, Mr.Stevens può prendersi qualche giorno di riposo e spronato dal nuovo proprietario di Darlington Hall, un gentiluomo americano, ne approfitta per compiere un viaggio attraverso la campagna inglese per andare a rendere visita a Miss Kenton, l’ex governante di Darlington Hall. Un viaggio fisico e interiore, si stupirà della grandezza dei paesaggi della sua terra e ripercorrerà momenti estremamente delicati e importanti per la storia di questo paese, che vent’anni prima è stato scosso da epocali cambiamenti politici e sociali. Al centro dei ricordi c’è il forte legame con la governante Miss Kenton, al quale è incapace di arrendersi, un rapporto fatto di parole non dette che avrebbero potuto stravolgere il senso delle loro vite. Uno sguardo sincero sulla vita passata, con la consapevolezza di dover fare del proprio meglio con quel che resta del giorno….
