The first and only novel by Lydia Davis, winner of the Man Booker International Prize 2013. 'It surprised me, over and over, to find that I was with such a young man.

The End of the Story
ISBN: 9780312423711 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 231 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Mislabeled boxes, problems with visiting nurses, confusing notes, an outing to the county fair--such are the obstacles in the way of the unnamed narrator of The End of the Story as she attempts to organize her memories of a love affair into a novel. With compassion, wit, and what appears to be candor, she seeks to determine what she actually knows about herself and her past, but we begin to suspect, along with her, that given the elusiveness of memory and understanding, any tale retrieved from the past must be fiction. Mislabeled boxes, problems with visiting nurses, confusing notes, an outing to the county fair--such are the obstacles in the way of the unnamed na... |

Pointiert, urkomisch, fabelhaft, melancholisch, doppelbödig, tiefgründig - es gibt kein Register, das Lydia Davis nicht perfekt ziehen kann. In "Unsere Fremden" werden Gespräche belauscht und falsch...

The Cows
ISBN: 9781932511932 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 32 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. -You read Lydia Davis to watch a writer patiently divide the space between epiphany and actual human beings by first halves, then quarters, then eighths, and then sixteenths, into infinity, - says The Village Voice. Indeed, Lydia Davis is mathematician, philosopher, sculptor, jeweler, and scholar of the minute. Few writers map the process of thought as well as she, few perceive with such charged intelligence. The Cows is a close study of the three much-loved cows that live across the road from her. The piece, written with understated humor and empathy, is a... -You read Lydia Davis to watch a writer patiently divide the space between epiphany and actual human beings by first halves, then quarters, then ei... |
