Coming Through Slaughter
ISBN: 9780679767855 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Bringing to life the fabulous, colorful panorama of New Orleans in the first flush of the jazz era, this book tells the story of Buddy Bolden, the first of the great trumpet players--some say the originator of jazz--who was, in any case, the genius, the guiding spirit, and the king of that time and place. In this fictionalized meditation, Bolden, an unrecorded father of Jazz, remains throughout a tantalizingly ungraspable phantom, the central mysteries of his life, his art, and his madness remaining felt but never quite pinned down. Ondaatje's prose is at times startlingly lyrical, and as...

Do této skupiny jeho děl patří i fiktivní memoár Máme to v rodině z roku 1982. V barvité a exotické mozaice poskládané z příběhů, anekdot, básní a faktografických pasáží...

Handwriting
ISBN: 9780375705410 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. -Tumultuous, vibrant, tragic and over too soon.- --Newsday
Handwriting is Michael Ondaatje's first new book of poetry since The Cinnamon Peeler. The exquisite poems collected here draw on history, mythology, landscape, and personal memories to weave a rich tapestry of images that reveal the longing for--and expose the anguish over--lost loves, homes, and language, as the poet contemplates scents and gestures and evokes a time when -handwriting occurred on waves, / on leaves, the scripts of smoke- and remembers a woman's -laughter with its / intake of breath. Uhh huh.-... -Tumultuous, vibrant, tragic and over too soon.- --Newsday
