ISBN: 9781565843967 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Patrick Chamoiseau first became known to the international literary world with "Texaco," the vast and demanding novel that won France s prestigious Goncourt Prize in 1992. Less well known is the fact that Chamoiseau has written a number of extraordinary books about his childhood in Martinique. One of these, "Creole Folktales," recreates in truly magical language the stories he heard as a child. Folktales with a twist, fairy tales with attitude, these stories are told in a language as savory as the spicy food so lovingly evoked within these pages. The cheeky urchins, dowagers, ne...

Byl jednou jeden zázrak
ISBN: 9788075150738 / Czeski / 2018 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Pohádky mají jistojistě pobavit (co jiného než smích přináší naději, když člověk musí žít v něčem, co se podobá peklu), jsou však i výchovnou lekcí, receptem, jak se naučit žít, či spíše přežít v kolonizované zemi: kreolské pohádky vypravují o strachu, který je všude, o světě, kde tito lidé musí žít, přestože je strašidelný, kreolská pohádka vypráví o tom, že brutální siláctví znamená začátek porážky i trestu, že slabší přece může mocnějšího porazit nebo mu dát aspoň pořádně na frak, když je chytrý, mazaný,...

School Days
ISBN: 9780803263765 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. School Days (Chemin-d'Ecole) is a captivating narrative based on Patrick Chamoiseau's childhood in Fort-de-France, Martinique. It is a revelatory account of the colonial world that shaped one of the liveliest and most creative voices in French and Caribbean literature today. Through the eyes of the boy Chamoiseau, we meet his severe, Francophile teacher, a man intent upon banishing all remnants of Creole from his students' speech. This domineering man is succeeded by an equally autocratic teacher, an Africanist and proponent of "Negritude." Along the way we are also introduced to Big...

Chronicle of the Seven Sorrows traces the rise and fall of Pipi Soleil, "king of the wheelbarrow" at the vegetable market of Fort-de-France, in a tale as lively and magical as the marketplace itself.
