Beilin caren (42 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Good. From the author of Blackfishing the IUD, a darkly hilarious novel about familial trauma, chronic illness, academic labor, and contemporary art.   In the tradition of Rabelais, Swift, and Fran Ross--the tradition of biting satire that joyfully embraces the strange and fantastical--and drawing upon documentary strategies from Sheila Heti, Caren Beilin offers a tale of familial trauma that is also a broadly inclusive skewering of academia, the medical industry, and the contemporary art scene. One day Iris, an adjunct at a city arts college, receives a terrible package: recently unearthed letters that her father had written to her in her teens, in which he blames her for their family's crises. Driven by the raw fact of receiving these devastating letters not once but twice in a lifetime, and in a panic of chronic pain brought on by rheumatoid arthritis, Iris escapes to the countryside--or some absurdist version of it. Nazi cows, Picassos used as tampons, and a pair of arthritic feet that speak in the voices of Flaubert's Bouvard and Pécuchet are standard fare in this beguiling novel of odd characters, surprising circumstances, and intuitive leaps, all brought together in profoundly serious ways.…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Un verano en Andalucía en una residencia literaria. Una escritora extranjera que huye del fin de una relación, de pensamientos intrusivos sobre su padre y de un país (un Estados Unidos «vergonzoso y brutal») para recalar en un territorio desconocido y en apariencia hostil. En este viaje con tintes de pesadilla ?oscuro, radical, poético, paranoico?, la experiencia es menos un paisaje geográfico que una turbulencia emocional. Como una áspera militante bartleby, la narradora renuncia en todo momento a ser lo que se espera de ella como mujer, como extranjera y como escritora, hasta inventarse un espacio moldeado a su entero antojo. El resultado tiene la cadencia y la potencia imaginativa propias de la mejor poesía, cuya lectura solo es posible disfrutar a plenitud mediante una inmersión absoluta. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
