Book excerpt: Saudade, a collection of poems takes you on a journey of finding poetry in each miniscule part of life, the most commonplace of things envisioned with a deeper sight make saudade so relatable for the reader as all the protagonists are characters such that the reader can very well put himself in their place. The intricacy of emotions like pain, anguish, longing, nostalgia at different bandwidths is the highlight of this collection. Saudade mixes storytelling and poetry as the poet chooses to tell short instances of lives that are spent independent of each other yet have similar feelings, expressed through a variety of musical and literary effects. Some of these stories are heart wrenching, some give you a candid joy, but each one leaves you with a subtle smile on the face, and a slow wind of melancholy in the soul.
Download or read book Saudade written by Traci Brimhall and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[Brimhall] allows us brief visions, glimpses, of experiences more lush and raw than our own."—The Rumpus "With a stunning mastery of metaphor, linguistic precision, and a soulful determined vision, Brimhall's work reveals an artist tuned to the significance of everyday experience."—Dorianne Laux "Saudade" is a Portuguese word referring to a quality of longing that has no direct translation into English. Inspired by stories from her Brazilian-born mother, Traci Brimhall's third collection—a lush and startling "autobiomythography"—is reminiscent of the rich imaginative worlds of Latin American magical realists. Set in the Brazilian Amazon, Saudade is one part ghost story, one part revival, and is populated by a colorful cast of characters and a recurring chorus of irreverent Marias. From "Incomplete Address to the Lord": When I found that mass of scales and muscle, saw one anaconda twist around another, watched a split tongue flick the air, choosing me, black as the devil's own and twice as thick, males coiled around the female tickling her back with their spurs, I knew I'd give anything to be her. I felt the pulse in my eyelid, tasted the ants that paraded over my plantains at night, drank all the darkness out of my wife's breast. Lord, I'd rather be crazy than broken . . . Traci Brimhall is the author of two previous poetry collections. She earned her PhD from Western Michigan University and is Assistant Professor of Creative Writing at Kansas State University. She lives in Manhattan, Kansas.
Download or read book Saudade written by Debarati Sen and published by Penprints Publication. This book was released on 2022-12-23 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing for me is therapeutic, and I find emancipation in words. Poetry is cathartic to me. My journey with poems is very recent. My tryst with the world of poetry began in the cursed year 2020 when a lost a friend of mine to Covid-19. As I witnessed her funeral pyre and the flames engulfing her, a sense of acute dejection, and pain gripped me hard. I wanted to scribble down my pain and it was then that I started finding solace in poetry. Since then, I have been writing poems about every incident in my life that leaves a mark in my mind. My father had been detected with Dementia in 2015. Since then, his vision and his thoughts are ‘blurred’. The title of my first book, ‘Blurred Musings’ is a dedication to his spirit who still has the ardour to indulge in his musings.
Download or read book Ferry Crossing written by Manohar Shetty and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2000-10-14 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-seven engaging stories from the heart of one of India's youngest states. The great holiday destination of India, Goa has been reduced to an easy caricature by the demands of tourism and advertising: a beautiful land by the sea peopled by a feckless, bohemian race. This anthology introduces us to the true Goa, a place rich in history and tradition where the business of living is as serious and humdrum as it is anywhere else. Included here are the finest short stories from Goa written in Konkani, Marathi, Portuguese and English, all remarkable for their rare freshness, and many marked by sparkling humour and a contagious lightheartedness. The themes vary from the touching naivete of first love, as in Chandrakant Keni's 'Innocence', to the humiliation of poverty, movingly described in stories like Pundalik Naik's 'The Turtle'; from the amusing clash of egos among rural elite, brilliantly narrated in Victor Rangel-Ribeiro's 'Senhor Eusebio Builds His Dream House', to the startling brutality inherent in everyday lives, as seen in Pundalik Naik's 'When an Ass Mounts a Cow' and Damodar Mauzo's 'Theresa's Man'. Simply and lucidly told, the stories in Ferry Crossing reveal a Goa infinitely more human and complex than the stereotypical image of an enormous beach resort.
Download or read book Saudade written by Suneeta Peres da Costa and published by Giramondo Publishing. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A coming-of-age story set in Angola in the period leading up to the colony’s independence, Saudade focuses on a Goan immigrant family caught between complicity in Portuguese rule, and their dependence on the Angolans who are their servants. The title (saudade means ‘melancholy’ in Portuguese) speaks to the longing for homeland that haunts its characters, and especially the young girl who is the book’s protagonist and narrator. Suneeta Peres da Costa’s novella captures with intense lyricism the difficult relationship between the daughter and her mother, and the ways in which their intimate world opens up questions about domestic violence, the legacies of Portuguese slavery, and the end of empire. The young woman’s intellectual awakening unfolds into a growing awareness of the lies of colonialism, and the violent political ruptures that ultimately lead to her father’s death, and their exile. ‘[Her] voice is unique: neither childlike nor grownup, but instead by turns gravely articulate, wildly poetic, and hilariously original…a haunting and magical vision of childhood.’ Austin Chronicle

Download or read book Antigone s Daughters written by Hilary Owen and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-24 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antigone's Daughters? provides the first detailed discussion in English of six well-known Portuguese women writers, working across a wide range of genres: Florbela Espanca (1894-1930), Irene Lisboa (1892-1958), Agustina Bessa Lu's, (1923- ), Nat_lia Correia (1923-93), HZlia Correia (1949 -) and L'dia Jorge (1946 - ). Together they cover the span of the 20th century and afford historical insights into the complex gender politics of achieving institutional acceptance and validation in the Portuguese national canon at different points in the 20th century. Although a patrilinear evolutionary model visibly structures national literary history in Portugal to the present day, women writers and critics have not generally sought to replace this with a matrilinear feminist counter-history. The unifying metaphor that the authors adopt here for the purpose of discussing Portuguese women's ambivalent response to female genealogy is the classical figure of Antigone, who paradoxically sacrifices her own genealogical continuity in the name of defending family and kinship, while resisting the patriarchal pragmatics of state-building. Should women writers, faced with the absence of a female tradition, posit a woman-centred place outside the jurisdiction of male genealogy, however strategically essentialist that place may be, or should they primarily eschew fixed sexual identity to act as unnameable saboteurs, undoing the law of patriarchal tradition from within?
