Book Journey to the End of the Night

Download or read book Journey to the End of the Night written by Louis-Ferdinand Céline and published by Calder Publications Limited. This book was released on 1988 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it was published in 1932, this revolutionary first fiction redefined the art of the novel with its black humor, its nihilism, and its irreverent, explosive writing style, and made Louis-Ferdinand Celine one of France's--and literature's--most important 20th-century writers. The picaresque adventures of Bardamu, the sarcastic and brilliant antihero of Journey to the End of the Night move from the battlefields of World War I (complete with buffoonish officers and cowardly soldiers), to French West Africa, the United States, and back to France in a style of prose that's lyrical, hallucinatory, and hilariously scathing toward nearly everybody and everything. Yet, beneath it all one can detect a gentle core of idealism.

  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2002-02-17
  • ISBN : 9780691090986
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book Night Journey written by María Negroni and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2002-02-17 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of South America's most celebrated contemporary poets takes us on a fantastic voyage to mysterious lands and seas, into the psyche, and to the heart of the poem itself. Night Journey is the English-language debut of the work that won María Negroni an Argentine National Book Award. It is a book of dreams--dreams she renders with surreal beauty that recalls the work of her compatriot Alejandra Pizarnik, with the penetrating subtlety of Borges and Calvino. In sixty-two tightly woven prose poems, Negroni deftly infuses haunting imagery with an ironic, personal spirituality. Effortlessly she navigates the nameless subject to the slopes of the Himalayas, to a bar in Buenos Aires, through war, from icy Scandinavian landscapes to the tropics, across seas, toward a cemetery in the wake of Napoleon's hearse, by train, by taxis headed in unrequested directions, past mirrors and birds, between life and death. Night Journey reflects a mastery of a traditional form while brilliantly expressing a modern condition: the multicultural, multifaceted individual, ever in motion. Displacement abounds: a "medieval tabard" where a pelvis should be, a "lipless grin," a "beach severed from the ocean." In one poem "nomadic cities" whisk past. In another, smiling cockroaches loom in a visiting mother's eyes. Anne Twitty, whose elegant translations are accompanied by the Spanish originals, remarks in her preface that the book's "indomitable literary intelligence" subdues an unspoken terror--helplessness. Yet, as observed by the angel Gabriel, the consoling voice of wisdom, only by accepting the journey for what it is can one discover its "hidden splendor," the "invisible center of the poem." As readers of this magnificent work will discover, this is a journey that, because its every fleeting image conjures a thousand words of fertile silence, can be savored again and again.

Book excerpt: ". . . a wonderful teaching tool for those who are welcoming refugees into their community."—The New York Times With haunting echoes of the current refugee crisis this beautifully illustrated book explores the unimaginable decisions made as a family leave their home and everything they know to escape the turmoil and tragedy brought by war. This book will stay with you long after the last page is turned. From the author: The Journey is actually a story about many journeys, and it began with the story of two girls I met in a refugee center in Italy. After meeting them I realized that behind their journey lay something very powerful. So I began collecting more stories of migration and interviewing many people from many different countries. A few months later, in September 2014, when I started studying a Master of Arts in Illustration at the Academy of Lucerne, I knew I wanted to create a book about these true stories. Almost every day on the news we hear the terms "migrants" and "refugees" but we rarely ever speak to or hear the personal journeys that they have had to take. This book is a collage of all those personal stories and the incredible strength of the people within them.

Mihály has recently joined the respectable family firm in Budapest, but as his gaze passes over the mysterious back-alleys of Venice, memories of his bohemian past reawaken his old desire to wander. When bride and groom become separated at a provincial train station, Mihály embarks on a chaotic and bizarre journey that leads him finally to Rome, where he must reckon with both his past and his future. In this intoxicating and satirical masterpiece, Szerb takes us deep into the conflicting desires of marriage and shows how adulthood can reverberate endlessly with the ache of youth.

Debarred by successive Jewish laws from working in a university, he was subjected to increasing persecution, and finally murdered in a forced labour camp in 1945.

Book Journey Through the Night

Download or read book Journey Through the Night written by Jakob Littner and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 2000 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1948 a Holocaust memoir was published in German under the title Notes from a Bunker and under the authorship of Jakob Littner. In 1991 the book was republished as Jakob Littner's Notes from a Bunker, authored by Wolfgang Koeppen, a noted postwar German novelist, who died in 1996. The dust jacket of the new edition bore the rubric "A Novel, " and in his brief preface Koeppen explained: "The man who had escaped was looking for a writer....The publisher asked me: 'Do you want to write it?' This human being who had been so abused wanted to get away. He emigrated to America. He promised me an honorarium -- two care packages each month. I ate American rations and wrote the story about the suffering of a German Jew. In doing so, it became my story." "My story"? Critics have wondered about that. Is the book fictional at all? And if so, how much? As it turns out, Koeppen worked from a fully completed typescript written by one Jakob Littner who did indeed experience the horrific events described inthe "novel" and emigrated to America, where he died in 1950. This is his own true story, with additional family and historical material provided by a younger relative. Littner's story is unusual because it takes place not in a concentration camp, but in a town in Ukraine on the Eastern front. Littner's memoir traces his life from Munich, where he was a highly successful stamp dealer, to the ghetto of Zbaraz in Ukraine. In spare but harrowing prose, it describes the destruction of the Jews of Zbaraz and Littner's almost miraculous survival through chance and resourcefulness, and the remarkable actions of Christa, a beautiful German woman who had been his business partner in Munich. One element thatis sure to spark controversy is the active role of the Jewish Council and Jewish Militia in the killing of the Jews of Zbaraz.
