L'art dévoile-t-il ou dissimule-t-il le créateur ? Une étudiante en histoire de l'art loue la maison d'un professeur dont elle suit les travaux de recherche. Il la prévient simplement que sa femme Agnes, qui est peintre, viendra occuper quelques jours l'atelier du premier étage. Lorsque celle-ci arrive, une intimité se noue entre les deux femmes : au fil de leurs rencontres dans l'escalier, dans l'atelier ou au café, Agnes se confie sur sa jeunesse, sa famille, son mariage, ses enfants et son rapport à l'art. Il apparaît petit à petit qu'Agnes n'a plus d'autre endroit où aller. Les moments de sa vie racontés avec frénésie trahissent une personnalité dispersée et mouvante. Sa créativité, qui reste à l'état d'une peinture blanche sur une toile blanche, s'en ressent. Dans ce roman empreint d'une atmosphère trouble et sensuelle, Ayşegül Savaş, d'une plume précise et subtile, plonge son lecteur dans le monde inquiétant de la création et interroge la figure de l'artiste: l'art dévoile-t-il ou dissimule-t-il le créateur ?

ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVOURITE BOOKS OF 2024 ‘An erudite and elegant meditation on modern life and modern love... Asya and Manu could very well be a couple in a novel by Sally Rooney or Caleb Azumah Nelson.' GUARDIAN 'Immaculately observed... I found myself not wanting The Anthropologists to end.' FINANCIAL TIMES ‘Savaş’ prose is an X-ray – an acute portrait of the tender frequencies that make a life.’ RAVEN LEILANI __________________________________________________________________________________ Asya and Manu are looking at apartments, envisioning their future in a foreign city. Removed from the web of family and its obligations, what traditions and rituals should they establish together? As they dream about the possibilities of each new listing, Asya, a documentary filmmaker, spends her days gathering footage from the neighbourhood park like an anthropologist observing local customs, anxious to know how people really live. ‘Forget about daily life,’ chides her grandmother on the phone, ‘no one cares about that.’ Meanwhile, life back in Asya and Manu's respective home countries continues – parents age, grandparents get sick, nieces and nephews grow up...

Después de la muerte de su madre, Nunu abandona Estambul para instalarse en un pequeño departamento en París. Desencantada de la vida, mata el tiempo dando largas caminatas sin rumbo. Un día, la casualidad la lleva a cruzarse con M., un famoso escritor británico al que siempre ha admirado.

Sin embargo, a medida que sus encuentros se vuelven más frecuentes, la insistencia de M. por conocer más de su vida obligará a Nunu a sumergirse en recuerdos que tal vez no quiere recuperar: la difícil relación con su madre, el suicidio de su padre y la verdad detrás de las historias que se había contado para seguir adelante. Volver a casa es una novela inteligente acerca de una joven que busca encontrar su lugar en el mundo al unir todas las piezas de su pasado. Una obra sobre la memoria familiar, la magia de la creatividad y aquellos sitios, reales o imaginarios, que nos acompañarán toda la vida.

The Wilderness

Autor: Aysegül Savas

Número de Páginas: 0

A deeply felt chronicle into the wilderness of the first forty days of new motherhood. In the final weeks of her pregnancy, Ayşegül Savaş becomes fascinated by the mythology around the first forty days after giving birth, and the invisible beings that are said to surround the mother. "In Turkish, we speak of extracting the forty days, like a sort of exorcism. My grandmothers assure me that it will all get better after forty days are out." A friend lends a book that suggests forty days of rest and fortifying broths and avoiding wind and cold. In Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, forty days are seen as a period of trial and transformation. They are often journeys into the wilderness and "its vast and unruly territories." When the baby arrives, Savaş charts her own path into the wilderness of new motherhood--a space of contradiction, of chaos and care, mothering and being mothered. "What is the trial of the postpartum crossing?" writes Savaş. "Where will mother and child emerge once they have left the wild?"

Beckett and Embodiment

Autor: Amanda M. Dennis

Número de Páginas: 295

This book argues that the abject, decrepit body in Beckett does not signal the impossibility of agency but demands its reconceptualisation. Analysing the representation of the body in relation to the environment in Beckett's work, the author interrogates the power to do and act. Separating dynamic interaction from willed intention, Amanda Dennis shows how Beckett's oeuvre refashions subjectivity in dialogue with a disintegrating environment. The book provides a phenomenological reading of Beckett to argue that sensation and embodiment support our interactions with our material world, enabling possibilities for embodied agency in collaboration with our physical and linguistic surroundings.

On Trails

Autor: Robert Moor

Número de Páginas: 352

New York Times Bestseller • Winner of the National Outdoor Book Award • Winner of the Saroyan International Prize for Writing • Winner of the Pacific Northwest Book Award • “The best outdoors book of the year.” —Sierra Club From a talent who’s been compared to Annie Dillard, Edward Abbey, David Quammen, and Jared Diamond, On Trails is a wondrous exploration of how trails help us understand the world—from invisible ant trails to hiking paths that span continents, from interstate highways to the Internet. While thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail, Robert Moor began to wonder about the paths that lie beneath our feet: How do they form? Why do some improve over time while others fade? What makes us follow or strike off on our own? Over the course of seven years, Moor traveled the globe, exploring trails of all kinds, from the miniscule to the massive. He learned the tricks of master trail-builders, hunted down long-lost Cherokee trails, and traced the origins of our road networks and the Internet. In each chapter, Moor interweaves his adventures with findings from science, history, philosophy, and nature writing. Throughout, Moor reveals how this single topic—the...

White on White

'I loved this book for its depth and perception, for its beauty and eerie rhythms, but most of all for its wonderfully dream-like spell. It's breathtaking' Brandon Taylor A student moves to the city to research Gothic nudes, renting an apartment from a painter, Agnes, who lives in another town with her husband. One day, Agnes arrives in the city and settles into the upstairs studio. Agnes tells stories of her youth, her family, her marriage, and ideas for her art. As the months pass, it becomes clear that Agnes might not have a place to return to. Her stories are frenetic; her art scattered and unfinished, white paint on a white canvas. White on White is a sharp exploration of what it means to be truly vulnerable and laid bare. 'Deeply humane, quietly devastating, mesmerisingly beautiful' Olivia Sudjic 'Marvellous' Lauren Groff 'Gentle, mysterious and profound' Marina Abramovic 'Enthralling' Observer 'An exceptionally elegant, intelligent, and original writer' Sigrid Nunez

Gli antropologi

Autor: Ayşegül Savaş

Número de Páginas: 142

Asya e Manu hanno lasciato i loro paesi e le famiglie d’origine e raggiunto una grande città. Una condizione oggi comune alla gioventù, alla ricerca di un proprio posto nel mondo e attratta dall’idea di ridefinire liberamente la propria esistenza, senza gli usi e i costumi delle generazioni precedenti. Come coloro che non hanno radici nel luogo in cui vivono, Asya, documentarista, e Manu, impegnato in un ente non-profit, sono sedotti dalla città che li ospita, frequentano caffè e case di amici, si immergono nella cultura locale con lo sguardo curioso e interrogativo di antropologi, affascinati dalle abitudini e dai comportamenti altrui e con il desiderio di comprendere come trovare bellezza e felicità nella precarietà della loro esistenza. Lontani, giungono gli echi delle vicende dei familiari, i genitori che invecchiano, i nonni che si ammalano, i nipoti che crescono. Con una scrittura che penetra magistralmente nei dettagli della vita quotidiana, Ayşegül Savaş descrive la giovane coppia in un momento cruciale: quello in cui si tratta di diventare adulti, affrontare la vita coniugale e mettere radici. Come farlo senza perdere il legame con le tradizioni da cui...
