Paperback. Condition: New. Winner of the 2021 PEN Award for Poetry in TranslationIncisive and confessional, Raised by Wolves collects the most acclaimed work of Taiwanese poet -filmmaker Amang. In her poems, Amang turns her razor-sharp eye to everything from her suitors ("For twenty years I've loved you, twenty years / So why not say yes / You want to see my nude photos ?") to international affairs -"You'd have to win the lottery ten times over / And the U.N. hasn't won it even once." Keenly observational yet occasionally absurd, these poems are urgent and lucid, as Amang embraces the cruelty and beauty of life in equal measure.Raised by Wolves also presents a groundbreaking new framework for translation. Far from positing the transition between languages as an invisible and fixed process, Amang and translator Steve Bradbury let the reader in. Multiple English versions of the same Chinese poem often accompany dialogues between author and translator: the two debate as wide -ranging topics as the merits of English tenses, the role of Chinese mythology, and whether to tell the truth you have to lie a little, or a lot. Author, her poems, and translator, work in tandem, "Wanting that which was unbearable / To appear unbearable / Just as it should be.".…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Jusqu'où peut-on faire confiance à sa propre famille Yves grandit dans une famille camerounaise nombreuse, entre une mère dévouée et un père militaire qu'il admire profondément.Pour l'enfant qu'il est encore, son père représente la force, la discipline et la protection. C'est un homme généreux, profondément attaché aux siens, convaincu que la famille est sacrée. Il aide ses frères et soeurs, leur fait confiance et croit aux liens du sang presque sans réserve.Mais cette confiance va progressivement révéler son prix.Après des années passées en ville, le père décide de prendre une retraite anticipée et de retourner vivre au village avec sa femme et ses enfants. Il rêve d'y retrouver ses racines, de transmettre à ses fils ce qu'il a lui-même appris de son père et d'offrir à sa famille une existence plus proche de la terre et des traditions.Les enfants le croient.Ils quittent leur maison, leurs amis, leurs habitudes et leurs rêves pour le suivre.Mais derrière l'image idéalisée du retour aux sources se cache une réalité bien différente.Le confort disparaît. Les difficultés financières s'installent. Les enfants découvrent les travaux champêtres, les longues marches pour chercher de l'eau et une existence à laquelle rien ne les avait préparés.Plus douloureux encore, ceux sur qui leur père pensait pouvoir compter commencent à révéler un autre visage.Les silences deviennent pesants.Les tensions apparaissent.Les liens fraternels se fissurent.Et lorsque la violence puis le deuil frappent la famille, Yves commence à comprendre que les liens du sang ne garantissent ni la loyauté, ni la protection, ni l'amour.Inspiré de l'histoire familiale de son auteur, Le Prix de la confiance - Tome 1: Le poids des liens du sang raconte le basculement d'une enfance relativement protégée vers une réalité faite de déracinement, de désillusions et d'épreuves.À travers le regard d'un enfant qui voit progressivement son héros, son père, confronté aux conséquences de ses propres choix, Yves Noël TIATI à AMANG interroge une conviction profondément ancrée dans nos sociétés: peut-on réellement faire confiance aux siens simplement parce qu'ils sont de notre sang Un récit familial profondément personnel sur la confiance, la filiation, l'éducation, les traditions, les blessures invisibles et ces épreuves qui obligent parfois un enfant à grandir beaucoup trop vite.…
