Condition: Good. First Edition. Het hiernamaals van Do?a Lisa gaat over het leven in wat Eric de Brabander eens 'de kakofonische orkestbak van de Cariben' noemde, ook over ?verleven, maar vooral over menswaardig leven.Het is vrijdag 30 mei 1969 als Boyo Raven ziet hoe een molotovcocktail zijn tandartsenpraktijk in de as legt. Ee…n arbeidersstaking mondt uit in geweld. Winkels worden geplunderd. 'De macht van het noodlot is voor eenieder onontkoombaar.' De woorden van Boyo's vader klinken onheilspellend. In zijn oude vissersboot zet Boyo koers richting Venezuela, weg van een brandend Cura?ao, samen met zijn vriend Kai, de visser. En met hun tot de rolstoel veroordeelde vriend JonJon, die zelf zijn leven al te lang vindt duren.In Tucacas wil Boyo een nieuwe, polyester boot uit ??n mal laten maken. Hij valt voor de weduwe Do?a Lisa, de eigenares van het fabriekje waar de polyester in lagen in de houten mal gegoten wordt. Boyo raakt verstrikt in haar dodelijke machts-strijd met een projectontwikkelaar. Overhaast kiezen de mannen zee in hun tot Do?a Lisa gedoopte nieuwe boot voor een lange terugtocht naar Cura?ao. Met welk doel? De wijze woorden van Boyo's vader dreigen opnieuw bewaarheid te worden.Eric de Brabander (1953) groeide op op Cura?ao. Hij studeerde tandheelkunde in Nederland, werkte enige tijd aan een universiteit in New York en keerde daarna definitief terug naar Cura?ao. Het hiernamaals van Do?a Lisa is zijn eerste roman.; Puntgaaf ex., ongebroken rug, schoon en fris.

Hardback. Condition: New. Originally published in Dutch as Het hiernamaals van Doña Lisa, The Life Everlasting of Doña Lisa is a hard-boiled, minimalist, postmodern novel about the perennial problems of postcolonialism. This is a tale of a failed attempt to escape Trinta di Mei, the postcolonial revolt of May 30, 1969, on the Du…tch Caribbean island of Curaçao. Edgar Raven, nicknamed Boyo, the central character, makes the fateful decision to abandon Curaçao temporarily during these chaotic events. He leaves behind the burned-out husk of his home and dental practice with nothing more than some cash in his pocket and a few essentials, bringing with him his two closest friends, Kai, a fisherman, and JonJon, a retired marine engineer now paralyzed and condemned to a wheelchair. Together they travel to Venezuela for a "little vacation" and to buy a new fishing boat. This choice unleashes an avalanche of consequences, described in a narrative style that seems like a digressive festival of ideas and philosophies, intellectual duets and arias, stitched together with the clipped and brutal realism of the narration. But the plot leaves Boyo in the company of Sophoclean tragic figures, as close to oblivion as one can come without giving in to it entirely.A major new contribution to Founding Fictions of the Dutch Caribbean, and a landmark translation, The Life Everlasting of Doña Lisa will appeal to readers interested in the history of the Caribbean, lovers of postmodernist literature, and those teaching courses on Caribbean and postcolonial literature.
