Paperback. Condition: New. On a transatlantic flight between Bilbao and New York City, a fictional version of Kirmen Uribe recalls three generations of family history-the inspiration for the novel he wants to write-and ponders how the sea has shaped their stories.The day he knew he was going to die, our narrator's grandfather took his daughter-in-law to the Fine Arts Museum in Bilbao, the de facto capital of the Basque region of northern Spain, to show her a painting with ties to their family. Years later, her son Kirmen traces those ties back through the decades, knotting together moments from early twentieth-century art history with the stories of his ancestors' fishing adventures-and tragedies-in the North Atlantic Ocean. Elegant, fluid storytelling is punctuated by scenes from Kirmen's flight, from security line to airport bar to jet cabin, and reflections on the creative writing process.This original and compelling novel earned debut author Kirmen Uribe the prestigious National Prize for Literature in Spain in 2009. Exquisitely translated from Basque to English by Elizabeth Macklin, skillfully captures the intersections of many journeys: past and present, physical and artistic, complete and still unfolding. Bilbao-New York-Bilbao is the second book commissioned for the Spatial Species series, edited by Youmna Chlala and Ken Chen. The series investigates the ways we activate space through language. In the tradition of Georges Perec's An Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris, Spatial Species titles are pocket-sized editions, each keenly focused on place. Instead of tourist spots and public squares, we encounter unmarked, noncanonical spaces: edges, alleyways, diasporic traces. Such intimate journeying requires experiments in language and genre, moving travelogue, fiction, or memoir into something closer to eating, drinking, and dreaming.
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The American debut of Basque writer Kirmen Uribe's "simple, devastating poems" (Bob Holman) Whenever we're saddened everything looks dark, When we're heartened, again, the world crumbles.Every one of us keeps forever someone else's hidden side, If it's a secret, if a mistake, if a gesture. --from "May" Kirmen Uribe has become one of the best-known Basque-language writers--an important contemporary voice from a vital but largely unknown language. Meanwhile Take My Hand presents Uribe's poetry to American readers in both the original and in the poet Elizabeth Macklin's skillful and award-winning translations. In these poems are the drug addicts of Spanish fishing towns, the paved-over rivers of urbanized medieval cities, the remains of loving relationships, whether entirely uprooted or making do with a companionable silence. The Basque phrase Bitartean heldu eskutik, which became the book's title--Meanwhile Take My Hand--Uribe has said is "what you say when there's nothing at all you can say."

It adds up to a powerful work of autofiction.' - Publishers WeeklyPraise for Kirmen Uribe:'Uribe has succeeded in realizing what is surely an ambition for many writers: a book that combines family, romances and literature, anchored deeply in a spoken culture but also in bookishness - and all without a single note of self-congratulation.' - Times Literary Supplement'Uribe's literature deepens its roots in the Basque Country, but it's completely universal.' - Harvard Book Review'[Uribe's] works enlighten the path for memory.' - Los Angeles Times Book Review Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
