White Shroud (Paperback)
Language: English
Published by Vagabond Voices, Isle of Lewis, 2018
ISBN 10: 1908251840 ISBN 13: 9781908251848
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. White Shroud (Balta drobule, 1958) is considered by many to be Lithuania's most important work of modernist fiction. Drawing heavily on the author's own refugee and immigrant experience, this psychological, stream-of-consciousness work tells the story of an emigre poet working as a bellhop in a large New York hotel during the mid-1950s. Via multiple narrative voices and streams, the novel moves through sharply contrasting settings and stages in the narrator's life in Lithuania before and during WWII, returning always to New York and the recent immigrant's struggle to adapt to a completely different, and indifferent, modern world.Skema uses language and allusion to destabilise, drawing the reader into an intimate, culturally and historically specific world to explore universal human themes of selfhood, alienation, creativity and cultural difference. Written from the perspective of a newcomer to an Anglophone country, the novel encourages an understanding of the complexities of immigrant life.

White Shroud
First Edition
paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Glasgow. 2018. November 2018. Vagabond Voices. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9781908251848. Translated by Karla Gruodis. 212 pages. paperback. keywords: Europe Lithuania Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - White Shroud is considered by many as the most important work of modernist fiction in Lithuanian. Drawing heavily on the author's own immigrant experience, this psychological, stream-of-consciousness work tells the story of an EmigrE poet working as an elevator operator in a large New York hotel during the mid-1950s. The novel moves through sharply contrasting settings and stages in the narrator's life in Lithuania before and during World War II, returning always to New York and the recent immigrant's struggle to adapt to a completely different world. Strong characters and evocative utterances convey how historical context shapes language and consciousness, breaking down any stable sense of self. This translation will appeal to various audiences: readers of modernist and world literature, scholars of Baltic literature and refugee studies, and members of the Lithuanian diaspora unable to access this novel in Lithuanian. Written from the perspective of a newcomer to an Anglophone country, White Shroud encourages readers to better understand the complexities of immigrant life. inventory #43843.

Condition: Nuevo. Antanas Garsva es ascensorista en un gran hotel de Manhattan y también poeta. Su trabajo le va transformando poco a poco en un auténtico autómata, su relación amorosa con la misteriosa Elena flaquea, y lo único que quiere es poder escribir. Garsva también es víctima de extraños malestares que llegan en oleadas, como los fantasmas de su pasado que siguen regresando para atormentarlo. Al seguirlo, el protagonista nos adentra en un torbellino de recuerdos, desde su primera infancia en Lituania hasta su exilio en Nueva York, dejándonos entrever en pequeños detalles que su vida se resquebraja y se abre en grietas abismales.
