Dream of Fair to Middling Women - Samuel Beckett

Beckett’s first ‘literary landmark’ (St Petersburg Times) is a wonderfully savoury introduction to the Nobel Prize-winning author. Written in 1932, when the twenty-six-year-old Beckett was struggling to make ends meet, the novel offers a rare and revealing portrait of the artist as a young man. When submitted to several publishers, all of them found it too literary, too scandalous or too risky; it was only published posthumously in 1992. As the story begins, Belacqua – a young version of Molloy, whose love is divided between two women, Smeraldina-Rima and the little Alba – ‘wrestles with his lusts and learning across vocabularies and continents, before a final “relapse into Dublin”’ (New Yorker). Youthfully exuberant and Joycean in tone, Dream is a work of extraordinary virtuosity.

Trees are revealed as religious signifiers, historical landmarks, national emblems.Sparked by a simple question: ''What is your favourite tree?'', photographer Adrian Houston discovered a wealth of fascinating stories enmeshed with these giants of the natural world - some of miraculous survival, others of sheltering royalty, or witnessing history, or simply of personal grief and renewal. Adrian photographed each nominated tree looking utterly glorious: spotlit by night, bathed in morning sunshine, wreathed in delicate mist or blazing with autumn colour. From the cedars of Highclere Castle to the plane trees of London, ancient pine woods of the Scottish Highlands to veteran oaks that have stood witness to time; from native stalwarts such as the monumental beech to endangered giant redwoods. This stunning celebration bears witness to the might and majesty of the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Marguerite Yourcenar: A Dream of Stone - Marguerite Yourcenar

A selection of texts on art and artists by the Belgian French novelist and essayist Marguerite YourcenarBest known for her seminal novel Memoirs of Hadrian (1951), an imagined autobiography of the Roman emperor, Yourcenar brings the same depth of inquiry and inventive speculation to her lyric prose on art and artists in this newest title in the ekphrasis series. In these five jewel-like essays, Yourcenar meditates on the decay of time, the desire both satiated and refused by art, and the imagery animating the lives, works, and dreams of Michelangelo, Dürer, and Piranesi. And in an intimate mediation on the historical novel, Yourcenar describes her own encounters with how language and sound reveal the past. Together these exquisitely imagined and precise essays explore that fundamental awe—perhaps even the terror—at the heart of an encounter with beauty. An introduction by John Knight sketches the life of this extraordinary writer, and situates Yourcenar’s unique criticism within her attempt to capture the great struggle required to make an enduring work of art. Subtle and learned, Yourcenar’s essays are like stepping stones into the past and the shadowy business of artistic creation. Bringing back into print Yourcenar’s seminal essay “The Dark Brain of Piranesi” ... Unknown localization key: "more"
