Kurt Vonnegut nebyl jen přední americký prozaik, ale též vyhledávaný a oblíbený veřejný řečník. Výbor z jeho projevů nyní vychází pod názvem No není to krása? Najdeme zde devět autorových proslovů; jeden z nich byl pronesen u příležitosti přebírání prestižní ceny Carla Sandburga, jeden na shromáždění Indianské unie občanských svobod a sedm zbylých na různých univerzitních promocích (což je přímo vonnegutovsky paradoxní, vzhledem k tomu, že sám Vonnegut nikdy univerzitu nedostudoval). Netřeba se však bát nějaké mravokárné suchařiny - Vonnegutovy projevy si co do výstavby, čtivosti a vtipnosti s ničím nezadají s jeho prózami. I v nich autor předvádí svou typickou ironii a sarkasmus, i v nich dokáže mezi drsné špílce nenápadně propašovat svůj humanismus a empatii, i v nich vyslovuje nejednu základní pravdu a přitom na čtenáře - či posluchače - spiklenecky pomrkává. No není to krása? Kurt Vonnegut jr. (1922-2007) patřil k nejoceňovanějším a nejoblíbenějším americkým spisovatelům druhé poloviny 20. století a od 60. let, kdy si ho přisvojili studenti amerických univerzit, požíval pověsti autora kultovního. Jeho romány lze považovat za společenské prózy (on sám je tak označoval), ale z běžně chápaných hranic tohoto žánru se od začátku tvrdošíjně přesouvají do sfér literatury humorné, groteskní, protiválečné, antiutopické či vědeckofantastické.

Audiokniha: „Někdy si myslím, že zrovna v tomhletom je malér světa: moc vystydlejch mrtvol na těch nejvyšších místech.“ Sci-fi román o lidské zaslepenosti, který dlouho nepustíte z hlavy. Kolíbku, která vyšla v roce 1963, považoval Kurt Vonnegut za jeden ze svých nejlepších románů. Ironicky v něm komentuje stav Spojených států v šedesátých letech 20. století, kdy na Západě rostla obliba hippies, východního náboženství i konzumace drog, studená válka byla v plném proudu a vzrůstala vojenská podpora USA ve válce ve Vietnamu. Vonnegutův vypravěč pracuje na knize o tom, co dělali význační Američané v den svržení první atomové bomby. Pátrá i po fiktivním otci jaderné zbraně a při tom narazí na další ničivý objev – tzv. led typu 9, který mrzne při pokojové teplotě. Další stopy ho zavedou do fiktivního karibského státu, kde nečekaně dosáhne vysokého postavení, schyluje se ale k apokalypse… Vonnegutova kniha je ironickou sondou do lidského nitra, kde se skrývá touha po moci i po něčem vyšším.

Kriminálník je ideální knihou pro čtenáře, kteří s Kurtem Vonnegutem ještě nemají žádnou zkušenost, ale chtějí s ním začít. Tento román totiž neodkazuje k jiným autorovým dílům, jako řada z těch ostatních, ale soustředí se přísně na vyprávění hlavního hrdiny Waltera Starbucka, který byl po letech propuštěn z vězení a hodlá radikálně změnit svůj život. Jeho vyprávění přeskakuje v čase z minula do budoucna a stává se originální, vtipnou a satirickou kritikou amerického kapitalismu.

Kurt Vonnegut zastával celý život pozici důrazného odpůrce válek a jakéhokoli násilí a ve svých textech často zpracovával, s humorem a ironií sobě vlastní, neutuchající a nezvladatelnou lidskou náklonnost ke zlu. V knize je text vracející se znovu k tématu amerického bombardování Drážďan na konci druhé světové války, text o třech vojácích, kteří si představují své milované jídlo, jež si dají, až se vrátí z války domů, text o tom, jak je nemožné uchránit své děti před svody násilí, a další. Dvanáct dosud nepublikovaných textů dovoluje nahlédnout do úvah muže, který byl vojákem, spisovatelem, umělcem, rodičem i člověkem usilujícím neúnavně o nápravu světa.

A significant catalogue of Pakistani-American artist Huma BhabhaÂ’s layered and nuanced sculptures and works on paper that center on a reinvention of the figure and its expressive possibilities.Through the artistÂ’s fusion of materials and influences, BhabhaÂ’s work unites the ancient and the futuristic, evoking both familiarity and otherworldliness. Her formally innovative practice pulls from a wide range of references, from those that span the history of art to quotidian influences such as science fiction and horror films and the makeshift structures and detritus of urban life. Instinctive and rigorous, her work brings diverse aesthetic, cultural, and psychological touchstones into contact with matters of surface, materiality, and formal construction. This publication highlights BhabhaÂ’s ability to move between a wide range of media and forms, creating deeply resonant hybrid figures that seem to simultaneously dwell in the past, present, and future. Published on the occasion of two concurrent exhibitions at David Zwirner in New York in 2024, Welcome . . . to the one who came includes a text by the curator Tausif Noor that investigates the theme of alienation in BhabhaÂ’s work. In his essay, the curator and writer Peter Eleey situates her practice within the arc of art-historical models and contextualizes her first foray into working with cast iron.

Koritha Mitchell analyzes canonical texts by and about African American women to lay bare the hostility these women face as they invest in traditional domesticity. Instead of the respectability and safety granted white homemakers, black women endure pejorative labels, racist governmental policies, attacks on their citizenship, and aggression meant to keep them in their place. Tracing how African Americans define and redefine success in a nation determined to deprive them of it, Mitchell plumbs the works of Frances Harper, Zora Neale Hurston, Lorraine Hansberry, Toni Morrison, Michelle Obama, and others. These artists honor black homes from slavery and post-emancipation through the Civil Rights era to post-racial America. Mitchell follows black families asserting their citizenship in domestic settings while the larger society and culture marginalize and attack them, not because they are deviants or failures but because they meet American standards. Powerful and provocative, From Slave Cabins to the White House illuminates the links between African American women s homemaking and citizenship in history and across literature.
