El otro y su doble

In Search of a Beginning
This memoir of Graham Greene's life is by his long-term companion.
L'autre et son double
Ce recueil d'entretiens est un bon complément à l'autobiographie publiée en 1971 par Greene sous le titre ##Une sorte de vie##. L'auteur parle de ses dissensions intérieures; de son métier d'écrivain; de son catholicisme; de ses voyages-reportages en Haïti, au Panama, en Indochine, etc; de son "charisme du désespoir", etc. Chacun des neuf chapitres est précédé d'un bon texte (env. 2 pages) introductoire. Vivant et très accessible. On sent que l'auteur aime accentuer son côté avocat du diable et empêcheur-de-tourner-en-rond... et qu'il préserve jalousement son intimité.

Not Born a Refugee Woman
Not Born a Refugee Woman is an in-depth inquiry into the identity construction of refugee women. It challenges and rethinks current identity concepts, policies, and practices in the context of a globalizing environment, and in the increasingly racialized post-September 11th context, from the perspective of refugee women. This collection brings together scholar_practitioners from across a wide range of disciplines. The authors emphasize refugee women's agency, resilience, and creativity, in the continuum of domestic, civil, and transnational violence and conflicts, whether in flight or in resettlement, during their uprooted journey and beyond. Through the analysis of local examples and international case studies, the authors critically examine gendered and interrelated factors such as location, humanitarian aid, race, cultural norms, and current psycho-social research that affect the identity and well being of refugee women. This volume is destined to a wide audience of scholars, students, policy makers, advocates, and service providers interested in new developments and critical practices in domains related to gender and forced migrations.
Cuba's Wild East
As a whole, Cuban history, culture, and art are often misconstrued with a heritage specific to Havana. In Cuba's Wild East, Peter Hulme attempts to right this wrong, focusing on the eastern region of the island and the specific fictions, poetries, locations, and histories that constitute a specific eastern culture. Examining a region with a rich insurgent and revolutionary history, Peter Hulme examines the stories of rebellion, heroism, and sacrifice that are so intimately tied to the places and sites that have now become part of a national pantheon, at the same time showing the international influence of US journalists and novelists whose presence in Cuban literature alongside native Cuban writers further defines the region as a place of encounter.
