Shoshanna's Story
At the end of World War II, Shoshanna, a survivor of Auschwitz, made her way home to Hungary. Of all her family, only she and one sister survived the camps. Years before, her young officer husband had disappeared into Russia. Believing herself a widow, Shoshanna fell under the protection of an older man who, like her, had lost everything in the Holocaust. Having given birth to this man?s child before her beloved soldier returned, she made a choice that would cloud her life?and her daughter?s?ever after. Elaine Kalman Naves is the daughter whose earliest memories were shaped by the consequences of her mother?s decision as well as by haunting family tales. Shoshanna raised Elaine amid a wealth of family lore and all-too-vivid memories: the glamorous and eccentric aunts, handsome suitors and faithless husbands, death by order of the state, and murder at the hand of a lover. This is a lush and exotic family memoir set against momentous events, yet timeless in its truth-telling lessons.

Kniha literárních reportáží a fejetonů na téma pomíjení vypráví o dramatickém životě české básnířky Violy Fischerové; o neblahém osudu majitelky slavné pražské vily Miladě Müllerové; o stárnoucím autorově otci, který přijíždí opakovaně do Prahy, aby ji naposledy viděl; o polských spisovatelkách-dvojčatech, která předstírala, že nejsou Židovkami; o důchodci, který kvůli konci světa prodal svůj majetek; o albánském malíři, jehož obrazy neměly za komunismu ten správný druh optimismu; o polském sochaři-perfomerovi, jehož díla mizí z veřejného prostoru, protože provokují; o ženě, která umlátila dítě, ale nadále zůstala uč...
The Routledge Handbook of the New African Diasporic Literature
The Routledge Handbook of the New African Diasporic Literature introduces world literature readers to the transnational, multivocal writings of immigrant African authors. Covering works produced in Europe, North America, and elsewhere in the world, this book investigates three major aesthetic paradigms in African diasporic literature: the Sankofan wave (late 1960s–early 1990s); the Janusian wave (1990s–2020s); and the Offshoots of the New Arrivants (those born and growing up outside Africa). Written by well-established and emerging scholars of African and diasporic literatures from across the world, the chapters in the book cover the works of well-known and not-so-well-known Anglophone, ...
