September 1991Aloma
Roman
by Mercè Rodoreda, Angelika Maass, Angelika Maass
Mercè Rodoreda, die bedeutendste Schriftstellerin der modernen katalanischen Literatur, wurde 1908 in Barcelona geboren. Ihre ersten Bücher erschienen bereits in den dreißiger Jahren, darunter der mit dem Preis Crexells ausgezeichnete Roman, Aloma (1938, dt. Aloma 1991). Dann begann ein fast zwanzigjähriges Schweigen: Mercè Rodoreda ging, wie viele republikanische Katalanen, ins Exil nach Paris, bis sie vor den deutschen Truppen in den unbesetzten Teil Frankreichs floh und schließlich nach Genf zog, wo sie als Übersetzerin für die Unesco arbeitete und wieder zu schreiben begann. Hier entstanden die Romane, die sie berühmt machten: La plaça del Diamant (1962, dt. Auf der Plaça del Diamant 1978) und Mirall trencat (1974, dt. Der zerbrochene Spiegel, 2000). Die Erfahrung des Krieges und besonders des Exils durchzieht thematisch das Werk Mercè Rodoredas. Gegenüber dem Realismus ihrer früheren Bücher bewegen sich die Figuren ihrer letzten Romane und Erzählungen in einer eher phantastischen Welt, und die Sprache gewinnt an metaphorischem Reichtum. Mercè Rodoreda starb 1983 in Girona.

Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)August 2018Cuentos TRANS
by Inma Chacón, Fermina Ponce, Germán Padinger, Margarita García Gallardo, Antonio J. Quesada, Sharon E. Smith, Carlos A. Colla, Miquel Bota
Is TRANS an adjective? Is TRANS- a prefix? What is TRANS? What does it mean? Each reader can ask this question from very different perspectives, depending on the moment in time and life trajectory. So you can simultaneously enjoy all the amazing stories in this collection, and playfully challenge your reading preconceptions. TRANS Stories brings together eight narrative voices from different backgrounds, which offer unique approaches to the term “trans”. Some of the inhabitants of this transliterary journey are: a lonely being who celebrates a (happy) birthday; a mother and a daughter who face the coldness of an operating room; a journalist who lives in space, in a colony on Earth; a young civil servant who is confused by the night; a cook and an artist who decide to revolutionize the world of the senses; the wife of an entomologist ready to solve a mystery; a Kabbalist who undergoes a transformation after an outbreak of (ir)reality; and the male models of a painter who are discovered through a game of identities. The characters and voices in these stories are part of a transitory and transcribed space in which nothing, and everything, is what it seems, and in which everything, and nothing, becomes transgressive. These eight stories make TRANS something transfigurative.
