Relationships2021Ask Miechka
by Eugenia Kuznetsova
The story of “Ask Miechka” features four generations of women captured during one summer. Two sisters, Mia and Lilia, come to their “shelter”, their grandmother's old house where they have spent their childhood, in an attempt to put on hold their upcoming life-changing decisions: deciding on immigrating or staying, choosing between a reliable man or wild love. Their grandmother, Thea, is nearing the end of her life and her daughter and the sisters’ mother are fearful to take the place of the oldest woman in the family. The old house, overgrown with weeds, shrubs, and sprawling trees, seems to be frozen in time, lost in oblivion. Yet the sisters bring it back to life: new people come, new cats wander in, pumpkins are grown, and the porch is renovated. The house changes, along with the lives of the women who inhabit it as the summer nears its end. In her debut novel, Eugenia Kuznetsova told a deeply intimate story about the relations between sisters, mothers, and daughters. Vivid dialogues, when the most sensitive things remain unspoken, but somehow felt, define the atmosphere of the story, and highlight the unique ties existing between the generations of women in the family.

Biography & True StoriesMay 2017A Girls' Guide to the Islands
by Suzanne Kamata
The American writer Suzanne Kamata had lived in Japan for more than half of her life, yet she had never explored the small nearby islands of the Inland Sea. The islands, first made famous by Donald Richie’s The Inland Sea 50 years ago, are noted for displaying artwork created by prominent, and sometimes curious, international artists and sculptors: Naoshima’s wealth of museums, including one devoted to 007, Yayoi Kusama’s polka dot pumpkins, Kazuo Katase’s blue teacup, and a monster rising out of a well on the hour in Sakate, called “Anger at the Bottom of the Sea”—to name a few. Spurred by her teen-aged daughter Lilia’s burgeoning interest in art and adventure, Kamata sets out to show her the islands’ treasures. Mother and daughter must confront several barriers on their adventure. Lilia is deaf and uses a wheelchair. It is not always easy to get onto — or off of — the islands, not to mention the challenges of language, culture, and a generation gap. A Girls’ Guide to the Islands takes the reader on a rare visit by a unique mother and daughter team.

The ArtsOctober 2015OCCUPIED AMAZONIA
by João Farkas
The more than two hundred photographs featured in the book Occupied Amazonia stem from the concise and keen eye of the photographer João Farkas, who traveled deep into the Amazon region between the 1980s and 1990s to expose the clichés about the Brazilian North rooted in popular imagination. A space of conflicts and convergences, the Amazon region is revealed in multiple facets, ranging from prospectors to natives, missionaries, land-grabbers and migrants. With texts by Paulo Herkenhoff, Ricardo Lessa, Lilia Moritz Schwarcz and Farkas himself, the book is a challenging invitation for those willing to rediscover and explore new old worlds.

IMAGES OF WOMEN IN THE MODERN WEST
by Isabelle Anchieta
Images of Women in the Modern West is a trilogy authored by the sociologist Isabelle Anchieta. The author traces the process of humanization and individualization of women through images, from the end of the Middle Ages to the Modern. The result of eight years of field research in various countries, the work is divided into three volumes. The first establishes a dialogue between the images of the witches of the Middle Ages and those of the Indian Tupinambas cannibals; the second focuses on the different representations of Maria and Maria Magdalena; the last volume explores the transgressions of Hollywood stars. The works feature presentations by historian Lilia Schwarcz, sociologist Maria Arminda do Nascimento Arruda, and anthropologist Máximo Canevacci.

Archaeological methodology & techniquesMarch 2016Saving The Tsars' Palaces
by Christopher Morgan & Irina Orlova
Millions of people annually visit the great country palaces built by the tsars in a circle round St. Petersburg. Created by artists from all over Europe, with untold serf labour at their disposal, the palaces were intended to impress and they do. Today, in the corner of most rooms, a single black and white photograph shows the same room in 1944, amid the smouldering wreckage found by Russian soldiers returning after the three-year siege of Leningrad. Forced to abandon the palaces, the Nazis vented their anger on the treasures they occupied.The story behind these photographs is in many ways more impressive even than the rooms themselves. It is the story of a relatively small band of talented Russians who were determined not to allow their country’s heritage to be swept away by all the horrors of the twentieth century. The palaces today are truly the work of Russians but restorers have to be self-effacing. There have been books about what they did but not about them. In Saving The Tsars’ Palaces, Christopher Morgan and Irina Orlova vividly recount the remarkable story of those who battled to save the palaces, not just during and after the war, but during the Revolution and the harsh times that followed.

Film theory & criticismOctober 2019Break It to Me Gently
by Richard Bolisay
As a film critic at large, Richard Bolisay has never been interested in the rigid dichotomy between good and bad, not letting movies off easy with a mere pointing of the thumb in either direction. Rather, as borne out by the reviews and festival dispatches in this collection, he burrows into each movie, teasing its furrows and breaking its codes with a forensic exhilaration in defiance of the limited purview and shallow agency typically accorded to so-called film criticism. Break It to Me Gently is a collection of essays as much as it is a collection of times, people, experiences, thoughts, sensations, places, and stories, that finds its center on Filipino film but, like most displays of youthful ambition, tries to hem in histories, tall tales, politics, memoirs, foresights, and journalism, to mimic the raptures and tensions of the period.
