Abstract

Lydia Davis returns with a timeless collection of essays on literature and language. 'A writer as mighty as Kafka, as subtle as Flaubert, and as epoch-making, in her own way, as Proust'(Ali Smith) Lydia Davis gathered a selection of her non-fiction writing for the first time in 2019 with Essays. Now, she continues the project with Essays Two, focusing on the art of translation, the learning of foreign languages through reading, and her experience of translating, amongst others, Flaubert and Proust, about whom she writes with an unmatched understanding of the nuances of their styles. Every essay in this book is a revelation.

Abstract

De nieuwe verhalen van Lydia Davis zijn soms letterlijk oneliners. Zoals 'Bloomington', dat in zijn geheel luidt: 'Nu ik hier een tijdje ben, kan ik met een gerust hart zeggen dat ik hier nooit eerder ben geweest.' Ook kan het verhaal een nauwgezette observatie zijn, of een klaagbrief; het kan ontleend zijn aan de correspondentie van Flaubert, of zijn inspiratie vinden in een droom. Wat niet varieert in 'De taal van dingen in huis' is de kracht van het subtiel getoonzette proza. Davis is een scherp waarnemer; ze is ironisch, geestig of bijtend, maar vooral verfrissend. Ze schrijft met een verkwikkende onbevangenheid en geslepen humor over de alledaagse dingen en onthult het mysterieuze, het vervreemdende en het plezierige van het dagelijks leven.https://www.atlascontact.nl/boek/de-taal-van-dingen-in-huis/
