Maya Ombasic (28 results)

Paperback. Condition: New. AN OPENCANADA SUMMER READ 2019In the south of Bosnia and Herzegovina lies Mostar, a medieval town on the banks of the emerald Neretva, which flows from the "valley of sugared trees" through sunny hills to reach the Adriatic Sea. This idyllic locale is the scene of Maya Ombasic's childhood-until civil war breaks out in Yugoslavia and the bombs begin to fall. Her family is exiled to Switzerland, and after a brief return, they leave again for Canada. While Maya adapts to their new home, her father never does, refusing even to learn the language of his new country.A portmanteau of Mostar and nostalgia, Mostarghia evokes Ombasic's yearning for a place that no longer exists: the city before the civil war, when its many ethnicities interacted in a spirit of civility and in harmony. It refers as well to Andrei Tarkovsky's classic film Nostalghia, the viewing of which illuminated the author's often explosive relationship with her father, a larger-than-life figure who was both influence and psychological burden: he inspired her interest, and eventual career, in philosophy, and she was his translator, his support, his obsession. Along with this portrait of a man described by turns as passionate, endearing, maddening, and suffocating, Ombasic deftly constructs a moving personal account of what it means to be a refugee and how a generation learns to thrive despite the struggles of its predecessors.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Istanbul est pour Pamuk ce que Paris est pour Baudelaire : une source inépuisable d'inspiration et de spleen. Mais en suivant la vie des écrivains étrangers de passage à Istanbul, Pamuk s'aperçoit que cette apparente mélancolie n'est qu'une strate parmi d'autres dans une ville palimpseste qui cache dans ses entrailles toutes les altérités. A travers les lunettes de la déconstruction, l'auteure démontre qu'à partir de la figure du double qui obsède Pamuk, le romancier propose un autre espace-temps quelque part entre la réalité et la fiction, entre l'Est et l'Ouest, entre la tradition et la modernité. 230 pp. Französisch.…
