Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Paula Abramo's Fiat Lux evokes the poet's ancestors who were political refugees from Italy and Eastern Europe to Brazil and then from Brazil to Bolivia and finally Mexico. At the same time, it is a meditation on the act of writing poetry and bringing characters to life with fidelity and imagination. The hinge connecting the two themes is the recurring image of striking a match. (Abramo's grandmother worked in a match factory in Brazil producing the brand called Fiat Lux, Latin for "let there be light.") Abramo lives and works in Mexico City. When Words Without Borders asked local writer Lucia Duero, "what writers from here should we read?" she selected a single book by a living author: "Fiat Lux by Paula Abramo, a great story about the human journey and courage, marvelously captured in the poetics of everyday life."

Entre os ativistas de esquerda estavam não apenas nomes como Mário Pedrosa, o prà prio Fúlvio e outros membros da famÃlia Abramo, mas muita gente anà nima, figuras esquecidas que, como já observou Antonio Candido, âformam o miolo da histà ria e por vezes exprimem o que há nela de mais humanoâ. Escrito a partir de um duplo exÃlio â" o do avà , que fugiu da polÃcia de Vargas em 1938, e o do pai, que se refugiou no Mà xico para escapar à ditadura militar dos anos 1960 â", Fiat Lux conecta distintas gerações e geografias e, graças à tradução de Gustavo Pacheco, devolve à cultura brasileira uma experiência que à nossa, mas estava afastada de nà s. …
