Kafka, Franz

S'ha repetit sovint que Kafka havia decidit destruir tota la seva obra literària. Així, si més no, s'expressa Max Brod, l'amic de l'escriptor i escriptor ell mateix, que en va ser marmessor. I, tanmateix, hi havia dues cartes que Brod va trobar en un calaix, ja mort l'amic, fent pila amb altres papers. Una, en tinta, en la qual hi havia escrita l'adreça de Broch, l'altra, amb llapis, més detallada. En aquesta segona carta, Kafka expressa amb total precisió quines són les obres que vol que siguin conservades: «De tot el que he escrit, són vàlids únicament els llibres La sentència, El fogoner, La metamorfosi, A la colònia penitenciària, Un metge de poble i un conte, Un artista de la fam (els pocs exemplars de Contemplació poden quedar: no vull donar a ningú la molèstia de destruir-los, però no s'ha de reimprimir.» Més endavant, hi afegirà encara tres contes més: «Primer patiment», «Una doneta» i «Josefina la cantant», per tal de fer-ne un llibre, les proves del qual va corregir al sanatori, poc abans de morir. Aquest volum que no pretén prendre partit ni tampoc establir cap cànon recull tots aquests títols, compostos, a més, seguint la presentació tipogràfica prevista pel seu autor.

The Wolves Of Eternity

Knausgard, Karl Ove

In 1986, twenty-year-old Syvert Løyning returns from the military to his mother’s home in southern Norway. One evening, his dead father comes to him in a dream. Realizing that he doesn’t really know who his father was, Syvert begins to investigate his life and finds clues pointing to the Soviet Union. What he learns changes his past and undermines the entire notion of who he is. But when his mother becomes ill, and he must care for his little brother, Joar, on his own, he no longer has time or space for lofty speculations.In present-day Russia, Alevtina Kotov, a biologist working at Moscow University, is traveling with her young son to the home of her stepfather, to celebrate his eightieth birthday. As a student, Alevtina was bright, curious and ambitious, asking the big questions about life and human consciousness. But as she approaches middle-age, most of that drive has gone, and she finds herself in a place she doesn’t want to be, without really understanding how she got there. Her stepfather, a musician, raised her as his own daughter, and she was never interested in learning about her biological father, when she finally starts looking into him, she learns that he died many years ago and left two sons, Joar and Syvert.Years later, when Syvert and Alevtina meet in Moscow, two very different approaches to life emerge. And as a bright star appears in the sky, it illuminates the wonder of human existence and the mysteries that exist beyond our own worldview. Set against the political and cultural backdrop of both the 1980s and the present day, The Wolves of Eternity is an expansive and affecting book about relations—to one another, to nature, to the dead.
