Powieść

From the celebrated author of "The English Patient" and "Anil's Ghost" comes a remarkable, intimate novel of intersecting lives that ranges across continents and time. In the 1970s in Northern California a father and his teenage daughters, Anna and Claire, work their farm with the help of Coop, an enigmatic young man who makes his home with them. Theirs is a makeshift family, until it is shattered by an incident of violence that sets fire to the rest of their lives. Divisadero takes us from San Francisco to the raucous backrooms of Nevada's casinos and eventually to the landscape of southern France. As the narrative moves back and forth through time and place, we find each of the characters trying to find some foothold in a present shadowed by the past.

Od uznanego autora „The English Patient” i „Anil's Ghost” pochodzi niezwykła, intymna powieść o przecinających się życiach, która obejmuje kontynenty i czasy. W latach 70. w północnej Kalifornii ojciec i jego nastoletnie córki, Anna i Claire, pracują na farmie z pomocą Coopa, enigmatycznego młodego mężczyzny, który mieszka z nimi. Ich rodzina jest prowizoryczna, dopóki nie zostaje rozbita przez incydent przemocy, który podpala resztę ich życia. Divisadero zabiera nas z San Francisco do hałaśliwych zapleczy kasyn w Nevadzie, a ostatecznie do krajobrazu południowej Francji. W miarę jak narracja porusza się tam i z powrotem w czasie i miejscu, widzimy, że każda z postaci próbuje znaleźć jakiś punkt zaczepienia w teraźniejszości, na którą cień rzuca przeszłość.

Powieść

Two brothers from a small Iranian mountain village-Saladin, who has always dreamed of leaving, and Ali, who has never given it a thought-are forced to flee for their lives in the aftermath of a political killing. The journey is beset by trouble from the start, but over the treacherous mountains they go, on foot to Istanbul and onward by freighter to the Azores.There, after a painful parting, Saladin alone continues on the final leg, on a cargo plane all the way to Los Angeles. He will have a new life in California, but will never be whole again without his beloved brother and the living heritage that has always defined him. The Walking is the second novel in a trilogy about Khadivi's homeland of Iran, a country poised between the ancient and the modern and tossed by political winds that have buffeted the entire globe. Here, Khadivi tells the story of exodus from homeland, an experience that hundreds of thousands of Iranians underwent, and which millions of others, from different places around the world, have also experienced. In the story of two brothers, Khadivi brilliantly explores the tension alive in all immigrants, between the love and attachment to the place they must leave, and the hopes and dreams that lie in the places they are headed.
