  • - Selected Poems
    av Cees Nooteboom
    269,-

    A collection of poems, selected by Nooteboom himself from more than a dozen Dutch books. Cees Nooteboom is best known in the English-speaking world for his acclaimed novels, essays, and travel writing; however, Nooteboom has always seen himself first and foremost as a poet. He has said, "without poetry my life would be unthinkable." The poems in Light Everywhere are presented in reverse chronological order, reflecting the poet's contemporary perspective on the productivity of more than half a century. The anthology covers his poetic output up to 2013, with an emphasis on his more recent work. New translations of older poems are crafted by award-winning translator David Colmer, lending a consistent voice to the whole collection. When Nooteboom began writing poetry in the Netherlands in 1956, he was considered an outcast for not abiding by the conventional experimental style popular at the time. Instead, he took to learning from poets abroad, translating work by Wallace Stevens, Eugenio Montale, and Pablo Neruda. Nooteboom's work is lucid and mysterious, evocative and elusive, and it is fitting that the collection begins and ends with poems of travel, moving back in time from an elderly man's entanglement and resignation to the detachment and harsh light of youth, with everything in between.

    Der Saigoku-Pilgerweg ist von den vielen Wallfahrten, die man in Japan unternehmen kann, eine der bedeutendsten, längsten - und schwierigsten. Sie umfasst nicht weniger als 33 buddhistische Tempel, die alle Kannon, der vielgestaltigen Göttin der Barmherzigkeit, geweiht sind. Einige von ihnen stehen in und um Kyoto, der einstigen Hauptstadt des Heian-Reiches (794-1185). Andere, die ältesten, liegen in teils unwegsamem Gebirge, einer sogar auf einer Insel. Cees Nooteboom und Simone Sassen haben sich mehrmals auf den Saigoku-Pilgerweg begeben, nahmen langwierige Aufstiege und nicht selten Treppen von mehreren hundert Stufen in Kauf. Simone Sassen photographierte die Tempel in verschiedenen Jahreszeiten: bei Schnee, zur Kirschblüte und mit Herbstlaub - den Höhepunkten des japanischen Jahres. Cees Nooteboom beruft sich in seinen Texten auf die um 1000, also in der Heian-Zeit, von der Hofdame Murasaki Shikubu verfasste Geschichte vom Prinzen Genji, den ersten psychologischen Roman der Weltliteratur. Saigoku, ein Buch zum Lesen und Schauen, entführt in eine fernöstliche Welt der Stille, der Schönheit und uralter Mythen - in ein Japan fernab der geschäftigen Metropolen.

    Creative takes on domesticity and cooking from the constraints of lockdownAs the coronavirus forced the world to close down, nearly everyone found themselves spending a lot more time at home than they had initially anticipated. With most 2020 plans foiled and travel restrictions on the rise, many artists turned to kitchen experiments as a new creative outlet. In Recipes for the Future, 16 culture-makers share the culinary concoctions they made in reaction to their newly disrupted lifestyles, revealing a vision for the future based around the ambition to change and to widen the limits of human imagination. The visions and recipes of these writers, academics, philosophers, singers, visual artists, theater-makers and designers working in the Netherlands and Germany paint a unique portrait of our current moment. Themes of sustainability, domesticity, utopian realities and the role of cultural institutions arise in between recipes for "corona ice cream" and "mushrooms at the end of the world."

  • - A Love Story

    Two men talk in Tokyo. One, a Belgian, is a diplomat. The other, Dutch, is a photographer. What, they wonder, is the real face of Japan? How can they get beyond the European idea of the nation and its people--with its exoticism--and see Japan as it truly is? The Belgian has an idea: he helps the photographer find a model to shoot in front of Mount Fuji as the "typical Japanese." The plan works better than either had imagined--in fact, it works too well: the photographer falls in love, neglects his friend and his career, and, feeling out of place and disillusioned in Holland, returns to Japan as often as possible over the next five years. A reunion is planned: the three will meet again at Mount Fuji. Time, it seems, has stood still . . . except the woman has a secret, and plans of her own. This moving novel of obsession and difference is the latest masterwork from one of the greatest European writers working today, redolent with the power of desire and alive to the limits of our understanding of others.
