Böcker av Yasmina Reza

The woman thinks of her life, her loves and friendships in the full knowledge that the man she is facing is the novelist she admires and would love to speak to, and whose latest work she has tucked in her handbag. Conversations After a BurialSimon Weinberg is dead.

A family's quest to make sense of their shared history. A bittersweet exploration of love, loss, and the chaos of sibling relationships. When family bonds are tested, humor and heartbreak collide.When adult siblings Serge, Jean, and Nana embark on an unexpected road trip to Auschwitz and Birkenau, they take along one of their daughters and plenty of complicated family history. The solemn journey quickly devolves into a tragicomedy of personal grievances, combative banter, and awkward confrontations. Acclaimed novelist and playwright Yasmina Reza masterfully portrays the messiness of family life—where love and resentment intertwine, and the weight of shared history looms large. Serge is a richly layered tale that is as reflective as it is humorous—simultaneously a meditation on memory, an exploration of our love and hate for those closest to us, and a testament to Reza’s gift for finding humanity in chaos.

A very short novel with the power and resonance of a much longer one, Anne-Marie la Beaute is a profound and moving act of remembrance, a clear-eyed assessment of the hard-edged nature of fame, a meditation on aging - and a wonderfully observant and comic exploration of human foibles. In short, another thought-provoking master class in how we perform life by the peerless Yasmina Reza.

Simon Weinberg is dead. And, on a November morning, six people gather at his funeral - brothers and a sister, lovers and in-laws. Mourning allows them a special privilege and, for a few hours, they are isolated in another world under a lingering sun, in the shadow of the deceased.

Or a hysterical night of name-calling, tantrums and tears before bedtime?Boys will be boys, but the adults are usually worse - much worse. Christopher Hampton's translation of Yasmina Reza's sharp-edged new play The God of Carnage premiered at the Gielgud Theatre, London, in March 2008.
