      [2014], Guernica Editions Call No: QWF 843.54 D942b    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Essential translations series   Volume: 19.Summary Note: A woman, following a visit to Auschwitz, meditates on the possibility -- or impossibility -- of continuing to live, following the killing of millions in death camps. The subject is not new. But Louise Dupré makes this horror present again, while at the same time emphasizing the need to go beyond it. Being a parent, as is the anonymous "you" in the book, is to both witness this horror and to raise children who are unaware of this terror, whose innocence seems to make perfect victims of them. It is to hold a child "above the flames," desperately seeking to protect them and, through them, to save ourselves.

      2017., Guernica Editions Call No: QWF 811.54 D942r   Edition: First edition.    Availability:1 of 1     At Your Library Series Title: Essential translations series   Volume: 38Summary Note: "Rooms is lyrical and meditative, painterly, erotic and philosophical. The book is thematically and structurally a unity, but a unity of many parts, one and multiple. Rooms, many-chambered, purposeful and highly stylized yet light, light and airy as a beehive. Rooms plays like a late 20th century blues-inflected jazz. There are multiple melodies, linked through motifs and memory: recurrent variations on several themes -- childhood, life and death, love, memory and duration. Throughout, you find yourself lending the poems your soul as well as your ear."--Provided by publisher.
