Season of Migration to the North
After years of study in Europe, the young narrator of Season of Migration to the North returns to his village along the Nile in the Sudan. It is the 1960s, and he is eager to make a contribution to the new postcolonial life of his country. Back home, he discovers a stranger among the familiar faces of childhood--the enigmatic Mustafa Sa'eed. Mustafa takes the young man into his confidence, telling him the story of his own years in London, of his brilliant career as an economist, and of the series of fraught and deadly relationships with European women that led to a terrible public reckoning and his return to his native land. But what is the meaning of Mustafa's shocking confession? Mustafa disappears without explanation, leaving the young man--whom he has asked to look after his wife--in an unsettled and violent no-man's-land between Europe and Africa, tradition and innovation, holiness and defilement, and man and woman, from which no one will escape unaltered or unharmed. Season of

Comforting Myths
A timely and urgent inquiry by one of global literature's leading lights In this concisely argued and illuminating book, the PEN/Faulkner Award–winning author Rabih Alameddine takes the subject of politics and art head-on, questioning the very premise of dividing these two pillars of culture into an either/or proposition. He reveals how a political dimension enlarges a work of art rather than making it less beautiful or reducing it to a polemic, as we are so often and carelessly taught. But he also ponders what makes art political to begin with: how essential is the artist’s conscious political intent, and what does the reader or viewer contribute to the work’s political capability or significance? In exploring these questions, Alameddine engages intensely with his role as an immigrant and a gay author writing inside a globally dominant, often oblivious culture, and invokes the work of numerous writers, from Tayeb Salih and Aleksandar Hemon to Teju Cole and Salman Rushdie, who also
Mahmoud Darwish : Mellan timjan och kaktus (arabiska), E-bok
Den som vill fördjupa sig i Mahmoud Darwishs poesi bör vara medveten om den kulturella rikedom som genomsyrar hans verk. Hans personliga och poetiska biografi är oskiljaktigt sammanflätad med en kollektiv berättelse, där teman som frånvaro, förlust, fragmentering av jaget och den ständiga pendlingen mellan revolutionär profetisk visshet och existentiell förtvivlan framträder.För att förstå Darwishs poesi fullt ut krävs också en insikt i de mytologiska och historiska lager han bygger på: myterna om Kanaan, Sumer, Babylon, Grekland och det forna Egypten, liksom berättelserna från Gamla testamentet, Koranen och det arabiska språkliga arvet, särskilt den klassiska poesin. Darwish betraktade till exempel Abu Tayeb al-Mutanabbi som en litterär anfader.I sin sista poetiska fas öppnade Darwish sina verk för en universell mänsklig horisont. Genom att utgå från lokala, vardagliga och till synes enkla ämnen – där dikternas första rot finns – lyckades han lyfta det lokala och det vardagliga till en nivå av universella mänskliga dimensioner.

Skin in the Game: Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A bold work from the author of The Black Swan that challenges many of our long-held beliefs about risk and reward, politics and religion, finance and personal responsibility In his most provocative and practical book yet, one of the foremost thinkers of our time redefines what it means to understand the world, succeed in a profession, contribute to a fair and just society, detect nonsense, and influence others. Citing examples ranging from Hammurabi to Seneca, Antaeus the Giant to Donald Trump, Nassim Nicholas Taleb shows how the willingness to accept one's own risks is an essential attribute of heroes, saints, and flourishing people in all walks of life. As always both accessible and iconoclastic, Taleb challenges long-held beliefs about the values of those who spearhead military interventions, make financial investments, and propagate religious faiths. Among his insights: - For social justice, focus on symmetry and risk sharing. You cannot make profits
