Limonov: Penguin Modern Classics
Autor Emmanuel Carrère Traducere de John Lamberten Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 oct 2015
Limonov is not a fictional character, but he could have been. He's lived a hundred lives. He was a hoodlum in Ukraine, an idol of the Soviet underground, punk-poet and valet to a billionaire in Manhattan, fashion writer in Paris, lost soldier in the Balkans, and now, in the chaos after the fall of communism a charismatic party leader of a gang of political desperados. Limonov sees himself as a hero, but he is also a bastard. Carrere suspends judgment. Carrère decided to write about Limonov because he thought "that his life, romantic and reckless, tells us something, not just about Limonov or Russia, but the story of all of us after the end of World War II."

Recenzii
He's
the
best
kind
of
writer,
not
just
a
bestseller
but
a
man
who
is
not
afraid
to
leave
the
comfort
zone
of
his
desk,
go
out
into
the
world,
take
risks,
and
get
his
shoes
dirty
...
His
"non-fiction
novel",Limonov,
has
two
explicit
modes
-
part
adventure
story,
part
cultural-historical
analysis
...
it
is
about
Carrère's
exploration
of
himself,
his
Russian
heritage,
and
what
it
means
to
be
a
European
after
the
second
world
war,
especially
since
the
end
of
the
cold
war
I lovedLimonovby Emmanuel Carrère, which happens to be a book about a Russian guy. Like all of Carrère's work it's a sort of masterclass in creative writing
Carrère covers a lot of ground with cool honesty and careful humanity
A beguiling writer . . . Graceful and important
You might not have heard of [Limonov], and after you have read this you might wish you had not heard of him, but you will certainly have enjoyed reading about his life, thanks to the verve of Emmanuel Carrère's exhilarating narration. You will probably also understand considerably more about the country that produced such a narcissistic and controversial figure, whom the author finds alluring and repellent in equal measure . . . Carrère has seized on Limonov's projection of himself as a literary hero (or anti-hero) straight out of the pages of Dostoyevsky, Celine, or Henry Miller, and run with it
This is an extraordinary, fantastic book about an extraordinary, fantastic life. It's billed as a novel, can be read as a novel and would be a good novel if Eduard Limonov had never existed. But he does . . . you will learn an awful lot about Russia now and in the days of the Soviets
Russia, they say, cannot be understood with the mind alone, and neither can her looniest son to date, Edichka Limonov. It also takes a heart, a spleen, a liver and this beautiful book by France's greatest writer, Emmanuel Carrère. Get ready for the last real adventure of the 20th Century!
To paraphrase Calvino, Emmanuel Carrèrre'sLimonovis a book about two things: Limonov, and everything else ... This virtuosically unclassifiable thing is somehow at once the liveliest of novels, the most illuminating of biographies, and the most consequential of philosophical inquiries - a loopy, hilarious, gut-punching quest after the shifting spirits of war, loyalty, discipline, pity, empathy, scorn, vitality, honor, ego, and, above all, the heroism of decency
There are few great writers in France today, and Emmanuel Carrère is one of them
