Our Voices

Autor Diana Radovan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 mar 2022
A woman in search of herself keeps on turning the kaleidoscope that is memory and life, searching for belonging and purpose, echoing into both past and future in a lyrical, deeply personal confession. Our Voices is a melancholic personal narration of what happened in a given time and place to a young girl and her father in an oppressive system and how their story was carried to the next generation. It is also a warning of what could happen to anyone, anywhere, as well as a scream of indignation against social and political injustice, gender constraints, and historical erasure. Last but not least, it is a book of hope - the hope of integrating familial, historical, and social trauma into a bigger self, through language and nature. Through personal storytelling, including a child perspective, terse poetry, myths, fairy-tales, imagery, social and political criticism, as well as some utopias/manifestos, Our Voices is an overcoming of the persistent horrors of communism and immigration; a book about living in the in-betweens and dreaming ourselves into more than mere survival; an invitation to its readers to bring out their own buried "shameful" family stories, to let them breathe and find resonance in the bigger world.

Descriere

Our Voices is a story of a woman in search of herself that keeps on turning the kaleidoscope that is memory and life over and over again, looking for a meaning that seems to escape her; an echo into both past and future; a lyrical, deeply personal confession.
