Tiger Work

Autor Ben Okri
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 iul 2023
'Both a work of lyrical imagination and a warning about the dangers we will face unless we take immediate action' New Yorker 'An artist's ardent plea for change' Kirkus This earth that we love is in grave danger because of us. Forests are becoming legends, rare as unicorns...If we continue to live as we do now, there will be no world left for us to fix, Booker Prize-winner Ben Okri argues in this evocative collection. He imagines messages - sent to us from beyond the end, from those who saw it coming - exhorting us to change now.Combining fiction, essay and poetry, Tiger Work displays Okri's classic blend of storytelling, fantasy and magic.

Recenzii

An artist's ardent plea for change
Approaches the potential cataclysm of climate change from many perspectives in this multi-genre collection, which is both a work of lyrical imagination and a warning about the dangers we will face unless we take immediate action.
PRAISE FOR BEN OKRI: 'Ben Okri is that rare thing, a literary and social visionary, a writer for whom all three - literature, culture and vision - are profoundly interwoven' Ali Smith. 'Where fiction's master of enchantments stares down a real horror, and without blinking or flinching, produces a work of beauty, grace and uncommon power' Marlon James on The Freedom Artist. 'Okri's rhythmic, folk tale-like prose is beguiling.' Sunday Times on The Freedom Artist. 'Okri's otherworldly literary approach has produced masterpieces.' Independent on Sunday. 'Okri's writing has a light-as-air elegance, yet its seriousness keeps the stories gravity-bound.'
