Women

Autor Mihail Sebastian Editat de Cheryl Robson Comentarii de Gabi Reigh
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 aug 2020
The frustrated wife of a French-Tunisian plantation owner, a mysterious older woman, a world weary tomboy, an unhappy mistress, a Parisian factory worker destined for tragedy, an acrobat turned cabaret sensation - these are the women whose lives are linked by their relationship with one man - Ștefan Valeriu. Divided into four separate stories connected by one man, Women takes us from Ștefan's amorous entanglements at an Alpine lake resort, to his life in Bucharest and Paris, as each of the women in his life opens up new worlds for him. Women is a hymn to love in all its forms, romantic or platonic, sometimes reckless, often glorious and always, ultimately, ephemeral.

Recenzii

I love Sebastian's courage, his lightness, and his wit
Sebastian belongs in the pantheon of classic authors
A compelling portrait of desire
Nothing I have read is more affecting than Mihail Sebastian's magnificent, haunting 1934 novel,For Two Thousand Years.
His prose is like something Chekhov might have written - the same modesty, candour, and subtleness of observation
Sebastian's observations of the complex physical and emotional details of romantic intrigue are perceptive and affectionate....these concise stories...showcase Sebastian's brilliant eye for emotional detail
If there is any justice [Sebastian's] posthumous profile will increase
Sebastian died a victim of an automobile accident in 1946, having survived the Second World War and the Holocaust. That fatal moment robbed the literary world of a unique voice
A minor masterpiece of voice, mood and emotion
