«Mi dicono spesso che sono pessimista, che non credo nella forza della gente, che ce l’ho con Putin e non vedo altro. «Vedo tutto, io. È questo, il mio problema. Vedo le cose belle e vedo le brutte. Vedo che le persone vogliono cambiare la propria vita per il meglio ma che non sono in grado di farlo, e che per darsi un contegno continuano a mentire a se stesse per prime, concentrandosi sulle cose positive e facendo finta che le negative non esistano. «Per il mio sistema di valori, è la posizione del fungo che si nasconde sotto la foglia. Lo troveranno comunque, è praticamente certo, lo raccoglieranno e se lo mangeranno. Per questo, se si è nati uomini non bisogna fare i funghi. «Non riesco a rassegnarmi nemmeno alle previsioni demografiche – ufficiali, tra l’altro, del Comitato centrale di statistica – fino a tutto il 2016. Nel 2016 io potrei anche non esserci, come molti altri della mia generazione, ma ci saranno i nostri figli e i nostri nipoti. E davvero non ci vogliamo curare di come e dove vivranno? Se saranno o non saranno vivi?».

Anna Politkovskaya, one of Russia’s most fearless journalists, was gunned down in a contract killing in Moscow in the fall of 2006. Just before her death, Politkovskaya completed this searing, intimate record of life in Russia from the parliamentary elections of December 2003 to the grim summer of 2005, when the nation was still reeling from the horrors of the Beslan school siege. In A Russian Diary, Politkovskaya dares to tell the truth about the devastation of Russia under Vladimir Putin–a truth all the more urgent since her tragic death. Writing with unflinching clarity, Politkovskaya depicts a society strangled by cynicism and corruption. As the Russian elections draw near, Politkovskaya describes how Putin neutralizes or jails his opponents, muzzles the press, shamelessly lies to the public–and then secures a sham landslide that plunges the populace into mass depression. In Moscow, oligarchs blow thousands of rubles on nights of partying while Russian soldiers freeze to death. Terrorist attacks become almost commonplace events. Basic freedoms dwindle daily. And then, in September 2004, armed terrorists take more than twelve hundred hostages in the Beslan school, and a different kind of madness descends. In prose incandescent with outrage, Politkovskaya captures both the horror and the absurdity of life in Putin’s Russia: She fearlessly interviews a deranged Chechen warlord in his fortified lair. She records the numb grief of a mother who lost a child in the Beslan siege and yet clings to the delusion that her son will return home someday. The staggering ostentation of the new rich, the glimmer of hope that comes with the organization of the Party of Soldiers’ Mothers, the mounting police brutality, the fathomless public apathy–all are woven into Politkovskaya’s devastating portrait of Russia today. “If anybody thinks they can take comfort from the ‘optimistic’ forecast, let them do so,” Politkovskaya writes. “It is certainly the easier way, but it is also a death sentence for our grandchildren.” A Russian Diary is testament to Politkovskaya’s ferocious refusal to take the easier way–and the terrible price she paid for it. It is a brilliant, uncompromising exposé of a deteriorating society by one of the world’s bravest writers. Praise for Anna Politkovskaya “Anna Politkovskaya defined the human conscience. Her relentless pursuit of the truth in the face of danger and darkness testifies to her distinguished place in journalism–and humanity. This book deserves to be widely read.” –Christiane Amanpour, chief international correspondent, CNN “Like all great investigative reporters, Anna Politkovskaya brought forward human truths that rewrote the official story. We will continue to read her, and learn from her, for years.” –Salman Rushdie “Suppression of freedom of speech, of expression, reaches its savage ultimate in the murder of a writer. Anna Politkovskaya refused to lie, in her work; her murder is a ghastly act, and an attack on world literature.” –Nadine Gordimer “Beyond mourning her, it would be more seemly to remember her by taking note of what she wrote.” –James Meek

Descontentes com a manipulação das notícias sobre a ex-URSS na imprensa norte-americana, John Steinbeck e Robert Capa partiram para Moscou no início da chamada Guerra Fria. As imagens de Capa - feitas em Moscou, na devastada Stalingrado, na Ucrânia e na Geórgia - e os textos do livro falam sobre a terra russa arrasada pela guerra, os hábitos populares e o comportamento dos anfitriões ligados à cúpula comunista.

A settant’anni dalla prima edizione in America, torna in libreria in tutta la sua bellezza questo reportage culturale sulla gente comune del'Unione Sovietica, uno dei paesi meno esplorati dai giornalisti e reporter mondiali. Nel 1946 Winston Churchill annunciò che una “cortina di ferro” era calata sull’Europa orientale. Già l’anno seguente poteva dirsi iniziata la Guerra fredda, che sarebbe durata più di quarant’anni. In quel clima lo scrittore John Steinbeck e l’amico fotografo Robert Capa decisero di partire insieme per un viaggio alla scoperta di quel nemico che era stato l’alleato più forte nella seconda guerra mondiale: l’Unione Sovietica. Ne emerse un resoconto onesto e privo di ideologia sulla vita quotidiana di un popolo che non poteva essere più lontano dall’American way of life. Le pagine del diario e le fotografie che raccontano la vita a Mosca, Kiev, Stalingrado e nella Georgia sono il distillato di un viaggio straordinario e un documento storico unico di un’epoca, salutato dal New York Times come “un libro magnifico”. Steinbeck e Capa riescono nel loro intento di “dare un volto al nemico” troppo spesso disumanizzato nella retorica politica. Una notevole lezione di umanità ed empatia che ci ricorda ancor oggi l’importanza di conoscere concretamente luoghi e persone per superare pregiudizi e ignoranza.

The third volume of the collected papers of the ICLA congress "The Many Languages of Comparative Literature" includes contributions that focus on the interplay between concepts of nation, national languages, and individual as well as collective identities. Because all literary communication happens within different kinds of power structures - linguistic, economic, political -, it often results in fascinating forms of hybridity. In the first of four thematic chapters, the papers investigate some of the ways in which discourses can establish modes of thinking, or how discourses are in turn controlled by active linguistic interventions, whether in the context of the patriarchy, war, colonialism, or political factions. The second thematic block is predominantly concerned with hybridity as an aspect of modern cultural identity, and the cultural and linguistic dimensions of domestic life and in society at large. Closely related, a third series of papers focuses on writers and texts analysed from the vantage points of exile and exophony, as well as theoretical contributions to issues of terminology and what it means to talk about transcultural phenomena. Finally, a group of papers sheds light on more overtly violent power structures, mechanisms of exclusion, Totalitarianism, torture, and censorship, but also resistance to these forms of oppression. In addition to these chapters, the volume also collects a number of thematically related group sections from the ICLA congress, preserving their original context.
