On the tenth anniversary of the return of their battalion from Mozambique, five men attempt to rekindle the fraternal bond that helped them survive the colonial war that was Portugal's Vietnam. In turn, they tell the stories of their lives before, during, and after the revolution that overthrew the long-lived Salazar dictatorship. Internationally acclaimed for his fictionalized memoir of the Angolan war, Antunes has, with Fado Alexandrino, raised a fabulous Lisbon from the ashes of his four failed but unforgettable protagonists, and in the process has firmly established his reputation as the century's foremost novelist in the Portuguese language. Fado Alexandrino is one of the richest novels to come out of Europe in recent years. Moreover, it reveals a society and culture still too little known to the English-speaking world.

Zehn Jahre nach der Nelkenrevolution von 1974, die den Kolonialkriegen Portugals sowie dem Salazar-Regime ein Ende bereitete, treffen sich fünf Kriegsveteranen zu einem Abendessen mit anschließendem Besäufnis im Rotlichtbezirk Lissabons. Vier Männer, ein einfacher Soldat, ein Fernmeldeoffizier, ein Leutnant und ein Oberstleutnant, erzählen, der fünfte, ein Hauptmann, hört schweigend zu. Seine Schilderung jedoch führt uns durch diese Nacht, in der sich die Stimmen vermischen und überlagern und tief in die Zeiten vor, während und nach der Revolution eintauchen. Aus den Lebensgeschichten dieser unterschiedlichen Männer erwächst ein kritisches Bild der unmittelbaren, gewalttätigen Vergangenheit Portugals. Vom einfachen Soldaten aus dem Elendsviertel, der sich mit Geldgeschenken eines alternden Homosexuellen über Wasser hält, über den naiven Revolutionär, dem die Geheimpolizei die Ideale austreibt, bis zum verweichlichten Befehlshaber, dessen Leben nur aus Drückebergerei, Anpassung und Lügen besteht – Lobo Antunes läßt keinen ungeschoren. Mit geradezu wollüstiger, diabolischer Boshaftigkeit beschwört er die von Kriegstraumata, Sexual- und Minderwertigkeitskomplexen beherrschte Welt dieser Antihelden herauf, erzählt von ihren Wünschen und Sehnsüchten, aber auch von ihren Ängsten und Missetaten. Ein zutiefst menschliches Epos ist dieser, Lobo Antunes’ fünfter Roman, in dem sich Form und Inhalt auf genuine Weise entsprechen.

Against World Literature: On the Politics of Untranslatability argues for a rethinking of comparative literature focusing on the problems that emerge when large-scale paradigms of literary studies ignore the politics of the “Untranslatable”—the realm of those words that are continually retranslated, mistranslated, transferred from language to language, or especially resistant to substitution. In the place of “World Literature”—a dominant paradigm in the humanities, one grounded in market-driven notions of readability and universal appeal—Apter proposes a plurality of “world literatures” oriented around philosophical concepts and geopolitical pressure points. The history and theory of the language that constructs World Literature is critically examined with a special focus on Weltliteratur, literary world systems, narrative ecosystems, language borders and checkpoints, theologies of translation, and planetary devolution in a book set to revolutionize the discipline of comparative literature.

Nyskrivet förord av författaren och förläggaren Gunnar Nirstedt, till António Lobo Antunes Fado Alexandrino. Om Fado Alexandrino: »Antunes har ännu inte fått Nobelpriset. Men det är hög tid.« | Claes Wahlin »En av världens främsta prosaförfattare.« | Mats Gellerfelt, Svenska Dagbladet »Conrads & Faulkners arvtagare.« | George Steiner Modern klassiker om Portugals kolonialmakt År 1975, efter ett decennium av väpnad befrielsekamp, blev Moçambique fritt från kolonialmakten Portugal. Knappa tio år senare återses några arméveteraner på en krog i Lissabon: överstelöjtnanten som blev kvar i det militära, fänriken som gifte in sig i överklassen, förbindelseofficeren som blev vänsterrevolutionär, den menige som nu jobbar i sin morbrors flyttfirma - och en femte, som sitter tyst vid bordet. Vinet och spriten flödar, natten mörknar och historierna griper in i varandra när männen återkallar krigets fasor och berättar om sina liv efter diktaturens fall. På en kraftfull, vindlande prosa tecknar António Lobo Antunes ett splittrat samhälle, där det förflutna kastar skuggor in i samtiden och historiska förbrytelser ännu ligger i tystnad. Men före gryningen kommer mycket att ha förändrats. I översättning av Marianne Eyre och med ett nyskrivet förord av Gunnar Nirstedt, förläggare och författare. ANTÓNIO LOBO ANTUNES [f. 1942] deltog som militärläkare i Portugals krig i Angola. Efter hemkomsten till Lissabon började han skriva romaner, vilka ofta är uppgörelser med Portugals koloniala och fascistiska förflutna. Jämte »Benfica-trilogin« - Betraktelse över själens passioner, Tingens naturliga ordning och Carlos Gardels död - är Fado Alexandrino från 1983 hans mest kända verk.

É o grande romance sobre o 25 de Abril. Narra o regresso e reencontro de quatro ex-combatentes da guerra colonial, o modo como a vida se lhes transtornou e se destruiu. A história prende a atenção pela narrativa articulada, por vezes irresistivelmente divertida, em que personagens e caracteres convincentes, bem desenhados, vivem uma intriga de acontecimentos múltiplos e surpreendentes peripécias de timbre trágico e cómico, do quotidiano banal ao sucesso mais insólito.
