The New York Times–bestselling author of Find Me and Call Me by Your Name returns to the essay form with his collection of thoughts on time, the creative mind, and great lives and works Irrealis moods are a category of verbal moods that indicate that certain events have not happened, may never happen, or should or must or are indeed desired to happen, but for which there is no indication that they will ever happen. Irrealis moods are also known as counterfactual moods and include the conditional, the subjunctive, the optative, and the imperative—all best expressed in this book as the might-be and the might-have-been. One of the great prose stylists of his generation, André Aciman returns to the essay form in Homo Irrealis to explore what time means to artists who cannot grasp life in the present. Irrealis moods are not about the present or the past or the future; they are about what might have been but never was but could in theory still happen. From meditations on subway poetry and the temporal resonances of an empty Italian street to considerations of the lives and work of Sigmund Freud, C. P. Cavafy, W. G. Sebald, John Sloan, Éric Rohmer, Marcel Proust, and Fernando Pessoa and portraits of cities such as Alexandria and St. Petersburg, Homo Irrealis is a deep reflection on the imagination’s power to forge a zone outside of time’s intractable hold.

The bestselling author of Find Me and Call Me by Your Name returns to the essay form with this collection of thoughts on time, the creative mind, and great lives and works.The irrealis mood knows no boundaries between what is and what isn't, between what happened and what won't. In more ways than one, the essay about the artists, writers, and great minds gathered in this volume have nothing to do with who I am, or who they were, and my reading of them may be entirely erroneous. But I misread them the better to read myself. From meditations on subway poetry and the temporal resonances of an empty Italian street, to considerations of the lives and work of Sigmund Freud, Constantine Cavafy, W. G. Sebald, John Sloan, Éric Rohmer, Marcel Proust, and Fernando Pessoa, and portraits of cities such as Alexandria and St. Petersburg, Homo Irrealis is a deep reflection of the imagination's power to shape our memories under time's seemingly intractable hold.

EL NUEVO LIBRO DEL AUTOR DE LLÁMAME POR TU NOMBRE Y LEJOS DE EGIPTO , GANADOR DEL WHITING AWARD Y EL LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD, TRADUCIDO A 38 IDIOMAS Y ACLAMADO POR LA CRÍTICA Y LOS LECTORES «Si Proust no hubiera existido, Aciman lo habría inventado». Richard Bernstein, The New York Times «Un libro brillante de un escritor que nunca decepciona». Kirkus Reviews ¿Cuánto de nosotros se borra con el paso del tiempo? ¿Cuánto se queda en los lugares amados? ¿Puede uno regresar a un sitio que nunca existió más allá de su mente? En Homo irrealis, André Aciman nos invita a acompañarlo al territorio de sus recuerdos en un viaje por lugares queridos como Alejandría, Roma, París, San Petersburgo o Nueva York, habitados por las presencias fantasmales de artistas y escritores admirados. De la mano de Proust, Freud, Cavafis, Pessoa, Rohmer, Sebald y muchos más, el autor explora el tiempo irrealis: el del hombre que podría haber sido y no fue, todo lo que podría haber pasado y no pasó, pero que aún podría pasar y está en un limbo entre la fantasía y la realidad. Unas memorias en forma de ensayos en las que el autor de Lejos de Egipto y de Llámame por tu nombre se enfrenta al pasado y al presente, al anhelo y al deseo, en un intento de comprender la veta nostálgica que se cierne sobre su persona y sobre casi toda su obra. «Como Proust, confiriéndole a la vida escrita el estatus de vida. Como Pessoa, prefiriendo la idea a la experiencia. Reflexiones para idealistas y soñadores, sublimadores de la prosaica realidad. [...] Excitante y literario». Paco Cerdá, Babelia «André Aciman, como Jep Gambardella, estaba destinado a la sensibilidad. [...] Homo irrealis es una colección de recuerdos y obsesiones, un autorretrato hecho con distintos espejos y paisajes». Bruno Pardo Porto, ABC «[Aciman ha conseguido] uno de los objetivos del arte del ensayo literario: esa aproximación a la complejidad de todo lo que significa la psique humana». Fernando Sánchez Mayo, Diario de Córdoba «Si quieres entender la obra de este escritor, esta es la obra que necesitas leer». Fantastic Mag «La literatura de André Aciman es nostálgica, pero siempre tratando de salir de todo lo angustioso y negativo del concepto y siempre tratando de escapar de él. [...] Esa sensación de vacío, de choque entre los recuerdos y la realidad están en Homo irrealis». Pepa Blanes (Cadena Ser) «Uno de los mejores ensayistas de los últimos cien años». Susan Salter Reynolds, Los Angeles Review of Books «Una exploración de lo irreal diabólicamente compleja y reveladora. Los ensayos que discuten lo irreal en la obra de sus artistas más admirados, como el tríptico de ensayos sobre el cineasta Eric Rohmer, que casi se pueden leer como cartas de amor». The Irish Times «Un lento paseo por capitales fascinantes, un tierno recuerdo de viejas y raras películas, una fresca contemplación de los gigantes literarios modernistas: así podríamos describir el material de la nueva colección de ensayos de André Aciman, pero no su magia». The Boston Globe «Una nueva colección de ensayos brillante y cautivadora [...]: felicidad pura». David Mikics, Tablet «Leer a André Aciman es como enamorarse». Xavi Ayén, La Vanguardia «Un maestro de la sensualidad y los detalles exquisitos». Sagrario Fernández-Prieto, La Razón

Один из величайших прозаиков своего поколения, Андре Асиман, в книге Homo Irrealis в форме эссе исследует, что значит время для художников и писателей, которые не могут постичь жизнь в настоящем. Понятие «ирреалис» не о прошлом или будущем – оно о том, что могло бы быть, никогда не происходило, но гипотетически еще может случиться. От размышлений о поэзии метро и временных резонансов пустых итальянских улиц до описания жизней и творчества Зигмунда Фрейда, Константиноса Кавафиса, Винфрида Зебальда, Джона Слоуна, Эрика Ромера, Марселя Пруста и Фернандо Пессоа и портретов Александрии и Санкт-Петербурга, Homo Irrealis – это анализ силы воображения, способного создать место вне крепкой хватки времени.В формате PDF A4 сохранен издательский макет книги.

'Magnificent.' New York Times 'Unforgettable.' Times Literary Supplement 'Exquisite.' New Yorker From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Call Me by Your Name and Find Me, now available to preorder in paperback. From a youthful infatuation with a cabinet maker in a small Italian fishing village, to a passionate yet sporadic affair with a woman in New York, to an obsession with a man he meets at a tennis court, Enigma Variations charts one man's path through the great loves of his life. Paul's intense desires, losses and longings draw him closer, not to a defined orientation, but to an understanding that 'heartache, like love, like low-grade fevers, like the longing to reach out and touch a hand across the table, is easy enough to live down'. André Aciman casts a shimmering light over each facet of desire, to probe how we ache, want and waver, and ultimately how we sometimes falter and let go of the very ones we want the most. We may not know what we want. We may remain enigmas to ourselves and to others. But sooner or later we discover who we've always known we were.

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Call Me by Your Name and Find Me, a memoir of an extraordinary life. '[A] mesmerizing portrait of a now vanished world. Aciman's story of Alexandria is the story of his own family, a Jewish family with Italian and Turkish roots that tied its future to Egypt and made its home there for three generations, only to find itself peremptorily expelled by the Government in the early 1960's. It is the story of a fractious clan of dreamers and con men and the emotional price they would pay for exile, the story of a young boy's coming of age and his memories of the city he loved in his youth. Writing in lucid, lyrical prose, Mr. Aciman does an exquisite job of conjuring up the daily rhythms and rituals of his family's life: their weekly trips to the movies, their daily jaunts to the beach, their internecine squabbles over everything from religion to money to the pronunciation of words. There are some wonderfully vivid scenes here, as strange and marvelous as something in Garcia Marquez, as comical and surprising as something in Chekhov.' Michiko Kakutani, New York Times Aciman's latest novel, Find Me, is now available for preorder in paperback.

We spend more time than we know trying to go back. We call it fantasising, we call it dreaming. . . but we're all crawling back, each in his or her own way. A group of college friends find themselves marooned at a luxurious hotel on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. While their boat is being repaired, they can't help but observe the daily routine of a fellow hotel guest - a mysterious, white-bearded stranger who sits on the veranda each night and smokes one cigarette, sometimes two. When the group decides to invite the elegant traveller to lunch with them, they cannot begin to imagine the miraculous abilities, strange wisdom, and a life-changing story he is about to impart to one of the friends in particular. . . Deeply atmospheric and sensual, The Gentleman From Peru weaves achingly poignant insight into a story of regret, fate and epic love.
