In this playful and daring interrogation of language, the globally acclaimed Yoko Tawada reveals the poetics, politics and potential of existing outside one's mother tongue. From Senegalese writers discarding colonial-enforced French to the increasing use of loan words in her native Japanese, Tawada deconstructs the ways in which the world shapes and is shaped by languages: their hidden systems of power, their sweeping histories and, ultimately, the people who claim, reject, adapt or romanticise them.

Alla scrittrice di necrologi Nadine Barbault non dispiace essere chiamata “Signora Morte”. Calza a pennello con il personaggio della Regina di Ghiaccio che ha coltivato per sopravvivere ai ritmi frenetici del Toronto Herald. Perciò quando Nadine scopre che la famosa (e solitaria) scrittrice Dot Voline è morta, non esita a pubblicare il necrologio ... per scoprire che Dot è molto viva.

It’s hard to believe there could be a more enjoyable novel than Scattered All Over the Earth—Yoko Tawada’s rollicking, touching, cheerfully dystopian novel about friendship and climate change—but surprising her readers is what Tawada does best: its sequel, Suggested in the Stars, delivers exploits even more poignant and shambolic.

Em 1972, o jovem radialista Elliot Mintz instalou em seu quarto uma luz vermelha. Quando ela piscava, em geral tarde da noite, era sinal de que John Lennon, Yoko Ono ou ambos queriam falar com ele. Raras vezes Mintz deixou de atender: em geral, ele pegava o telefone e dava início a longas conversas que entravam pela madrugada. Foi assim durante quase dez anos, até o assassinato de Lennon, em 1980. A proximidade com Yoko prosseguiu, mesmo marcada pela tragédia.

Der große Bestseller aus Japan über das Leben einer Frau in den Vierzigern, die noch einmal ganz von vorn anfängt. Und so ihr großes Glück im Kleinen findet. Als Akikos Mutter unerwartet stirbt, ist sie gezwungen, ihr Leben zu überdenken. Als leitende Lektorin in einem glamourösen Verlag kündigt sie ihren Job und zieht zurück in ihre Heimatstadt. Dort hat sie sich vorgenommen, die beliebte Kneipe ihrer verstorbenen Mutter in ein schönes Café umzugestalten, das einfache und köstliche Speisen anbietet: eine tägliche Karte mit Sandwiches, Suppen, Salaten und kleinen Obstschalen.

Akiko ha poco più di cinquant'anni quando, stanca del lavoro in editoria e di una vita che le sta sempre più stretta, decide di licenziarsi. Ora, però, vuole trasformare il locale in un posto diverso, che la rispecchi, ricreando il brodo di cui non ha mai dimenticato il profumo, il suono delle stoviglie, il calore di un tempo che sembrava perduto.
