De spräckliga : en irländsk barndom

De spräckliga : en irländsk barndom

Hugo Hamilton

»Vi har inte bara ett språk och en historia. Vi sover på tyska och vi drömmer på iriska. Vi skrattar på iriska och vi gråter på tyska. Vi är tysta på tyska och vi talar på engelska. Vi är spräckliga.» I sin hyllade memoarbok De spräckliga skildrar Hugo Hamilton sina barndomsår i 1950-talets Dublin. Kluven mellan den obeveklige faderns iriska nationalism och den kärleksfulla moderns tyska förflutna förmedlar författaren med barnets blick en hel familjs längtan efter ett land och ett språk som den kan kalla sitt eget. Den irländske författaren Hugo Hamilton föddes 1953 i Dublin, där han idag är bosatt och verksam som författare. Sitt stora genombrott fick han med De spräckliga. Förlaget gav 2018 ut den fristående fortsättningen Sjömannen i garderoben. »De spräckliga är en fängslande och bitvis mycket rolig roman. Barndomsskildringar är nästan omöjliga att skriva utan att det blir antingen sött eller pompöst, men Hamilton hör till de få som lyckats. ... En närmast hisnande berättelse om hur en familj sitter fast i historiens skruvstäd.» Dagens Nyheter»Hamiltons berättelse är unik.» Norrbottens-Kuriren »Det är mörkt, tragiskt, varmt och roligt.» Kulturnytt, SR P1 »Fullständigt fri från sentimentalitet skriver Hamilton in sin familj i en historia fylld av språkets sprängkraft och individens envisa motstånd.» Helsingborgs Dagblad »Hugo Hamiltons stilsäkra roman är i stället en vemodig berättelse om språklig hemlöshet, utanförskap och familjekärlek, helt fri från minsta antydan till bitterhet.» Svenska Dagbladet

Following in the footsteps of Nobel Laureate Heinrich Bo¨ll’s 1956 classic Irish Journal, Hugo Hamilton revisits Boll’s evocations of 18 places across the island to take stock of the changes that have occurred over the last seven decades in Ireland. Part travelogue, part memoir, part social commentary, and part comic masterpiece, this latest offering from one of Ireland’s best-selling authors (his memoir The Speckled People, his five novels) is sure to sell in very large numbers. Whereas Heinrich Bo¨ll visited St. Patrick’s Cathedral, a bank manager’s home in Mayo, the streets and shops of Limerick and the lighthouse on Clare Island, Hugo Hamilton visits the deserted village on Achill Island, Croke Park in Dublin, a barbershop in Limerick, Turlough Park House in County Mayo, a police station in Prague, the church on Clare Island and a classroom in Bucharest.

'Truly a book for our time' PAUL LYNCH FROM THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE SPECKLED PEOPLE Fleeing his failed marriage in Berlin, Lukas Dorn revisits the West of Ireland, the place of his honeymoon two decades earlier. While his former wife is being cancelled at work and his daughter is arrested at a street protest, he tries to make sense of his broken life with a journal as his sole companion. His inherited memory of the Nazi Holocaust comes face to face with the present when he meets a refugee from a recent warzone. As Lukas communes with the elements in this wild coastal place, he is forced into a confrontation with the past that will carry him to the edge of existence. Conversation with the Sea speaks with heart-rending tenderness to the present moment, as it explores truth, illusion and the deadly silencing of war in a captivating tale of love in a time of displacement. 'Told with Hamilton's signature purity of tone, an epic story about how love and history intersect.' ANNE ENRIGHT 'I don't think I've ever read a book as wise, or as moving. I will treasure it forever.' DONAL RYAN 'Hypnotic, passionate, urgent ... Hamilton cuts a clean line to the truth of our mindless moment.' PAUL LYNCH

A deeply moving memoir about a young boy growing up in Dublin and his family's homesickness for a country they can call their own. The childhood world of Hugo Hamilton is a confused place: His father, a brutal Irish nationalist, demands his children speak Gaelic at home whilst his mother, a softly spoken German emigrant who escaped Nazi Germany at the beginning of the war, encourages them to speak German. All Hugo wants to do is speak English. English is, after all, what the other children in Dublin speak. English is what they use when they hunt down Hugo (or 'Eichmann' as they dub him) in the streets of Dublin, and English is what they use when they bring him to trial and execute him at a mock seaside court. Out of this fear and confusion Hugo tries to build a balanced view of the world, to turn the twisted logic of what he is told into truth. It is a journey that ends in liberation but not before this little boy has uncovered the dark and long-buried secrets that lie at the bottom of his parents' wardrobe. In one of the finest books to have emerged from Ireland since Patrick McCabe's THE BUTCHER BOY and Seamus Deane's READING IN THE DARK, acclaimed novelist Hugo Hamilton has finally written his own story.

The palm trees give the street a holiday atmosphere. There must be something in the soil they like. They have straight leaves that get a bit ragged, with split ends. At night you hear them rattling in the wind.

Director Martin Scorsese, the legendary storyteller, decided to make his first-ever 3D film based on the Brian Selznick illustrated novel which he read four years ago, immediately connected to, and then shared with his youngest daughter. In reading books to my daughter, we re-experience the work. So it's like rediscovering the work of art again, but through the eyes of a child. He decided to turn to a different film format, and screenwriter John Logan was chosen to turn Selznick's words and illustrations and transform them into a screenplay. He had to cut and change some elements of the book, but, as Selznick says in his introduction: John performed a kind of magic trick. He took my story and turned it inside out. He turned it into a story that feels like it was always meant to be a movie, and yet he also took the time to celebrate books [and] all happens in the context of a gigantic, glorious, heartfelt, cinematic masterpiece just makes it all the more meaningful. "Hugo" is the astonishing adventure of a wily and resourceful boy whose quest to unlock a secret left to him by his father will transform Hugo and all those around him, and reveal a safe and loving place he can call home. Scorsese has assembled an impressive acting ensemble comprised of rising new talent working alongside venerated stars of the stage and motion pictures, including Ben Kingsley, Sacha Baron Cohen, Asa Butterfield, Chloe Grace Moretz, Ray Winstone, Emily Mortimer, Helen McCrory, Christopher Lee, Richard Griffiths, Frances De La Tour, Michael Stuhlbarg, and with Jude Law.
