Patrick Modiano - Nobelpristagare i litteratur 2014 Patrick Modiano är född i Paris 1945 och de flesta av hans romaner utspelas där. Hans Paris är en minnenas stad där det förflutna och nuet ständigt tränger in i varandra och människor aldrig vet när sprickorna från kriget och ockupationen eller från 60-talets Algerietkonflikt kommer att öppna sig under dem. Det är en miljö där man när som helst kan möta gengångare från svunna liv och sammanhang och finna att tiden faktiskt är genomskinlig, men också att det ena mysteriet bara leder vidare till nästa. Författarens egna erfarenheter finns där som en underton. Ofta känns ett hot i luften. Något allvarligt har hänt, någon har försvunnit eller dyker senare upp med en annan identitet. Modiano leker gärna med polisromanens form och grepp, men gåtorna får inte alltid några tydliga svar, eller de svar läsaren kanske förväntar sig. Det handlar istället om att med exakta språkliga medel och i en enkel och tydlig prosa utveckla en särskild sorts uppmärksamhet, en resonans: berättelsen som vaken - men inte nödvändigtvis behaglig - dröm. Författarskapet hör sedan decennier till den franska litteraturens mest uppmärksammade. -Per Arne Tjäders bok är den första som presenterar Modiano och hans mentala geografi för svenska läsare. Den är skriven i föremålets anda, med nerv, lätthet och precision och med ett välutvecklat sinne för skuggornas lika överrumplande som ofrånkomliga djup.

On Saint Patrick's Day, an Irish American writer visiting Dublin takes a day trip around the city and muses on death, sex, lost love, Irish immigrant history, and his younger days as a student in Europe. Like James Joyce's Ulysses, Thomas McGonigle's award-winning novel St. Patrick's Day takes place on a single day, combining a stream-of-consciousness narrative with masterful old-fashioned storytelling, which samples the literary histories of both Ireland and America and the worlds they influence. St. Patrick's Day relies on an interior monologue to portray the narrator's often dark perceptions and fantasies; his memories of his family in Patchogue, New York, and of the women in his life; and his encounters throughout the day, as well as many years ago, with revelers, poets, African students, and working-class Dubliners. Thomas McGonigle's novel is a brilliant portrait of the uneasy alliance between the Irish and Irish Americans, the result of the centuries-old diaspora and immigration, which left unsettled the mysteries of origins and legacy. St. Patrick's Day is a rollicking pub-crawl through multi-sexual contemporary Dublin, a novel full of passion, humor, and insight, which makes the reader the author's accomplice, a witness to his heartfelt memorial to the fraught love affair between ancestors and generations. McGonigle tells the stories both countries need to hear. This particular St. Patrick's Day is an unforgettable one.
