Andri Snaer Magnason

Odnazhdy v mire proizoshlo nechto neobjasnimoe: ljudi poprjatalis v zagadochnye chjornye jaschiki i otkazalis vykhodit iz nikh do tekh por, poka ne nastanut luchshie vremena.Goroda zarosli lesom, v byvshikh supermarketakh prinjalis ryskat dikie zveri. Ostalis lish gorstka detej i tainstvennaja staraja zhenschina, kotorye pytajutsja razgadat zagadku. Chto stalo s mirom?! Poisk otveta zastavljaet ikh obratitsja k sobytijam daljokogo proshlogo, bolshe pokhozhim na legendu ili chudesnuju skazku. Chto zhe takoe vremja?Ego techenie gubitelno dlja ljudej i gorodov - ili, naprotiv, neobkhodimo, kak kislorod? Esli volshebnyj sposob spastis ot neumolimogo vremeni vdrug otyschetsja - chem on obernjotsja dlja otdelnogo cheloveka, dlja strany, dlja vsego mira? Chtoby otvetit na vse eti voprosy - na pervyj vzgljad detskie, no, po suti, chrezvychajno glubokie i filosofskie, - neobkhodimo vyslushat do kontsa istoriju printsessy skazochnoj strany Pangeja i proniknut v ejo tajnu...Dlja detej srednego shkolnogo vozrasta.Perevodchik: Markelova Olga

Iceland is a land of stories; from the epic sagas of its mythic past, to its claim today of being home to more writers, more published books and more avid readers, per head, than anywhere in the world. As its capital (and indeed only city), Reykjavik has long been an inspiration for these stories. But, as this collection demonstrates, this fishing-village-turned-metropolis at the farthest fringe of Europe has been both revered and reviled by Icelanders over the years. The tension between the city and the surrounding countryside, its rural past and urban present, weaves its way through The Book of Reykjavik, forming an outline of a fragmented city marked by both contradiction and creativity. Includes a foreword written by award-winning Icelandic author Sjon. Translated from the Icelandic by Victoria Cribb, Philip Roughton, Lytton Smith, Meg Matich and Larissa Kyzer. Published with the support of the Icelandic Literature Center.

Brimir and Hulda are best friends who live on a small island on a beautiful blue planet where there are only children and no adults. Their planet is wild and at times dangerous, but everything is free, everyone is their friend, and each day is more exciting than the last. One day a rocket ship piloted by a strange-looking adult named Gleesome Goodday crashes on the beach. His business card claims he is a "Dream.ComeTrueMaker and joybringer," and he promises to make life a hundred times more fun with sun-activated flying powder and magic-coated skin so that no one ever has to bathe again. Goodday even nails the sun in the sky and creates a giant wolf to chase away the clouds so it can be playtime all the time. In exchange for these wonderful things, Goodday asks only for a little bit of the children's youth--but what is youth compared to a lot more fun? The children are so enamored with their new games that they forget all the simple activities they used to love. During Goodday's great flying competition, Hulda and Brimir fly too high to the sun and soar to the other side of planet, where they discover it is dark all the time and the children are sickly and pale. Hulda and Brimir know that without their help, the pale children will die, but first they need to get back to their island and convince their friends that Gleesome Goodday is not all that he seems. A fantastical adventure, beautifully told, unfolds in a deceptively simple tale. The Story of the Blue Planet will delight and challenge readers of all ages.

Mahtava fantasiaseikailu. Lasten asuttamalle planeetalle saapuu avaruuskauppias, joka tekee elämän mukavaksi ja opettaa lapset lentämään. Kaikella on kuitenkin hintansa.

Järgmise saja aasta jooksul muutub kogu maakeral leiduva vee olemus täielikult. Liustikud sulavad, merepinna tase tõuseb ja merevee happesus muutub rohkem kui viimase 50 miljoni aasta jooksul. Need muutused puudutavad elu kogu Maal: kõiki elusolendeid ja tegevusi, kõike, mida tunneme ja kõiki, keda armastame. Need muutused on keerulisemad kui enamik sellest, millega inimmõte on harjunud tegelema, suuremad kui kõik varasemad kogemused, suuremad kui inimkeel. Millised sõnad suudaks edasi anda midagi nii hiiglaslikku? Mis juhtub Maaga täna sündinud lapse eluajal?Islandi kirjanik Andri Snaer Magnason teeb katse tulevikku selgust tuua. Ta võtab vabaduse olla nii isiklik kui ka teaduslik, põimides ühte Põhjala ja India muistseid müüte, omaenda eellaste lugusid ning vestlusi Tema Pühaduse dalai-laamaga, püüdes kaardistada kliimamuutustega kaasnevaid muresid ja jõuda lähemale nende lahendustele. See poeetiline jutustus, olemuselt kui reekviem liustikele, on ühelt poolt reisikiri, teisalt haarav mõtisklus maailma ajaloo ainetel. Ennekõike paneb autor lugejatele südamele üht: me ei tohiks elada tulevaste põlvede arvelt.Raamatut illustreerivad mustvalged fotod, mis viivad lugeja ajarännule üle kogu maailma, Islandi liustikest kuni J.R.R. Tolkieni kodu ja dalai-laama vastuvõturuumini.Andri Snaer Magnason (1973) on üks Islandi tuntumaid kirjanikke, kes on pälvinud Islandi kirjandusauhinna nii ilukirjanduse, lastekirjanduse kui ka aimekirjanduse vallas. Peale selle on Magnason kirjutanud luulet, näidendeid, novelle ja esseesid.

A Guardian 'Top 10 Nature Memoirs' pick 'Poetic and heartful' Guardian Icelandic author and activist Andri Snær Magnason's 'Letter to the Future', an extraordinary and moving eulogy for the lost Okjökull glacier, made global news and was shared by millions. Now he attempts to come to terms with the issues we all face in his new book On Time and Water. Magnason writes of the melting glaciers, the rising seas and acidity changes that haven't been seen for 50 million years. These are changes that will affect all life on earth. Taking a path to climate science through ancient myths about sacred cows, stories of ancestors and relatives and interviews with the Dalai Lama, Magnason allows himself to be both personal and scientific. The result is an absorbing mixture of travel, history, science and philosophy.

Nominerad till Nordiska rådets litteraturpris 2021!Om tiden och vattnet är en storartad skildring av det isländska samhället, det globala hoppet som präglar klimatkampen och arbetet som behöver göras för att säkra människans framtid.Inom de kommande hundra åren kommer allt vatten på jorden att genomgå en fundamental förändring. Glaciärer, som för bara två generationer sedan var lika beständiga som bergen under dem, kommer att smälta och havsnivån höjas. Den här förändringen kommer att påverka allt liv på jorden. Men trots att vi står inför en så tydlig global klimatkris, är det svårt för människor att ta till sig forskarnas rapporter och budskap. Det är inte genom analyser vi känner och förstår utan genom berättelser, i en kontext vi kan relatera till.Genom personliga anekdoter, mytologi och klimatforskning försöker Magnason få läsaren att förstå hur allt hänger ihop, vilken forskning som redan finns och hur vi måste ställa om vårt sätt att tänka.Andri Snae;r Magnason är författare, artist och aktivist och en av Islands mest framträdande kulturikoner. Genom att på ett tydligt och tillgängligt sätt binda ihop nutid med dåtid får Magnason oss att inse att varken det förflutna eller framtiden är särskilt långt bort.

When a new contraption called TimeBox, which allows people to hibernate through the current terrible economic situation, comes onto the market, Sigrun's family - along with everyone else - decides to sleep through the bad times. But something goes wrong, and Sigrun wakes up too soon. The city is in ruins, unruly forests and wild animals have taken over the streets, and all the grown-ups refuse to wake up. The only signs of civilization are a band of kids like Sigrun, led by Grace - a grandmotherly and mystical researcher. The world, according to Grace, is under an ancient curse. Now it's up to them to break the curse, save their families, and mend the world before it's too late.

2013 Philip K. Dick Award Special Citation of Excellence "Orwell, Vonnegut, and Douglas Adams are felt on every page, though Magnason is never derivative. His satire and insightful social commentary sweeten the pot and the sheer wackiness of Magnason's oversized imagination is invigorating."--Publishers Weekly, starred review LoveStar, the enigmatic and obsessively driven founder of the LoveStar corporation, has unlocked the key to transmitting data via birdwaves, thus freeing mankind from wires and devices, and allowing consumerism, technology, and science to run rampant over all aspects of daily life. Cordless modern men and women are paid to howl advertisements at unsuspecting passers-by, REGRET machines eliminate doubt over roads not taken, soul mates are identified and brought together (while existing, unscientifically validated relationships are driven remorselessly asunder), and rocketing the dead into the sky becomes both a status symbol and a beautiful, cathartic show for those left behind. Indridi and Sigrid, two blissfully happy young lovers, have their perfect worlds threatened (along with Indridi's sanity) when they are "calculated apart" and are forced to go to extreme lengths to prove their love. Their journey ultimately puts them on a collision course with LoveStar, who is on his own mission to find what might become the last idea in the world. Steeped in influences ranging from Italo Calvino, Jorge Luis Borges, and Kurt Vonnegut to George Orwell, Douglas Adams, and Monty Python, Andri Sn r Magnason has created a surreal yet uncomfortably familiar world, where the honey embrace of love does its utmost to survive amid relentless and overpowering controls.
