Sidra con Rosie

release date: Sep 13, 2014
Sidra con Rosie
«Los últimos días de mi infancia fueron también los últimos días de la aldea. Yo pertenecía a aquella generación que vio, por casualidad, el final de una vida milenaria. [...] Yo, mi familia, mi generación, nacimos en un mundo de silencio; en un mundo de trabajo duro y necesaria paciencia, un mundo de espaldas dobladas hacia la tierra, cuidado manual de los cultivos, dependencia de la meteorología y de la cosecha; un mundo en que las aldeas eran naves en paisajes vacíos y las distancias entre ellas largas; un mundo de caminos marcados por cascos y ruedas de carretas, no hollados por la gasolina y el petróleo, apenas transitados por las personas y casi nunca por placer, por los que lo que más rápido se movía eran los caballos.»Laurie Lee revive en esta novela, una de las más queridas y leídas por sus compatriotas, su infancia en una aldea de la campiña inglesa. Pese a nacer en 1914, un mes antes del comienzo de la Primera Guerra Mundial, sus recuerdos son amables y llenos de cariño hacia un mundo que iba a desaparecer.«Un libro encantador, una exquisita despedida, no sólo de la infancia y de la adolescencia, sino también de una Inglaterra que ya ha desaparecido.»J.B. Priestley

An einem hellen Morgen ging ich fort

An einem hellen Morgen ging ich fort
Ein kleines Zelt, eine in eine Wolldecke eingewickelte Geige, Wäsche zum Wechseln und eine Dose Kekse: Das ist die ganze Ausrüstung Laurie Lees, als er an einem strahlenden Junimorgen sein Heimatdorf in Gloucestershire verlässt und sich auf den Weg nach London macht. "Neunzehn Jahre war ich alt, noch nicht trocken hinter den Ohren, aber ich verließ mich auf mein Glück." Mithilfe seines Geigenspiels schlägt er sich als liebenswürdiger, alle Eindrücke intensiv erlebender Vagabund zunächst bis London durch. Da Laurie weder ein anderes Land noch eine andere Sprache kennt, wählt er Spanien als nächstes Reiseziel, er betritt es in Vigo und durchwandert es bis nach Gibraltar, macht Bekanntschaften mit Bauern und Bettlern, den Armen und Ärmsten, musiziert für Brot und Wein und schläft in Olivenhainen und einfachsten Bauernhöfen. Es ist das Jahr 1935, und der kommende Bürgerkrieg wirft seine Schatten voraus.

Laurie Lee Selected Poems collects forty of Lee''s best poems, and provides the perfect introduction to this beloved authors lesser known works. The collection contains works such as Lee''s first poem, which appeared The Sunday Referee in 1934, poems first published in Cyril Connolly''s Horizon magazine in 1940, and selections from his first volume of poems, The Sun My Monument. Several poems written in the early 1940s reflect the atmosphere of the war, but also capture the beauty of the English countryside. Also included is the poem "Twelfth Night" from My Many-coated Man, which was set for unaccompanied mixed choir by American composer Samuel Barber in 1968. This year marks the hundredth anniversary of Lee''s birth, and consequently a resurgence of interest in Lee''s body of work.
