" Dès son premier roman, Putain (Seuil, 2001), Nelly Arcan na cessé de brasser dans un lyrisme flamboyant quelques thèmes…
obsessionnels, inséparables de sa vie : la dictature de limage, limpossibilité dun rapport innocent à soi-même, le culte vertigineux de la jeunesse, et son envers : la pulsion de mort, qui anime souterrainement les sociétés modernes. Passé le temps du scandale et celui de lémotion, voici donc les derniers échos dune œuvre aussi éblouissante que brève. Burqa de chair : titre terrible, qui agit avec la force dun boomerang en regard de certains débats actuels. On trouvera assemblés ici trois inédits : La robe , Lenfant dans le miroir et La honte . Les deux premiers sont écrits à la première personne, dans ce phrasé tourbillonnant, suffocant, qui était sa marque singulière, celle dun écrivain en danger . Dans le troisième texte, elle décortique avec une inépuisable férocité son expérience humiliante sur un plateau de télévision. " -- 4e de couvThe City and the House: A Novel

A sophisticated new package for Natalia Ginzburg's classic fiction This powerful novel is set against the background of Italy from…
1939 to 1944, from the anxious months before the country entered the war, through the war years, to the Allied victory with its trailing wake of anxiety, disappointment, and grief.The city is Rome, the hub of Italian life and culture. The house is Le Margherite, a home where the sprawling cast of The City and the House is welcome. At the center of this lush epistolary novel is Lucrezia, mother of five and lover of many. Among her lovers-and perhaps the father of one of her children-is Giuseppe. After the sale of Le Margherite, the characters wander aimlessly as if in search of a lost paradise.What was once rooted, local, and specific has become general and common, a matter of strangers and of pointless arrivals and departures. And at the edge of the novel are people no longer able to form any sustained or sustaining relationships. Here, once again, Ginzburg pulls us through a thrilling and true exploration of the disintegration of family in modern society. She handles a host of characters with a deft touch and her typical impressionist hand, and offers a story full of humanity, passion, and keen perception.The Manzoni Family: A Novel

Winner of the Bagutta Prize, The Manzoni Family set in ducal Italy and post-revolutionary France, captures the story of Alessandro…
Manzoni—celebrated Milanese nobleman, man of letters, and author of the masterpiece of nineteenth-century Italian literature, I promessi sposi (The Betrothed)—and the women of his life. The dynastic tale begins with the matriarchal figure of Giulia, the mother whom the young Alessandro Manzoni found in Paris after she had abandoned him as an infant. Following her, there is Enrichetta, the woman he and his mother chose to be his wife, and the many children she had by him until her death; literary friends from the beau monde in Italy and Paris; and Alessandro's second wife, Teresa, and her children. Against the background of Napoleonic occupation, the reestablishment of Austrian hegemony, and the stirrings of the revolutionary urge for unification and independence, Ginzburg gracefully weaves the story of the Manzoni dynasty, a family that seems to grow autonomously around the life of the writer, effortlessly incorporating the epic tumult and emotion of the age. Ginzburg explores this fascinating true story and celebrated author with the elegance that has assured her rightful place among history’s acclaimed literary titans.Crossing Brooklyn Ferry: A Novel
