2006br. "Io sono in tutti i miei libri, in un modo o nell'altro." Si può raccontare la vita di un grande scrittore come Isaac Bashevis Singer che detestava le biografie? Florence Noiville ha caparbiamente deciso di raccogliere la sfida e si è messa in viaggio in cerca delle tracce nascoste della sua vita, dall'infanzia nel villaggio polacco di Radzymin alla leggendaria via Krochmalna del ghetto di Varsavia, fino all'appartato rifugio di New York. Né ebreo, né americano, né polacco, Singer sapeva che sarebbe sempre stato in esilio ovunque. Non era né di qui né di là. Né di oggi né di ieri... Era, secondo la sua formula, "uno straniero in genere". Sempre un po' in disparte, orgoglioso e vulnerabile al tempo stesso, scettico ma ossessionato dal suo rapporto con il divino. Capace di gesti crudeli, come quello di lasciarsi alle spalle la moglie e il figlio in Polonia, prima di imbarcarsi per l'America e per un futuro che sarà attraversato dal senso di colpa per quell'abbandono. Bugiardo e infedele per natura, ma sempre difeso dalle sue donne, esercitava un singolare magnetismo sia nella vita sia nei libri, tutti scritti in quella che lui definiva la "lingua di nessuno", l'yiddish.

Crease down front jacket flap otherwise an excellent copy. Binding tight and square pages clean bright and unmarked. 1985 Hard Cover. x 276 pp. When the universe was born some 15 billion years ago the "big bang" produced vast clouds of hydrogen and helium. Where did everything else come from Supernovas the huge unstable suns whose immense convulsions and titanic explosions are the largest and most shattering events in the universe. Untold trillions of these giant crucibles in space erupting down the long reaches of time are now known to have forged all the heavier elements that in turn formed the metals the rocks and--at least once--life itself. Did earlier civilizations watch in wonder at the flash of distant supernovas What about the 1987 "next-door" supernova Have supernovas ever threatened life on Earth Will they in years to come Offering a compelling view of supernovas and the new understanding about the evolution of the universe Isaac Asimov's The Exploding Suns is one of the most breathtaking science books ever to address these and many other questions.
