International forfatterscene: A. S. Byatt A. S. Byatt, Børnenes bog.Mød den britiske stjerneforfatter Antonia Susan Byatt (f. 1936), der har status som en af Storbritanniens mest markante nulevende forfattere. Byatt fik sit internationale gennembrud med romanen Besættelse: en romance, der udkom på dansk i 1992, og som hun vandt Bookerprisen for. Byatts forfatterskab er omfattende og bevæger sig fra episk-historiske beretninger fra victoriansk kultur til kritisk analyse af efterkrigstidens britiske samfund og skarpe psykologiske samtidsskildringer. I hendes bøger kombineres på underfundig vis filosofi, litteraturhistorie og fantasi, og Byatt udviser gerne en postmoderne tilgang til betingelser for erfaring og til litterær tradition og leger med den realistiske fortællemåde. Blandt Byatts inspirationskilder er T.S. Eliot, Henry James, George Eliot og Robert Browning. A.S. Byatt er født i 1936 i England og forlod i 1983 karrieren som universitetslektor i litteratur for at blive fuldtidsforfatter. Byatt har modtaget mange litterære priser og er derudover æresdoktor ved flere universiteter. Udover en lang række romaner, hvoraf adskillige er oversat til dansk, har Byatt også skrevet litterære essays. Byatts Børnenes bog udkommer nu på dansk. Denne 670 sider lange roman fik de varmeste anmeldelser, da den udkom i Storbritannien (2009) og siden blev shortlistet til Bookerprisen. (2810michael)… (altro)

The Value of Literature: What Are Words Worth? Antonia ByattIn the first of a two-part series, English PEN examines how literature is funded and writers are remunerated in today’s economy. The creative economy is now seen as a key component of the UK’s economic recovery. Can the arts offer an alternative value system by which to measure wealth and how do we measure the contribution of the literature sector? (deliriumslibrarian)… (altro)
The Children's Book: A.S. Byatt. Chaired by Virginia Nicholson. A S Byatt; Virginia Nicholson , Among the Bohemians: Experiments in Living 1900-1939.Tickets £10 The Children's Book, A.S. Byatt's new novel, is a panoramic saga of family secrets, set against the backdrop of a Bohemian, artistic, late Victorian and Edwardian world. It poses questions about war and peace, art and society and whether famous writers of children's books are doomed to damage their offspring. The action moves from the Kent marshes, to Paris, Munich and the trenches of the Somme, while the vivid characters explore Fabianism, anarchy, free love, class differences and women's suffrage. Another tour de force from the internationally acclaimed author of Possession. Virginia Nicholson's Among the Bohemians was inspired by her own background. (DeadGoodBooks)… (altro)
