Janko (Mehr als 3.200 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Good. June 1, 1943, Eastern Poland. Within just a few hours, the village of Sochy had ceased to exist. Buildings were burned. Residents shot. Among the survivors was nine-year-old Teresa Ferenc, who saw her family murdered by German soldiers, and would never forget what she witnessed the day she became an orphan. The horror of that event was etched into her very being and passed on to her daughter, author Anna Janko. A Little Annihilation bears witness to both the crime and its aftershocks ? the trauma visited on the next generation ? as revealed in a beautifully scripted and deeply personal mother-daughter dialogue. As she fathoms the full dimension of the tragedy, Janko reflects on memory and loss, the ethics of helplessness, and the lingering effects of war. 'Scenes from the war live on as trauma in the memory of the next generation. A Little Annihilation by Anna Janko is an extraordinarily personal and powerful account of how the worst wartime atrocities affect ordinary people and are seldom recorded in the official histories.' ? Olga Tokarczuk, winner of the Man Booker International Prize for Flights'This is a book about children in war and how we inherit trauma ? factual and unflinching, but touching and tender?As with Svetlana Alexievich's reportage, in this book war is shown not only as a tragic episode in history, but as a living memory, which even after many years puts us on our guard as a danger which could recur.' ?

Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Accolades for The Wire-Walker   Nautilus Gold Medal for Best Fiction of 2025 from a Large Press  the Indie Reader Discovery Award in Overall Fiction(2nd Place) the Juniper Prize from the University of Massachusetts Press finalist for the Donald L. Jordan Prize for Literary Excellence finalist for the Montaigne Medal Albuquerque Journal, the most widely read newspaper in New Mexico, chose The Wire-Walker as one of the best five books in 2025. Independent Publisher Book Awards highlights 2025's Outstanding Books in fiction and non-fiction; among the thousands of books entered, The Wire-Walker is among the top eleven. In the Balata Refugee Camp in Nablus, Palestine, sixteen-year-old Amal Tuqan finds her escape in tightrope walking. Living in an alley so narrow that "the walls hold their breath," she practices tirelessly on thin wires and slippery rebar. Her extraordinary talent leads her to Tel Aviv in the summer of 2019, where she joins The Flying Kids, a circus that brings together Israeli and Palestinian children. There, she forms a deep friendship with Tali Glazman, a Jewish Israeli juggler, and they discover they share a painful bond: both have lost their fathers to violence. As their friendship defies the deep-seated animosities that divide them, The Wire-Walker reveals more than just a tale of friendship; it is a raw and powerful commentary on the daily struggles faced by Amal and her community in the occupied West Bank. Set against the backdrop of 2019-2020, this poignant tale serves as a prequel to the struggles that have unfolded since, highlighting the enduring spirit of youth amidst conflict.…
