Skrivandets lycka och skrivkrampens plåga är återkommande inslag i Elizabeth Smarts författarskap. Hennes litterära utforskning har till egentligt ämne det egna jaget och dess förhållande till omvärlden, vilket gör Smart till en föregångare till Marguerite Duras och Friederike Mayröcker. Utöver den berömda romanen Vid Grand Central Station där satt jag och grät består Smarts verk huvudsakligen av dikter. Den nya boken Kärlek i krigstid, översatt av Jonas Ellerström och Elisabeth Mansén, rymmer ett fylligt urval av hennes bitska, exakta poesi, inramat av energiska dagboksanteckningar från ungdom och ålderdom.

As Seen on The Today Show In this powerful memoir of survival and healing, Elizabeth Smart empowers readers to navigate life’s detours, embrace resilience, and find healing and purpose after adversity. In Detours, Elizabeth Smart explores how trauma can derail one’s path in life and shares her struggles with captivity, reintegration, and resilience. Using the metaphor of life as a road, Smart introduces four key “Rest Stops” for navigating life’s detours—grieving lost paths, embracing change, seeking connections, and redefining destinations. Through themes of hope, community, and self-discovery, she inspires readers to find strength in their own journeys toward healing.

Modernt mästerverk i efterlängtad nyutgåva »Som Madame Bovary träffad av blixten.« Angela Carter Hon är en aspirerande författare från en välbärgad familj, han är poet och professor, bosatt i Japan. I början möts de två älskande nästan som i en dröm: hon har länge beundrat honom på avstånd, och när de till slut träffas dras de oemotståndligt till varandra. Överväldigad av ensamhet och sorg skrev Elizabeth Smart sin hjärtskärande prosalyriska skildring av den intensiva och destruktiva relation hon hade med poeten George Barker. Han lovade att lämna sin fru för henne men gjorde det aldrig. Ändå kunde de inte slita sig från varandra, och under det nästan arton år långa förhållandet fick de fyra barn tillsammans. Den självbiografiska Vid Grand Central Station där satt jag och grät gavs ut 1945, medan Smart och Barker fortfarande hade ett förhållande, och kom långsamt att nå kultstatus inom litterära kretsar i London innan den återutgavs 1966. Idag betraktas den som ett modernt mästerverk. I översättning av Ingegärd Martinell. ELIZABETH SMART [1913–1986], född i Ottawa, var en kanadensisk författare och poet. Mest känd är hon för det självbiografiska verket Vid Grand Central Station där satt jag och grät.

The backstory of finding Elizabeth Smart and how growing up in the Mormon culture pushed the author to develop the exact kind of intuition that was needed to help manage Elizabeth’s kidnapping and rescue while the world watched. Chris Thomas is not yet thirty years old when he finds himself managing the immense pressure, eccentric personalities, and extenuating circumstances of an international story, where one small misstep could adversely impact the search for a missing teenager and the reputation of her family. Now, twenty years later, Thomas takes readers behind the scenes, providing new details, perspectives, and commentary on finding Elizabeth Smart. In the process of reflecting on Elizabeth’s search and rescue, Thomas discovers how growing up in the culture of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly known as Mormon) helped push him to develop the exact kind of intuition needed to manage Elizabeth’s kidnapping and rescue, and to do so while the world watched. Unexpected juxtaposes crucial events from the Smart case with Thomas’s experience growing up in the Latter-day Saint culture, including coming to understand the secret of a broken war hero before it was too late.

Elizabeth Smart’s passionate fictional account of her intense love-affair with the poet George Barker, described by Angela Carter as ‘Like Madame Bovary blasted by lightening … A masterpiece’. One day, while browsing in a London bookshop, Elizabeth Smart chanced upon a slim volume of poetry by George Barker – and fell passionately in love with him through the printed word. Eventually they communicated directly and, as a result of Barker’s impecunious circumstances, Elizabeth Smart flew both him and his wife from Japan, where he was teaching, to join her in the United States. Thus began one of the most extraordinary, intense and ultimately tragic love affairs of our time. They never married but Elizabeth bore George Barker four children and their relationship provided the impassioned inspiration for one of the most moving and immediate chronicles of a love affair ever written – By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept. Originally published in 1945, this remarkable book is now widely identified as a classic work of poetic prose which, more than six decades later, has retained all of its searing poignancy, beauty and power of impact.

In her fearless memoir, My Story, Elizabeth Smart related, for the first time, the horrific experiences she went through as a fourteen-year-old girl, when she was abducted from her home and held captive for nine months. Since then, she’s travelled the world as the president of the Elizabeth Smart Foundation, sharing her story in the hopes of helping others along the way. Over and over, Elizabeth hears the same question from women who’ve gone through horrible experiences: How do you find the hope to go on? In this powerful book, she seeks out others who have overcome adversity to help find the answers. Through conversations with victims of violence, disease, war, and the loss of loved ones, Elizabeth explores the meaning and power of hope to heal our lives. Through discussions with well-known figures like Anne Romney and Diane Von Furstenburg, spiritual leaders like Archbishop John C. Wester and Elder Richard Hinckley, and her own parents, Ed and Lois Smart, Elizabeth gives readers the tools they need to take control and embrace life.

First published in 1978, and widely considered to be the sequel to her masterpiece 'By Grand Central Station I Sat Down and Wept', this remarkable book further established Smart's reputation as a brave and inspirational writer.
