Hanya Yanagihara

From the author of the classic A LITTLE LIFE, a bold, brilliant novel spanning three centuries and three different versions of the American experiment, about lovers, family, loss and the elusive promise of utopia. In an alternate version of 1893 America, New York is part of the Free States, where people may live and love whomever they please (or so it seems). The fragile young scion of a distinguished family resists betrothal to a worthy suitor, drawn to a charming music teacher of no means. In a 1993 Manhattan besieged by the AIDS epidemic, a young Hawaiian man lives with his much older, wealthier partner, hiding his troubled childhood and the fate of his father. And in 2093, in a world riven by plagues and governed by totalitarian rule, a powerful scientist's damaged granddaughter tries to navigate life without him-and solve the mystery of her husband's disappearances. These three sections are joined in an enthralling and ingenious symphony, as recurring notes and themes deepen and enrich one another: A townhouse in Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village; illness, and treatments that come at a terrible cost; wealth and squalor; the weak and the strong; race; the definition of family, and of nationhood; the dangerous righteousness of the powerful, and of revolutionaries; the longing to find a place in an earthly paradise, and the gradual realization that it can't exist. What unites not just the characters, but these Americas, are their reckonings with the qualities that make us human: Fear. Love. Shame. Need. Loneliness. TO PARADISE is a fin de siecle novel of marvelous literary effect, but above all it is a work of emotional genius. The great power of this remarkable novel is driven by Yanagihara's understanding of the aching desire to protect those we love - partners, lovers, children, friends, family and even our fellow citizens - and the pain that ensues when we cannot.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A stunning "portrait of the enduring grace of friendship" (NPR) about the families we are born into, and those that we make for ourselves. A masterful depiction of love in the twenty-first century. NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST - MAN BOOKER PRIZE FINALIST - WINNER OF THE KIRKUS PRIZE A Little Life follows four college classmates--broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition--as they move to New York in search of fame and fortune. While their relationships, which are tinged by addiction, success, and pride, deepen over the decades, the men are held together by their devotion to the brilliant, enigmatic Jude, a man scarred by an unspeakable childhood trauma. A hymn to brotherly bonds and a masterful depiction of love in the twenty-first century, Hanya Yanagihara's stunning novel is about the families we are born into, and those that we make for ourselves.

En roman för den som vill bli uppslukad av den stora berättelsen – djupt gripande, skoningslös och oförglömlig. Berättelsen om de fyra vännerna JB, Malcolm, Willem och Jude och deras liv i New York spänner över flera decennier och växlar mellan mörker och ljus. Genom åren prövas deras vänskap, men det som håller dem samman är alltid Jude – Jude St Francis, som förblir en gåta även för dem som står honom närmast. Jude är framgångsrik advokat med ett traumatiskt förflutet som präglar hela hans liv på ett oåterkalleligt sätt. Som kontrast till hans mörka uppväxt står vänskapen till framför allt skådespelaren Willem, vars trofasthet och kärlek håller honom vid liv. Genom åren kommer Jude att slitas mellan självföraktet som styr hans tillvaro och kärleken han inte kan tillåta sig.

Et lille liv er en af den slags romaner, der fortæller en menneskehistorie, man aldrig glemmer. Da fire studiekammerater flytter til New York for at finde vej ind i voksenlivet uden en klink på lommen, drives de frem af deres venskab og ambitioner. Willem drømmer om scenen, den hårdhudede, skarpe JB om et liv med billedkunst, Malcolm frustreres i sine forsøg på at skabe en karriere i et stort arkitektfirma, og den talentfulde, fjerne Jude, som lige har fået sin advokatbestalling, er gruppens centrum. Årene går, og deres forhold farves af både succes og stolthed, men også af den grelleste form for misbrug og overgreb. Langsomt samler fortællingen sig om Jude, der på en gang er en af New Yorks mest succesrige advokater og et nedbrudt menneske. Han hjemsøges af den barndom, han har brugt hele sit liv på at flygte fra, og hvis traumer, han frygter, vil definere ham for altid. Med formfuldendt, nærmest overdådig prosa har Hanya Yanagihara skabt etmesterligt portræt af hjertesorg og et mørkt indblik i overgrebets væsen.

Fortellingen om de fire vennene JB, Malcolm, Willem og Jude, og livet deres i New York - som spenner over flere tiår - veksler mellom lys og mørke. Gjennom årene settes vennskapet på prøve. Det som holder det sammen er alltid Jude – Jude St Francis, som forblir en gåte, selv for dem som står ham nærmest. Jude er framgangsrik advokat, med en traumatisk barndom som preger livet hans på en altoverskyggende måte. I kontrast til den mørke oppveksten står vennskapet til, framfor alt, skuespilleren Willem, og det er Willems trofasthet og kjærlighet som holder Jude i live når dagene blir ulevelige. Gjennom årene kommer Jude til å bli dratt mellom selvforakten, som styrer tilværelsen hans, og kjærligheten, som han ikke kan tillate seg.

LONGLISTED FOR THE DYLAN THOMAS PRIZE LONGLISTED FOR THE IMPAC DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD, 2014 SHORTLISTED FOR THE KITSCHIES PRIZE, 2014 (GOLD TENTACLE) The brooding, bold and brilliant first novel from the Man Booker and Bailey's Prize-shortlisted author of A Little Life. In 1950, a young doctor called Norton Perina signs on with the anthropologist Paul Tallent for an expedition to the remote Micronesian island of Ivu'ivu in search of a rumoured lost tribe. They succeed, finding not only that tribe but also a group of forest dwellers they dub 'The Dreamers', who turn out to be fantastically long-lived but progressively more senile. Perina suspects the source of their longevity is a hard-to-find turtle; unable to resist the possibility of eternal life, he kills one and smuggles some meat back to the States. He scientifically proves his thesis, earning worldwide fame and the Nobel Prize, but he soon discovers that its miraculous property comes at a terrible price...

A thrilling anthropological adventure story with a profound and tragic vision of what happens when cultures collide--from the bestselling author of National Book Award-nominated modern classic, A Little Life "Provokes discussions about science, morality and our obsession with youth." --Chicago Tribune It is 1950 when Norton Perina, a young doctor, embarks on an expedition to a remote Micronesian island in search of a rumored lost tribe. There he encounters a strange group of forest dwellers who appear to have attained a form of immortality that preserves the body but not the mind. Perina uncovers their secret and returns with it to America, where he soon finds great success. But his discovery has come at a terrible cost, not only for the islanders, but for Perina himself. Look for Hanya Yanagihara's bestselling new novel, To Paradise, available now.

A novel of extraordinary intelligence and heart, a masterful depiction of heartbreak, and a dark and haunting examination of the tyranny of experience and memory.

Folket i træerne er Hanya Yanagiharas første roman, som hun skrev inden sin internationale kæmpesucces Et lille liv. Året er 1950, og en ung læge ved navn Norton Perina er ved at forberede sig til en ekspedition til en fjern ø i Mikronesien, Ivu’iyu, på jagt efter en sagnomspunden, forsvundet stamme. Sammen med antropologen Paul Tallent drager han af sted og lykkes med sin mission; han finder ikke bare stammen, men også en anden gruppe mennesker som bor i skoven og virker til at opnå meget høje levealdre. Perina mistænker at kilden til hvad der næsten ligner evigt liv er kødet fra en bestemt skildpaddeart, og han er ude af stand til at modstå den fristelse det er at slå en ihjel og smugle en smule af kødet med tilbage til USA. Han er i stand til videnskabeligt at bevise sin tese, hvilket gør ham berømt verden over, men han opdager snart at prisen for opdagelsen er høj og frygtelig. Folket i træerne er baseret på den virkelige historie om nobelpristager Dr. Daniel Carleton Gajdusek og er en tindrende mørk, modig fortælling om magt, magtmisbrug og menneskeligt begær i alle dets former.

Living Histories: Queer Views and Old Masters is an exciting volume featuring the work of four New York based artists, each presenting a single new work in conversation with celebrated paintings in The Frick Collection, with particular emphasis on issues of gender and queer identity typically excluded from narratives of early modern European art. The idea of commissioning four works to display at Frick Madison emerged when four masterpieces by Vermeer, Holbein, and Rembrandt were loaned to exhibitions. Works by Jenna Gribbon, Doron Langberg, Toyin Ojih Odutola and Salman Toor were commissioned to replace them, alongside other works by these artists. This book is the result of the four New York artists' responses to the Frick's collection, and the conversations their work engendered. Written contributions are provided by Jonathan Anderson, Jessica Bell Brown, Christopher Lew, Jason Reynolds, Legacy Russell, and Russell Tovey. SELLING POINTS: . Queer art for the Old Masters . Ties in with a series of ongoing installations of works by contemporary LGBTQ+ artists produced in response to selected works at the Frick . Contributions by artists, writers and curators bring a diverse and rich perspective . Featured artists Jenna Gribbon, Doron Langberg, Toyin Ojih Odutola, and Salman Toor allow us to see long-familiar works in the Frick's collection in new ways . Doron Langberg's Lover is paired with Hans Holbein's Sir Thomas More;; Jenna Gribbon's What Am I Doing Here?
