Javier del Pino conversa con la escritora estadounidense Siri Hustvedt sobre 'Historias de fantasmas', su última novela, donde reflexiona sobre la viudedad tras cuatro décadas compartiendo vida con el escritor Paul Auster. Un libro que pese no habla sobre el duelo, sino sobre la conjunción sostenida por el amor entre dos personas.

Por Yaiza SantosHay que discriminar, decretó, ante el riesgo de que la marea de barro todo lo ahogue. Lo más grave que ha pasado es la orden dada por el presidente –presuntamente– o al menos por el Partido Socialista contra el Estado. Todo estaba anunciado, no obstante, en aquella primera carta a la ciudadanía, y aun antes, en la aprobación de la amnistía a cambio de permanecer en el poder. Se sabe que el inmunodeficiente moral –y físico– es susceptible de ser atacado por toda clase de virus. El cinismo con el que salió Sánchez a negar la convocatoria de elecciones solo puede tomarse, dada su condición de juguete roto, como un gesto puramente cómico.Así las cosas, el Partido Popular tiene una oportunidad inmejorable para morder –como en su momento hizo Ciudadanos en Cataluña, donde llegó a ser la primera fuerza política, quiso dejar grabado– la suficiente porción de votantes del PSOE. En su lugar, sin embargo, Feijóo parece estar esperando el cadáver pasar. Es lamentable.Celebró el cuarto de siglo del restaurante La Buena Vida, ponderó lo dicho por Siri Husvedt sobre la conjunción copulativa con Paul Auster y comentó un nuevo y candente paper: viejos que se sienten jóvenes y lo que de ellos se piensa.Y fue así que Espada yiró.Bibliografía:- Ketty Garat, Todos los hombres de Sánchez.- Luis Alemany, "Siri Hustvedt, sobre Paul Auster: 'Sucedieron cosas horribles en nuestra vida, pero lo nuestro nunca fue horrible.

When Siri Hustvedt lost her husband, Paul Auster, to cancer, her immediate instinct was to write. This, in fact, has always been her instinct and the resulting book, Ghost Stories, is an elegant patchwork of memories, letters and more that serve as a moving tribute to their relationship. We spoke with her about their first meeting, nearly losing him immediately, their years of partnership and the impact of his loss, in a generous and ultimately uplifting conversation.

Elle-même écrivaine et essayiste, elle se confie dans “Ghost Stories” (éditions Gallimard) sur la relation si particulière qu'elle entretenait avec l'être aimé, décédé en avril 2024 d'un cancer des poumons. Siri Hustvedt a commencé l'écriture de ce livre “environ deux semaines” après la disparition de Paul Auster. Les mots apparaissaient comme une nécessité pour traverser la douleur et la perte : “C'était une tentative de renaissance.” Donald Trump puis Vladimir Poutine à Pékin : l'Empire du milieu est-il redevenu le centre du monde ? Après Donald Trump du 13 au 15 mai, c'est au tour de Vladimir Poutine de fouler le tapis rouge chinois cette semaine. La visite diplomatique américaine a été très symbolique pour le président américain qui était le premier à se rendre en Chine depuis neuf ans. Du côté de Vladimir Poutine, la tonalité est différente, le président russe effectuant sa 25ème visite à son homologue chinois. Ce dernier a mis en avant leur “coordination stratégique avec une persévérance inébranlable”.

What does it mean to mourn a shared life? In this episode, essayist and novelist Siri Hustvedt speaks to book critic Mythili Rao about Ghost Stories. Her most personal work yet, it is a searing and intimate meditation on grief, memory and enduring love, written in the aftermath of the death of her husband, writer, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster. Weaving together journal entries, letters, emails and fragments of Auster's final writing, Hustvedt reflects on four decades of love, intellectual companionship and family life in New York. Together they discuss grief not as a single event but as an altered experience of time, memory and presence. Hustvedt discusses the role of writing in mourning, the value of nurturing an inner life in an age of constant distraction, and the intersection of personal grief and political dread in contemporary America. Siri Hustvedt is a novelist, essayist and poet. Her books include What I Loved, The Blazing World and Memories of the Future. Her latest book is Ghost Stories. Mythili Rao is a journalist, book critic and podcaster. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.

Berrogeita hiru urtez elkarrekin egon ondoren, duela bi urte hil zen. Ez dut erabiltzen “zendu” hitza, Sirik esan baitzuen “hil” erabili behar dela, ordezko hitzik gabe. Ingelesez pass away esaten da. Eta hark galdetzen zuen: “Pass away? Zer da hori? Nora pasatzen da pertsona?”. Pertsona hil egiten da.

Acclaimed author Siri Hustvedt on Ghost Stories, her memoir of her marriage to novelist, poet and filmmaker Paul Auster and her grief following his death in 2024. Following last night's live report on the controversies surrounding this year's Venice Biennale, we are joined by one of the curators of the Ukrainian Pavillion, to hear how a concrete sculpture of a deer rescued from the frontline of the conflict in Ukraine forms the centrepiece of their exhibit.

No, reading novels is not a solution to our political miseries. For that organization, active resistance, and harder rhetoric is required. But we need stories.Author Siri Hustvedt said these words during a lecture at the House of Literature in 2017, in Donald Trump's first term as president.Hustvedt is one of those writers who turns to literature as well as organized resistance faced with a harsh political reality. Together with her late husband, the author Paul Auster, she founded Writers Against Trump (today Writers For Democratic Action), a coalition that organizes town hall meetings, protests and political theatre. Hustvedt writes about the beginning of the movement in her latest book, Ghost Stories: A Memoir.Faced with Trump's curbing of rights, and ICE's conduct in a number of American cities, Hustvedt has been a staunch critic. Raised in Minnesota by Norwegian parents, she soon learned of her mother's resistance to the Nazi occupation of Norway during the second world war. In a much-shared Facebook post, Hustvedt points to a parallel between the Norwegians' resistance and today's protests in the US: «the moral choice between accepting fascism and opposing it is the same,» she writes.What is the current situation in the US like for someone like Hustvedt, seeing ICE patrol her hometown? How are Americans responding to the continuous dismantling of their democracy and constitutional state? What is the role of the writer in critical times, and how may literature confront the material and interpersonal challenges that we are currently facing?Siri Hustvedt is among the most central writers and thinkers in the US. She has written a number of critically acclaimed novels and essay collections, including The Summer without Men, The Blazing World, The Shaking Woman or A History of My Nerves, and A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women.At the House of Literature, she was joined by writer and journalist Karin Haugen for a conversation about a US unraveling, and about the resistance in art and community.

Nei, å lese romaner er ingen løsning på vår politiske ulykke. Til det trengs organisering, aktiv motstand og hardere retorikk. Men vi trenger historier.Dette sa forfatter Siri Hustvedt i et foredrag på Litteraturhuset i 2017, i Trumps første år som president.Hustvedt er blant dem som både tar i bruk litteraturen og organiserer seg i møte med en hard politisk virkelighet. Sammen med ektemannen, forfatteren Paul Auster (1947-2024) startet hun Writers Against Trump (i dag Writers For Democratic Action), som blant annet arrangerer åpne folkemøter, demonstrasjoner og setter opp politisk teater. Hustvedt skriver om oppstarten av bevegelsen i sin seneste utgivelse Gjenferd: En kjærlighetshistorie, oversatt av Hilde Stubhaug.I møte med Trumps innskrenkninger av rettigheter, og immigrasjonspolitiet ICE sin framferd i en rekke amerikanske byer, har Hustvedt vært en tydelig kritiker. Selv er hun oppvokst i Minnesota med norske foreldre, og lærte tidlig om morens motstand mot nazi-okkupasjonen av Norge under krigen. I en fersk kronikk trekker hun linjer fra nordmennenes motstandskamp til de som protesterer i USA dag: «det moralske valget mellom å akseptere fascismen og å motsette seg den er det samme,» skriver hun.Hvordan oppleves situasjonen i USA for en som Hustvedt, som ser ICE patruljere i egne hjemtrakter? Hvordan forholder amerikanere seg til den stadige demonteringen av rettsstaten og demokratiet? Hva er forfatterens rolle i turbulente tider, og hvordan kan litteraturen møte de materielle og mellommenneskelige utfordringene vi står ovenfor?Siri Hustvedt er en av USAs fremste forfattere og tenkere. Hun er kjent for kritikerroste og prisvinnende romaner og essaysamlinger som Sommeren uten menn, Denne flammende verden, Den skjelvende kvinnen og Kvinne ser på menn som ser på kvinner.På Litteraturhuset møtte hun forfatter og journalist Karin Haugen til samtale om et USA som rakner, og om motstandskraften i kunsten og i menneskelige fellesskap. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Etter 43 års samliv, mister forfatter Siri Hustvedt ektemannen og forfatteren Paul Auster til en aggressiv kreftsykdom. Det er bare Siri igjen, i en ny tid der minnene, duftene og ordene fra tiden før siver inn. Etter hvert begynner hun å skrive, om sykdommen og den siste tiden, om den første tiden og den altoppslukende forelskelsen, om tiår med samliv fylt av glede og latter, av bøker og historier, av bekymringer og sorger. Det blir til boka Gjenferd. En kjærlighetshistorie (til norsk ved Hilde Stubhaug).Boka er en personlig beretning om livet til et folkekjært og kritikerrost forfatterpar, så vel som en utforskning av hvordan sorg og tap påvirker oss kroppslig og mentalt, i dialog med filosofien, litteraturhistorien og nevrovitenskapen. Sorgen over tapet av ektemannen blander seg med både sorg og sinne over hva slags land USA er i ferd med å bli, hva som går tapt, og hva som må kjempes for.Siri Hustvedt er en av USAs fremste forfattere og tenkere. Hun er kjent for kritikerroste og prisvinnende romaner og essaysamlinger som Sommeren uten menn, Denne flammende verden, Den skjelvende kvinnen og Kvinne ser på menn som ser på kvinner.Forfatter og journalist Marte Spurkland har skrevet personlig om å miste faren til kreft i den kritikerroste boka Pappas runer. Hun møtte Hustvedt til samtale om sorg, erindring og samliv. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After 43 years together, author Siri Hustvedt loses her husband, the author Paul Auster, to an aggressive form of cancer. Now there is only Siri left, in a time in which memories, smells and words from the time before seep in. Eventually, she starts writing; about Auster's illness and his last days, about their early days together and their all-consuming love, about decades of a shared life filled with joy and laughter, with books and stories, worries and sorrow. Hustvedt's writing eventually becomes the book Ghost Stories: A Memoir.Ghost Stories is a personal account of the life of a popular and critically acclaimed author-couple, as well as an exploration of how grief and loss affect us, physiologically and mentally, in dialogue with philosophy, literary history and neuroscience. The grief from losing her husband mingles with the grief and anger over what kind of country the United States is becoming, what is lost, and what is worth fighting for.Siri Hustvedt is among the most central writers and thinkers in the US. She has written a number of critically acclaimed novels and essay collections, including The Summer without Men, The Blazing World, The Shaking Woman or A History of My Nerves, and A Woman Looking at Men Looking at Women.Writer and journalist Marte Spurkland has also written a personal account of losing her father to cancer, in the critically acclaimed Pappas runer («Dad's Runes»). She met Hustvedt for a conversation about grief, memory and shared life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I ett samtal med Marie Lundström berättar Siri Hustvedt om livet som änka, om makens sista dagar, om deras 43 år ihop, om deras skrivande, om deras starka kärlek och största sorger.Under lång tid var de ett amerikanskt, världskänt författarpar, Paul Auster och Siri Hustvedt. Paul Auster föddes 1947, blev författare till en rad böcker som tex New York-trilogin, ett av 1980-talets måsten för den som överhuvudtaget var intresserad av litteratur. Siri Hustvedt föddes 1955, är både prisad akademiker och framgångsrik och hyllad romanförfattare med böcker som Vad jag älskade och Lily Dahls förtrollning.Det var ett slående vackert författarpar som bodde i Brooklyn, fick dottern Sophie Auster ihop och läste varandras halvfärdiga manus, texter som när de var klara spreds över stora delar av världen.Inte visste någon då att Paul Auster skulle komma att dö i cancer 77 år gammal. Eller att Siri Hustvedt vid 69 års ålder skulle bli änka och skriva en bok om Pauls sista tid och deras liv tillsammans.

Sådan siger forfatter Siri Hustvedt om de mystiske oplevelser, hun havde efter sin mands død. Hun var gift med den amerikanske stjerneforfatter Paul Auster, der døde i 2024 - og i sin nye bog skriver hun om deres kærlighed, ægteskab og sorger. I 'Genfærd' fortæller hun nemlig også om de medlemmer af familien, der ikke fik en nem død. Både Paul Austers søn og lille barnebarn døde af euforiserende stoffer. Vært Nanna Mogensen har mødt Siri Hustvedt, og undervejs taler de to om Amerika lige nu - og om, hvordan det har været for Siri Hustvedt at stå i skyggen af sin berømte ægtemand. I studier er litterat og redaktør Lotte Folke Kaarsholm dagens gæst. Redaktør: Hanne Barslund

Um kostbare Erinnerungen geht es diesmal bei den Literaturagenten. Siri Hustvedt hat mit "Ghost Stories" ein zutiefst berührendes Buch über ihr Zusammenleben mit Paul Auster geschrieben und denkt darin auch über den Platz der Trauer in unserer Gesellschaft nach. Wir blicken zurück auf Hustvedts Lesungen in Berlin und Potsdam. Christoph Peters war lange Jahre Alkoholiker. In seinem Buch "Entzug" erzählt er die abgründigen Erfahrungen eines Trinkers, der es schließlich schafft, seine Sucht zu überwinden. Manifeste Erinnerungsstücke finden sich in Museen und Archiven. Wir waren bei einer Führung in der Akademie der Künste, um frühe Briefe von Anna Seghers anzuschauen. Dazu Bücher über "Alte Wut", ein Wirkungstreffer von Pegah Ferydoni und ein Ausschnitt aus dem neuen Sörensen-Krimi von Sven Stricker.

Siri Hustvedt trauert um ihren Gefährten Paul Auster. Marc-Uwe Kling schickt sein Känguru auf die Barrikaden. Und Christoph Peters erzählt von seiner Alkoholsucht und dem Entzug.

Nereden Edebiyat'ın bu bölümünde konuğumuz, genellikle absürt kurgu ya da suç kurgusu türünde eserler üreten ABD'li yazar, şair ve senarist Paul Auster.

“Grief is a particular kind of unrequited love. It wasn't unrequited in the past. Usually, we think of unrequited love as you never got to do it, you never had it for yourself.

“Grief happens because you don't stop loving the person who died. The person doesn't exist in your reality anymore. The everyday is not colored and shaped by this other human being, but you don't stop loving the person. So grief is a particular kind of unrequited love.

Drees, Jan www.deutschlandfunk.de, Büchermarkt

Netz, Dina www.deutschlandfunk.de, Büchermarkt

Egyszerre a létező leghétköznapibb és közben egészen rendkívüli dolgokról szól Mécs Anna első regénye, a Rutin: egy fiatal pár küzdelméről a terhességért, majd pedig a kisgyermekükkel töltött első időszakról. Ez a feszültség, hogy ez valami olyasvalami, amin rengeteg mindenki átesett már, és közben mégis egyedi és megismételhetetlen, végigkíséri a kötetet, melyben a kortárs anyaság tapasztalata van elmesélve időnként felkavaró, sokszor pedig nagyon vicces történeteken keresztül. A Nem rossz könyvekben Mécs Annával beszélgettünk a regényről és még rengeteg mindenről, ami ennek nyomán eszünkbe jutott. A tartalomból: 00:00 Könyvek, amiket olvastunk mostanában: Andrew Ross Sorkin - 1929, Holdosi József - Kányák, Kaffka Margit - Színek és évek, és Edouard Louis - Leszámolás Eddyvel. 07:30 Jön az élő eseményünk: február 3-án Krasznahorkai László életművéről beszélgetünk majd szerkesztőjével, Szegő Jánossal. 08:55 És a mai vendégünk: Mécs Anna, akinek Rutin címmel jelent meg első regénye. Hogyan lehet az írást meg általában a munkát összeegyeztetni a kisgyerekes élettel? „Baba alszik, anya ír” praktikus jelmondata. És az íróműhelyek szerepe. 17:00 A fikció lehetőségei és a tudat, hogy úgyis ráolvassák majd a szerzőre a szöveget. Anyaság és a termékenységi küzdelem kortárs története, mint univerzális történet. „Autófikciós művet írva sokkal szemérmesebb lettem volna.” 20:45 Párhuzamos történetek a könyvben, ciklikusság a regényben és az életben. 30:00 Hogyan lesz irodalmi nyelv a kortárs anyaságot kísérő tapasztalatból? Iszonyú nagy tudatosság kell ahhoz, hogy az ember elnavigáljon ebben a világban. És a generációs különbségek szerepe és az elég jó nagyszülő. 38:00 A meddőségről való beszéd nehézségei 43:00 Könyvterv az édesapjáról, Mécs Imréről, és az említett Tények és tanú kötet Nóvé Béla szerkesztésében. 48:20 Három könyv Mécs Anna ajánlásában: Paul Auster - 4321, Anna Funder - Amivé lettünk és Halász Rita - Betonba hímezve.
