La obra de Noémi Lefebvre profundiza en la intrincada intersección de lo personal y lo político. Sus novelas exploran cómo la identidad individual es moldeada por fuerzas sociales e históricas. A través de un estilo agudo y perspicaz, descubre las complejidades de las relaciones adultas y la autopercepción. Su escritura ofrece un examen provocador de cómo los destinos personales se entrelazan con contextos políticos y culturales más amplios.
In this new novel by the acclaimed author of Blue Self-Portrait, a poet- narrator existing on a diet of cannabis, bananas and books on oppression under the Third Reich muddles through a national state of emergency. Their ten lessons to today's young poets form a blistering treatise on survival skills for the wilfully idle.
A contemporary novel of angst and high farce, Blue Self-Portrait unfolds among Berlin's cultural institutions but is more truly located in the mid-air flux between contrary impulses to remember and to ignore. Noemi Lefebvre shows how music continues to work on and through us, addressing past trauma while reaching for possible futures.
