Constance Street: Part 1 of 3
¥36.50
One forgotten street, 12 unforgettable women. ‘’Ang on boy, Joan’s got sumfink to show yer.’ She rummaged in a drawer for a moment, pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to me. ‘Constance Street,’ she said. ‘As I remember it.’ Through the story of one street – Constance Street – we hear the true life tales of a tight knit group of working class women in the East End of London set against a backdrop of war, hardship and struggle. It’s a story of matriarchy and deep family ties, of a generation that was scattered away from the street during the blitz bombings, but which maintained the ties of that street for decades afterwards. Set in an area of East London called Silvertown, a once thriving docking community that at the turn of the 20th century was the industrial heartland of the south of England; the story focuses on the lives of 12 incredible women and their struggle to survive amidst the chaos of the war years. We have Nellie Greenwood, the author’s great grandmother who runs a laundry in Silvertown which becomes the focal point of the community. In 1917 a munitions factory in Silvertown explodes flattening much of the surrounding area and causing extensive damage to Constance Street – Nellie’s daughter is blown from her crib but miraculously survives. Deciding to open the laundry as a field hospital for the injured, Nellie and the women on the street come together to tend the wounded, the sick and the emotionally shattered as they cope with the aftermath of not just one but two world wars. Through the Great War, the roaring Twenties, the Depression and then the unimaginable – the outbreak of a second world war – Nellie and the street survive with love, laughter and friendships that bind the community together. But just as this incredible group of women live through the worst, the unthinkable happens. On 7 September 1940, Constance Street is no more. Following in the footsteps of Farewell to the East End by Jennifer Worth and The Sugar Girls, Constance Street is a life-affirming, heart-warming read that reminds us of a time when people pulled together.

Márta, a fiatal grafikuslány váratlan küldeményt kap Németországból, és ezzel az élete egy szempillantás alatt a feje tetejére áll. A levél visszarepíti ?t a múltba, tíz évvel korábbra, amikor fest?n?vendékként Drezdába érkezve egyszerre szeretett bele a városba, a királyi kincstár barokk gy?ngyfiguráiba, és az egyik n?s tanárába. A férfi azóta elt?nt az életéb?l, most azonban arra kéri, fordítson le neki egy 18. századi, magyar nyelven született útinaplót. A napló lapjain kibontakozó t?rténet nemcsak a gy?ngyfigurák alkotójának kilétére derít fényt, hanem arra is, kit ábrázol a titokzatos festmény, amelyet Márta tíz évvel korábban Drezdából hozott magával. Egy kül?nleges lány alakja ?lt testet a szemünk láttára a napló lapjain, aki szembemegy minden szabállyal és k?t?ttséggel, aki a saját útját járja, ezáltal nemcsak ?nmagát, hanem az általa szeretett férfit is veszélybe sodorva. Mire a kézirat végére ér, Mártának még egy kérdésre választ kell találnia: létezik-e második esély a szerelemben? M?rk Leonóra újságíró, szerkeszt?, fordító, írásai t?bbek k?z?tt az Elle-ben és a N?k Lapjában olvashatók. ?jságírói élményei nyomán született meg els? regénye, Az utolérhetetlen Mr. Yorke, melyet azóta két újabb k?vetett, A Hellinger-Madonna és a Holdfény szonáta. Olyan k?nyveket szeret írni, amilyeneket olvasni is: t?bb id?síkon játszódó t?rténeteket, amelyek során a múlt és a jelen egymásba játszik, és a hasonlóságok nyomán magunkra ismerünk.

Discursul poetic preios i limpede, lipsit de dramatism nvluie tragismul existenial, sugernd, peste fragmentarismul unei existene, viziunea izbvitoare, ascensional, pur, emanat de raza logosului integrator. Poezia fr evenimente pe care o scrie Liviu Antonesei aspir spre perfeciune formal...“ – Cezar IvnescuDac n-ar fi existat teroarea cenzurii, dac n-ar fi existat ceaushima, dac n-ar fi existat teama redactorilor de carte, dac n-ar fi existat delatorii, aa ar fi artat cartea aprut n 1989 la Cartea Romneasc, sub titlul Pharmakon. Dar, dac toate acestea n-ar fi existat, ar mai fi fost ea oare scris Imposibil de rspuns. Nu-mi rmne, deci, dect s m bucur c toate cele care au existat – i nc multe altele – nu mai exist i, pn la urm, cartea (bun sau rea, asta vor decide cititorii i criticii) apare aa cum am gndit-o, aa cum s-a scris de-a lungul a zece sau cincisprezece ani. Nici eu nu tiu de cnd dateaz cel mai vechi poem din volum. mi amintesc numai c o prim versiune a acestui manuscris a fost depus prima dat la o editur n 1979-1980. De-atunci, manuscrisul a tot fost modificat pn a ajuns la aceast form definitivat n primvara anului 1988, depus la editur i aprut n anul urmtor mai mult dect njumtit. Aa a fi vrut s apar atunci. Aa o voi lsa, deci, s fie tiprit acum, indiferent de imperfeciunile ce le voi fi observat ntre timp. Este limpede c, din acest moment, volumul de debut n poezie Pharmakon nu mai exist.“ – Liviu Antonesei
