Radiant Days Tapa dura - 2012

de Elizabeth Hand

A riveting, hypnotic look at thepower of art by multiple award winner Elizabeth Hand.

Seventeen-year-old Meredith lives for her art - butafter her girlfriend Lindsey commits suicide, eventhat can't save her. Desperate, Mer abandons artschool and makes her way home to Washington,D.C., intending to kill herself. A chance street encounterleads her to a lockhouse by the river, whichleads her to craft something remarkable - a wallpainting that is a doorway through art and time.Through it comes the young Arthur Rimbaud, the"child poet," who is equally desperate. The twoartists - one visual, one verbal - change each other'slives. The brilliant Elizabeth Hand, author of GenerationLoss, Waking the Moon, and the World FantasyAward-winning Illyria, has crafted a story thatwill burn itself into readers' minds.

Resumen

She is a painter. He is a poet. Their art bridges time.

It is 1978. Merle is in her first year at the Corcoran School of Art, catapulted from her impoverished Appalachian upbringing into a sophisticated, dissipated art scene. It is also 1870. The teenage poet Arthur Rimbaud is on the verge of breaking through to the images and voice that will make his name. The meshed power of words and art thins the boundaries between the present and the past - and allows these two troubled, brilliant artists to enter each other's worlds. Radiant Days is a peerless follow- up to Elizabeth Hand's unforgettable, multiply starred Illyria.

Reseñas en medios

Booklist While reading Radiant Days, it becomes clear that what elevates Hand's work above that of her peers and makes her one of the strongest writers for teens today is the gorgeousness of her language. Readers of her adult mysteries and sly fantasies will have learned to expect nothing less but for teens navigating a sea of interchangeable and forgettable paranormal titles, the images and emotions Hand conjures up will likely startle and shock. In the voice of Arthur she writes: "People want poetry to be a nursemaid. I want to be a murderer and a thief. Art should be... ugly, and hurt so you can feel it. That's what makes it powerful."



By showing Arthur Rimbaud as a modern day hero on par with the significance of Kurt Cobain, or Jack Kerouac before him, Hand shows that nothing is beyond her literary reach. Radiant Days is a most startling achievement.
