In this intriguing volume, readers are invited into the intimate world of diary entries spanning several pivotal years. Michel Leiris offers a candid glimpse through his reflective lens from 1980 to 1984, revealing the complexities of personal and artistic life during a time of great change. The translation by Tomasz Swoboda captures the essence of Leiris's thoughts, presenting them with a clarity that resonates deeply.
Alongside Leiris's reflections, the text intertwines the evocative notes of Ilse Aichinger, who documents her experiences from 1950 to 1985. Through her poignant observations, Aichinger paints a picture of her surroundings, blending personal narratives with broader reflections on society and culture. This collection stands out not only for its literary value but also for its exploration of the human condition across different eras and perspectives.
Together, these voices create a tapestry of emotions and insights, engaging readers in a dialogue about memory, identity, and the role of the diarist. The responses evoke a sense of nostalgia while also encouraging a critical look at past and present.
