If I Had Not Seen Their Sleeping Faces: fragments on death after Anna de Noailles - Christina Tudor-sideri

Descriere If I Had Not Seen Their Sleeping Faces: fragments on death after Anna de Noailles - Christina Tudor-sideri

\nthe trembling metaphor of why we live, and how, and for how long, of how we strive for a good death, the kaleidoscopic haze of what remains on the path once we've shed our febrile skin in a miasmic atmosphere where everyone has been asleep for ages and the only sound a heart makes is that of the pen touching the page \n \n \n\n \nWith lines from Les Vivants Et Les Morts by Anna de Noailles as preambles to its fragments, If I Had Not Seen Their Sleeping Faces is first and foremost a refusal of the modern tendency to exile death and the dying, but also an invitation to revisit the old Epicurean dictum: Death is nothing to us.\n
