Описание: " gota Krist f packs volumes into this elegant shape-shifting novella. It's simultaneously a sly exploration of storytelling and a powerful narrative about immigration and the pitfalls of starting over in a new country. Yesterday is a necessary and uncannily timely work by one of the unsung geniuses of contemporary literature." -- Jeff Jackson, author of Destroy All Monsters and Mira Corpora
In spare, elegant prose, this modern novella recounts a troubled young man's flight from a judgmental village. Tobias, the illegitimate son of a prostitute and the local schoolmaster, finds peace with a factory job in the comfortable anonymity of a city. But his fragile respite is shattered by the appearance of Caroline, his boyhood love, who materializes with a husband and child in tow. This Dover edition marks Yesterday's first U.S. publication. Originally written in French by Hungarian author gota Krist f, this haunting exploration of dislocation, the search for love and belonging, and life as an emigrant continues to resonate today.
"Offers a lucid, poignant narrative of the struggle to find meaning in a world of 'unbearable waiting and . . . inexpressible silence.'" -- Publishers Weekly
"Many of Krist f's stark vignettes, reported in unflinching detail...have a cool, disturbing power -- part documentary-like, part surreal -- that is fierce and distinctive." -- Kirkus Reviews
" gota Krist f tackles the theme of the double and the irreparable damage caused by severance from one's roots with a writing of rare sobriety and a spareness which, avoiding all superfluous sentimentality, goes right to the heart." -- Marie Claire
"Krist f -- most brilliant when she is blackest -- plots a denouement that lies on the bleaker side of black. Read it, shudder, and utter thanks." -- Scotland on Sunday

Описание: There is an intrinsic connection between the notions of image and time. Visual images can strike us as incomplete, as ambiguous, unless they are moving ones, happening in time. However, time cannot be conceptualized except by metaphors, and so ultimately by images, of movement in space. The philosophy of images and the philosophy of time are interdependent. This book argues for the reality of time and for visual images as natural carriers of meaning. The experience of the passage of time, of the reality of time, is embodied and made visible in the bodily gestures of time, and indeed in all our gestures. Meaning, both emotional and cognitive, is grounded in the motor dimension. By implication, no meaningful philosophy of time can neglect the aspect of motor imagery.
