The Planetarium

Sarraute, Nathalie / Jolas, Maria
The Planetarium
A young writer has his heart set on his aunt's large apartment. With this seemingly simple conceit, the characters of The Planetarium are set in orbit and a galaxy of argument, resentment, and bitterness erupts. Telling the story from various points of view, Sarraute focuses below the surface, on the emotional lives of the characters in a way that surpasses even Virginia Woolf. Always deeply engaging, The Planetarium reveals the deep disparity...

Kindheit

Sarraute, Nathalie / Tophoven, Elmar
Kindheit
Natalja wächst unmittelbar vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg in Russland auf. Nach der frühen Trennung ihrer Eltern zieht sie mit der Mutter nach Paris - aus Natalja wird Nathalie. Als sie später die Ferien bei ihrem Vater und der eifersüchtigen Stiefmutter in der Schweiz, dem Ort seines politischen Asyls, verbringt, wird das Mädchen schlagartig reifen: Heimatlos und ohne feste Bezugsperson wird Nathalie Sarraute zur feinen Beobachterin menschlicher Ge...

Ritratto d'ignoto

Sarraute, Nathalie / Del Buono, O.
Ritratto d'ignoto
Chi racconta questa storia cerca innanzitutto di catturare, nei personaggi che ne attirano l'attenzione, quei moti segreti, inconfessati, appena coscienti, quei sentimenti allo stato nascente, senza nome che formano la trama invisibile dei nostri rapporti con gli altri e di ogni istante della nostra esistenza. Molle dispiegarsi di tentacoli, questo gli sembrano di primo acchito. Man mano però che il suo occhio inizia ad abituarvisi, che gli st...

Tropismi

Sarraute, Nathalie / Del Buono, O.
Tropismi
In biologia movimento orientato di un organismo, animale o vegetale, o di una sua parte, determinato dall'azione di uno stimolo esterno (luce, temperatura, umidità, gravità, fattori chimici, ecc.)". Così alla voce Tropismo della Treccani. Se Anthime Armand-Dubois, lo scienziato massone de I sotterranei del Vaticano, pretendeva, "in attesa di affrontare l'uomo, [...] di ridurre a "tropismi" tutta l'attività degli animali che osservava", Sarraut...

L'età del sospetto. Saggi sul romanzo

Sarraute, Nathalie / Meneghelli, D.
L'età del sospetto. Saggi sul romanzo
I critici hanno un bel fingere, da bravi pedagoghi, di non accorgersi di nulla, senza in compenso lasciarsi mai sfuggire l'occasione di proclamare, nel tono che si addice alle verità capitali, che il romanzo, a quanto è dato sapere, è e resterà sempre innanzitutto "una storia dove vediamo agire e vivere dei personaggi", e che un romanziere è degno di questo nome solo nella misura in cui è capace di "credere" nei suoi personaggi, cosa che gli c...

Childhood

Sarraute, Nathalie / Wright, Barbara
Childhood
Written when the author was eighty-three years old, but dealing with only the first twelve years of her life, this title is constructed as a dialogue between the author and her memory. It interrogates her interlocutor in search of her own intentions, more precise accuracy, and, indeed, the truth.

Planetarium

Sarraute, Nathalie / Jolas, Maria
Planetarium
The many narratives of The Planetarium, told from various points of view, revolve around a seemingly simple conceit: a young man has his heart and ambition set on his aunt's large apartment. But, as in Sarraute's other books, this plot forms only the surface of what is really "happening." Instead, Sarraute focuses on the emotional lives and internal thoughts of her characters in a way that goes beyond what Virginia Woolf did years before. The ...

Tropisms

Sarraute, Nathalie / Jolas, Maria
Tropisms
Hailed as a masterpiece by Jean Genet, Marguerite Duras, and Jean-Paul Sartre, Tropisms is considered one of the defining texts of the nouveau roman movement. Nathalie Sarraute has defined her work as the "movements that are hidden under the commonplace, harmless instances of our everyday lives." Like figures in a grainy photograph, Sarraute's characters are blurred and shadowy, while her narrative never develops beyond a stressed moment. Inst...

You Don't Love Yourself

Sarraute, Nathalie / Wright, Barbara
You Don't Love Yourself
Considered one of the major French writers of our century, Nathalie Sarraute is the author of several novels, plays, and essays, as well as of Childhood, her autobiography. A pioneer of the nouveau roman (or "new novel"), a literary movement that sought to free the novel from the confines of plot, characterization, and time, she was recently honored by the presentation of her complete works in the prestigious Pleiade series (other authors in t...

Do You Hear Them?

Sarraute, Nathalie / Jolas, Maria
Do You Hear Them?
The setting of Nathalie Sarraute's Do You Hear Them? is a dinner conversation between a father and his old friend about a recently acquired pre-Columbian statue. As they discuss the merits of the piece and art in general, the father hears his children upstairs giggling. This childish mirth is barbaric and devastating to the father, for in their laughter he hears them mocking his "old-fashioned" viewpoint and the energy he wastes by collecting ...
