SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2022 MILES FRANKLIN LITERARY AWARDPain was Joe Grim's self-expression, his livelihood and reason for being.A superstar boxer who rarely won a fight, Grim distinguished himself for his extraordinary ability to withstand physical punishment.In this wild and expansive novel, Michael Winkler moves between the present day and Grim's 1908-09 tour of Australia, bending genres and histories into a kaleidoscopic investigation of pain, masculinity, and narrative.Pain is often said to defy the limits of language. And yet Grimmish suggests that pain - physical and mental - is also the most familiar and universal human condition; and, perhaps, the secret source of our impulse to tell stories."A powerful blast of literary ingenuity and originality." - Lloyd Jones, author of Mister Pip"Grimmish meets a need I didn't even know I had. I lurched between bursts of wild laughter, shudders of horror, and gasps of awe at Winkler's verbal command: the freshness and muscle of his verbs, the unstoppable flow of his images, the bizarre wit of the language of pugilism-and all the while, a moving subterranean glint of strange masculine tenderness." - Helen Garner?"All the makings of a cult classic. It's grotesque and gorgeous, smart and searching." - Beejay Silcox, The Guardian.

Ajouter au panierPaperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Pain was Joe Grim's self-expression, his livelihood and reason for being. In 1908-09 the Italian-American boxer toured Australia, losing fights but amazing crowds with his showmanship and extraordinary physical resilience.On the east coast Grim played a supporting role in the Jack Johnson-Tommy Burns 'Fight of the Century'; on the west coast he was committed to an insane asylum. In between he played with the concept and reality of pain in a shocking manner not witnessed before or since. Award-winning writer Michael Winkler braids the story of Grim in Australia, meditations on pain, thoughts on masculinity and vulnerability, plus questionable jokes into a highly creative haymaker.'The strangest book you are likely to read this year.' JM CoetzeeGrimmish meets a need I didn't even know I had.

Ajouter au panierEtat : New. Idioma/Language: Español. Ningún editor se atrevió con la primera novela de Michael Winkler, así que decidió publicarla él mismo. Gracias a los dioses de la literatura, Grimmish aterrizó en el panorama narrativo con su estilo desenfrenado y sus excesos. Esta «novela de no ficción desbaratada» se basa en la historia real de Joe Grim, un boxeador italoamericano de principios del siglo XX famoso por su capacidad para soportar el castigo asalto tras asalto. El dolor era la autoexpresión de Grim, su medio de vida y su razón de ser. En 1908, llegó a Australia para recorrer el circuito nacional de boxeo; en 1909, era un recluso involuntario en el asilo psiquiátrico de Perth. Entre medias, jugó con el concepto y la realidad del dolor de una forma impactante que no se había visto antes ni volvió a verse después. Winkler entrelaza la historia de Grim en Australia y sus meditaciones sobre el dolor con reflexiones sobre la masculinidad y la vulnerabilidad, en un hachazo altamente creativo. El ring de boxeo siempre ha sido un potente espacio metafórico y metafísico, un mundo de brutalidades contenidas y éxtasis feroces; un espejo grotesco de nuestra propia existencia. Así, Grimmish también se convierte en una alegoría del tormento del propio autor, que escribió durante años sin ser publicado. Tras soportar incesantes golpes en el ring de la vida, Winkler logró el reconocimiento merecido, siendo finalista del Miles Franklin Award, el premio literario más importante de Australia. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
