仕事を通じて、そしてプライベートにおいて、寺山修司と親交のあった著者が、寺山修司の素顔や情熱やその思想を、自身の記憶と共に詳細に語る。 天才と呼ばれた男の半生…その中にある頑なな信念と苦悩、そして晩年における病魔との闘い… 寺山修司の作品が、唯一無二の存在感を持つ所以、そして寺山修司の職業が「寺山修司」である所以が、著者の記憶の中に静かに、しかしはっきりと刻まれている。 本オーディオブックは、今まで知ることの出来なかった寺山修司の素顔を、そして著者の北川氏だからこそ知ることの出来た寺山修司の「強さと弱さ」を、ゆっくりと静かに語りかける。 寺山修司を知る上で、これ以上の「入門」は他に類を見ない程の内容となっている。 ※本商品は『寺山修司入門』(春日出版刊 北川登園著ISBN:978-4-86321-130-8 309頁893円(税込))をオーディオ化したものです。(C)2009 Takanobu kitagawa

As he was composing what was to become his most enduring and popular book, E. B. White was obeying that oft-repeated maxim: "Write what you know." Helpless pigs, silly geese, clever spiders, greedy rats - White knew all of these characters in the barns and stables where he spent his favorite hours. In The Story of Charlotte's Web, Michael Sims shows how White solved what critic Clifton Fadiman once called "the standing problem of the juvenile-fantasy writer: how to find, not another Alice, but another rabbit hole."

We remember Audre Lorde as an iconic writer, a quotable teacher whose words and face grace T-shirts, nonprofit annual reports, and campus diversity-center walls. But even those who are inspired by Lorde’s teachings on “the creative power of difference” may be missing something fundamental about her life and work, and what they can mean for us today. Lorde’s understanding of survival was not simply about getting through to the other side of oppression or being resilient in the face of cancer. It was about the total stakes of what it means to be in relationship with a planet in transformation.

Though numerous biographies have been published on William Faulkner, readers are often presented conflicting interpretations of his life and work. Faulkner’s view of himself and his own family was mercurial, and it is widely acknowledged that Faulkner was an unreliable narrator of his own life. As a result, biographies of Faulkner echo and complicate the multitude of ways he portrayed himself, accepting that truth, if it exists, is subjective. Like his work, Faulkner’s own life, then, is not only open to different readings but welcomes them within the landscape of his oeuvre.
