Paperback. Condición: New. Poetry Book Society Summer Choice, Recommended Translation 2019. In The Cancer Journals Audre Lorde wrote, 'I do not wish my anger and pain and fear about cancer to fossilise into yet another silence, not to rob me of whatever strength can lie at the core of this experience, openly acknowledged and examined.' Founded on this same principle, The Following Scan Will Last Five Minutes was written in the three months following Dutch writer Lieke Marsman's cancer diagnosis. A series of short poems anchored by an essay that speaks directly to Lorde's journal entries and personal reflections on cancer, Marsman considers, among other things, the state of contemporary Dutch politics and - via Susan Sontag's Illness as Metaphor - the rhetoric surrounding her disease. A work of poetry, social criticism and autobiography, The Following Scan is an honest and dryly comic account of a period in the author's life that elides pretension in search of autonomy and self-knowledge. Beautifully translated by the poet Sophie Collins, the book also includes a translator's note in the form of a letter to her author and friend.…

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. When everything here feels unexpectedly hopeless, I'd like to think: On another planet they can save me.Faced with a terminal cancer diagnosis, poet Lieke Marsman embarks on an intellectual expedition to challenge the limits of the rational, secular worldview she once trusted, in an urgent quest for hope. In essays, poems and diary entries, she travels deep both into - and wildly beyond - herself. From ancient Greek myths to quantum mechanics, from UFOs to Wittgenstein, she traverses across the ages and disciplines to chart an unflinching, deeply philosophical journey in search of meaning in a world that offers none. On Another Planet They Can Save Me is a defiant celebration of the human spirit's refusal to surrender to despair - and a rallying cry for the power of wonder, even in the face of death. A brilliant, life-affirming and expansive meditation on mortality and the courage to imagine the unknown.
