Ă propos de ce livre
Norma Jeane Baker of Troy is a partly spoken, partly sung performance piece by poet, essayist, and scholar Anne Carson, and an exploration of the lives and myths of Marilyn Monroe and Helen of Troy-iconic beauties who lived millennia apart. A thrilling and thoughtful meditation on the destabilising and destructive power of beauty, it had its world premiere at The Shed in New York City, starring Ben Whishaw and Renée Fleming.

HISTORY OF WAR: LESSON 3
If you pick a flower, if you snatch a handbag, if you possess a woman, if you plunder a storehouse, ravage a countryside or occupy a city, you are a taker. You are taking. In ancient Greek you use the verb ÎŹÏÏΏζΔÎčÎœ, which comes over into Latin as rapio, rapere, raptus sum and gives us English rapture and rape â words stained with the very early blood of girls, with the very late blood of cities, with the hysteria of the end of the world. Sometimes I think language should cover its own eyes when it speaks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enter NORMA JEANE.
Enter Norma Jeane as Norma Jeane.
Episode two.
The story so far:
TROY DOWN
THOUSANDS DEAD
NORMA JEANE TO BLAME
NORMA JEANE NOT TO BLAME
ARTHUR LOST (AT SEA)
NORMA JEANE CAPTIVE (CHATEAU MARMONT)
EXIT MR. TRUMAN CAPOTE TO LUNCH
WITH MISS PEARL BAILEY
NORMA JEANE sits, knits a bit, puts down knitting.
(Hereâs an aside.
Iâm not generally a weeping woman
but the sailor told me
a bit of news
I didnât mention before. About my daughter,
my dear one, back in New York.
What he heard is that
sheâs dropped out of school
and is hoarding her meds.
Hermioneâs her name.
She must be 17 now.
A golden flower of a girl.
A precarious girl.
Iâve wanted to call her so many times â Fritz Lang said
No -
we canât jeopardize the cloud scam.
MGM has a lot invested in this war at Troy,
even beside the movie deals thereâs spinoffs, casinos,
reality shows.
But Hermione!
Hermione is my own soul walking around in another
body.
So hereâs what I do when I really miss her.
I use the wind telephone.
A guy in Japan â remember that place in Japan where
they had the big wave,
the earthquake? and the sea
came up over the town, thousands drowned.
And the ones left behind
were so sad they couldnât live.
So this guy buys himself an old telephone booth,
sets it up by the side of the road
on the edge of town.
People can go in and dial a number
and talk to the dead, talk to their lost ones, talk to
the underworld.
Itâs rotary dial.
People find that comforting.
Most of them just say Hi Dad or Funny weather these
days or Guess what we got a dog -
but they come out of the booth smiling.
It was said in the town that the phone sometimes
rang
at odd hours.
Iâve no opinion on that).
Exit NORMA JEANE on wind phone, hand to ear, Hermione itâs me, hello hello hello hello hello.
Enter NORMA JEANE.
Enter Norma Jeane.
Episode three.
Surprise!
Enter Arthur.
I was downstairs chatting up the night clerk, Bobby.
Arthur just came walking into the lobby.
Looking like a bum. Smelling like a guy whoâs spent
7 years in the same shirt.
I tell you who was more surprised than me,
however,
was he.
No, he said.
No, he said eleven more times.
Iâll skip ahead.
He told me his Troy story -
basically nine years of cattle raids and pillaging the
locals...
