McCarthy Mary Title : Gli uomini della sua vita
Author: McCarthy Mary
Publisher: Minimum Fax

Ambientato nella New York degli anni Trenta, 'Gli uomini della sua vita' è la storia di Margaret Sargent, una donna giovane e brillante che si fa conoscere nei circoli intellettuali più bohémien della città sostenendo posizioni politiche provocatorie e conducendo una vita sessualmente disinibita, lontana anni luce dalla rigida educazione cattolica ricevuta da bambina. Questo romanzo a episodi fotografa Margaret in sei momenti chiave della sua vita. Di volta in volta la vedremo rivelare un tradimento al marito, lavorare come segretaria per un gallerista truffaldino, attraversare l'America nel vagone letto di un uomo sposato, scandalizzare gli ospiti a una cena mondana, animare la redazione di una rivista culturale e infine stendersi sul lettino dell'analista per una lunga, forse salvifica seduta. Pubblicato originariamente nel 1942, l'esordio letterario di Mary McCarthy è il ritratto di un personaggio femminile estremamente moderno, che a distanza di settant'anni ci affascina ancora con l'anticonvenzionalità e la libertà delle sue idee. Prefazione di Guia Soncini.

McCarthy Mary Title : Il gruppo
Author: McCarthy Mary
Publisher: Minimum Fax

Torna in libreria - in una nuova edizione e con una traduzione riveduta e corretta dalla stessa traduttrice - il capolavoro di Mary McCarthy, e a più di cinquant'anni dalla sua pubblicazione è ancora più attuale che mai: un ritratto corale al femminile caustico e feroce, che mette alla berlina il sessismo e le illusorie consolazioni del progresso, raccontando, attraverso una serie di storie individuali, un'intera epoca. Il «gruppo» del titolo è costituito da otto inseparabili amiche, rigorosamente upper class, compagne di studi al Vassar, prestigioso college femminile. Dopo la laurea, nel 1933, iniziano tutte a inseguire qualcosa di diverso da ciò che il destino gli ha assegnato, ma collezionano errori e sconfitte. Il romanzo le segue a turno nelle loro vicende erotiche e familiari, che passano attraverso matrimoni poco felici e tradimenti, ma anche scelte sorprendenti e meno convenzionali. Un'opera affilata, di ampio respiro, in perfetto equilibrio tra satira e tragedia, e un affresco impeccabile dell'America di Roosevelt e del New Deal, sospesa tra i sogni di benessere collettivo e il permanere di un classismo spesso brutale. Prefazione di Luca Briasco.

McCarthy Mary, Gornick Vivian (INT) Title : The Oasis
Author: McCarthy Mary, Gornick Vivian (INT)
Publisher: Melville House Pub

A vicious and brilliant satire of human vanity from the author of the classic bestseller The Group

Long out of print, Mary McCarthy's second novel is a bitingly funny satire set in the early years of the Cold War about a group of writers, editors, and intellectuals who retreat to rural New England to found a hilltop utopia. With this group loosely divided into two factions—purists, led by the libertarian editor Macdougal Macdermott, and the realists, skeptics led by the smug Will Taub—the situation is ripe not only for disaster but for comedy, as reality clashes with their dreams of a perfect society.

Though written as a roman à clef, McCarthy barely disguised her characters, including using her former lover Philip Rahv, founder of Partisan Review, as the model for Will Taub. As a result, the novel caused an absolute explosion of outrage among the literary elite of the day, who clearly recognized themselves among her all-too-accurate portraits. Rahv threatened a lawsuit to stop publication. Diana Trilling, Lionel Trilling's wife, called McCarthy a 'thug.' McCarthy's friend Dwight McDonald (Macdougal Macdermott) called it 'vicious, malicious, and nasty.'

Never one to shy away from controversy, McCarthy's portrait of her generation had indeed drawn blood. But the brilliance of the novel has outlasted its first detonation and can now be enjoyed for its aphoritic, fearless dissection of the vanities of human endeavor.

In an added bonus, the renowned essayist Vivian Gornick details in a moving introduction the importance of McCarthy's intellectual and artistic bravery, and how she influenced a generation of young writers and thinkers.

McCarthy Mary Title : Ricordi di un'educazione cattolica
Author: McCarthy Mary
Publisher: Minimum Fax

Questa è la storia di una bambina che perde entrambi i genitori a sei anni e viene affidata alle 'cure' di nonni e prozii troppo bigotti per distinguere il confine tra la pedagogia e il sadismo, e che in seguito viene salvata da una coppia di nonni più affettuosi e bonari ma altrettanto severi nel loro conformismo sociale. E la storia di un'educazione rigida e di infiniti passaggi, da un collegio religioso all'altro, da Minneapolis a Seattle, da una famiglia cattolica a una protestante. Ma è anche una storia di scoperte e innamoramenti, di accesi litigi e comici malintesi: tra discussioni teologiche con i padri gesuiti sull'esistenza di Dio, recite scolastiche ambientate nell'antica Roma repubblicana, gite istruttive ai parchi naturalistici che si tramutano in rocamboleschi tour de force alcolici, vere o presunte iniziazioni sessuali, letture proibite e appuntamenti clandestini, la personalità della bambina lascia gradualmente il posto a quella di un'adolescente ribelle e infine a quella di una giovane donna lucida e coraggiosa, aliena alle convenzioni e a ogni forma di moralismo.

Weil Simone, Bespaloff Rachel, McCarthy Mary (TRN), Benfey Christopher (INT) Title : War and the Iliad
Author: Weil Simone, Bespaloff Rachel, McCarthy Mary (TRN), Benfey Christopher (INT)
Publisher: New York Review of Books

War and the Iliad is a perfect introduction to the range of Homer's art as well as a provocative and rewarding demonstration of the links between literature, philosophy, and questions of life and death.

Simone Weil's The Iliad, or the Poem of Force is one of her most celebrated works--an inspired analysis of Homer's epic that presents a nightmare vision of combat as a machine in which all humanity is lost. First published on the eve of war in 1939, the essay has often been read as a pacifist manifesto. Rachel Bespaloff was a French contemporary of Weil's whose work similarly explored the complex relations between literature, religion, and philosophy. She composed her own distinctive discussion of the Iliad in the midst of World War II--calling it "her method of facing the war"--and, as Christopher Benfey argues in his introduction, the essay was very probably written in response to Weil. Bespaloff's account of the Iliad brings out Homer's novelistic approach to character and the existential drama of his characters' choices; it is marked, too, by a tragic awareness of how the Iliad speaks to times and places where there is no hope apart from war.

This edition brings together these two influential essays for the first time, accompanied by Benfey's scholarly introduction and an afterword by the great Austrian novelist Hermann Broch.
