Le Livre de lecture

Wars I Have Seen first published in 1945 is the follow-up to Stein's very successful Paris France. With her great wit and highly original style, Stein gives an account of her life in France during two world wars. As a lesbian and as an American Jew, Stein had plenty to cope with under the Nazi occupation, and the humorous exploits she undertook to harass the Germans show us a side of Stein that may help to explain her strength in dismissing the whole literary establishment to pursue her own modernist writings. In this first British paperback edition of Wars I Have Seen Stein shows her best form and established beyond doubt her place as a pioneer and founder of contemporary literature.

Les guerres que j'ai vues

Paris France, de Gertrude Stein, fut publié en 1940, le jour même où Paris tomba aux mains des Allemands. Dans ce qui est à la fois un récit et un essai, l'écrivain mêle ses souvenirs personnels sur Paris, ses réflexions sur la France et les Français, la mode, la cuisine, la guerre, les animaux de compagnie et les artistes qu'elle côtoie. Ce voyage sentimental et poétique au cur d'une histoire et d'un pays nous vaut tout un lot d'anecdotes pleines d'humour et de pensées singulières. La dernière partie de ce livre est un article publié dans The Atlantic monthly qui raconte l'exode et les premiers temps de l'Occupation que Gertrude Stein allait passer dans un village du Bugey. Expérience qu'elle écrira dans Les Guerres que j'ai vues, son dernier ouvrage dont Paris France forme une sorte d'introduction. La dernière édition française de ce document humain et littéraire remarquable remontait à l'an 2000.

Paris-France

Gertrude Stein, as a college student at Radcliffe and a medical student at Johns Hopkins Medical School, was a privileged woman, but she was surrounded by women who were trapped by poverty, class, and race into lives that offered little choice. Her portraits of Anna and Lena are examples of realistic depictions of immigrant women who had no occupational choice but to become domestic workers. This collection of documents from the history of women''s suffrage, medical history, modernist art, and literature enables readers to see how radical Stein''s subject was.>

C'est Rose qui, assise ou non sur une chaise bleue, voit le monde et les animaux autour d'elle. C'est Rose qui, avec ou sans son cousin Willie, pense, chante, pleure et va sur la montagne. Voilà pour l'histoire, si l'on veut une histoire.

La version bilingue permet d'incarner les tribulations de Rose et Willie dans un texte à la fois chanson, poème, comptine, et légende, tout en goûtant la langue de Gertrude Stein si magnifiquement musicale.
