When you are alone - at sea, in the polar dark - an absence can keep you alive. The one you love maintains your mind. But when she's merely across the city, this is an absence that eats you to the bone.

— Anne Michaels, Fugitive Pieces

“Reading a poem in translation," wrote Bialek, "is like kissing a woman through a veil"; and reading Greek poems, with a mixture of katharevousa and the demotic, is like kissing two women. Translation is a kind of transubstantiation; one poem becomes another. You choose your philosophy of translation just as you choose how to live: the free adaptation that sacrifices detail to meaning, the strict crib that sacrifices meaning to exactitude. The poet moves from life to language, the translator moves from language to life; both like the immigrant, try to identify the invisible, what's between the lines, the mysterious implications.” ― Anne Michaels, Fugitive Pieces

＊Hayim Nahman Bialik: Jewish poet (January 9, 1873 – July 4, 1934)

”詩を翻訳で読むのは、ベールをとおして女性にきすするようなものだ”と、ビアーリクは書いている。ついでに言えば、純正語と民衆語の混交したギリシャ詩を読むのは、ふたりの女性にキスするようなものだろう。翻訳とは一種の化体をひきおこす作業である。ひとつの詩が、もうひとつ別の詩になる。翻訳者は、自分の生き方を決めるように、翻訳のしかたを決めることができる。細部を犠牲にして全体の意味を伝える自由訳もあれば、わかりやすさより原文との正確な対応を重視する逐語訳もある。詩人は現実から言葉へ移行し、翻訳者は言葉から現実へ移行する。どちらも移民のよ��に身を映しながら、目に見えないもの、行間にあるもの、神秘的な含意を、とらえようとする。（アン・マイクルズ『儚い光』黒原敏行訳）

“Important lessons: look carefully; record what you see. Find a way to make beauty necessary; find a way to make necessity beautiful.”

Rade Serbedzija and Robbie Kay in Fugitive Pieces (Jeremy Podeswa, 2007)

Cast: Stephen Dillane, Rade Serbedzija, Rosamund Pike, Ayelet Zurer, Robbie Kay, Ed Stoppard, Rachelle Lefevre, Themis Bazaka, Nina Dobrev, Diego Matamoros. Screenplay: Jeremy Podeswa, based on a novel by Anne Michaels. Cinematography: Gregory Middleton. Production design: Matthew Davies. Film editing: Wiebke von Carolsfeld. Music: Nikos Kypourgos. 

Jeremy Podeswa's Fugitive Pieces, adapted by the director from a novel by Anne Michaels, takes as its subject the experience of "survivor guilt." Its protagonist, Jakob Beer (played as a child by Robbie Kay and as a man by Stephen Dillane), escapes from the Nazis but loses his family in the Holocaust. He is rescued by Athos Roussos (Rade Serbedzija), a Greek archaeologist who was working in Poland on a dig and discovered Jakob hiding in the woods. Somehow -- the film is unclear on exactly how -- Athos smuggles Jakob out of Poland to his home in Greece, and after the war the two emigrate to Canada, where Athos has been invited to teach. Jakob grows up haunted by his childhood trauma, and his first marriage, to a woman named Alex (Rosamund Pike), ends when she reads his journals and discovers what a barrier Jakob's experiences have created between them. Jakob is particularly tormented by the loss of his sister, Bella (Nina Dobrev), a talented musician, who often appears in his dreams. Even after publishing a book about his life, Jakob doesn't fully overcome the past until after the death of Athos, whose wisdom he comes to appreciate with the help of another woman, Michaela (Ayelet Zurer). There is a subplot involving the Jewish couple across the hall from Athos and Jakob in Canada, whose son, Ben (Ed Stoppard), grows up hating his father, a Holocaust survivor, for his harshness: The father, for example, berates Ben for not finishing the apple he has been eating, reminding him how grateful people in the camps would have been for the food. Despite excellent performances from everyone, the film sinks too often into sentimentality and stereotypes: Serbedzija's performance is a standout, but he can't overcome the fact that Athos, though a university professor, is presented as too much the wise and kindly peasant-sage, preaching the value of ties to the earth. There are some major gaps in the narrative, like the journey from Poland to Greece, and some overall shapelessness, and the ending is much too pat.

Gods, I've remembered Fugitive Pieces by Anne Michaels exists. I read it over a decade ago. Apparently they made a movie or TV series from it too; I never knew. It's rare for a book I only read once to have individual lines that haunt me as much as the ones I remember from Fugitive Pieces have. I searched through quotes on bookblr and none of the ones I remember most are there. I'm not surprised. It was one of those books that would hit each reader in a different secret place depending on who they were, and it had so many beautiful lines.

The one that's stuck most with me is a question I've never had an answer for, not yet. IIRC it is asked by an aspiring poet, a grown up child of two holocaust survivors, to an older poet he admires, who survived the holocaust as a child. We the reader are only given this moment after a detailed account of the lifelong effects the younger poet's parents live with.

"How do you hate everything you came from, without hating yourself?"

I'll find out someday. I'm closer than I ever was, that much I can feel. If you hate everything you came from too, maybe we can show eachother the way.

Since we're criticizing the fr staff let me just say that the special treatment that y1 (and y2 to some extent) festival items get is frankly a bit ridiculous. Like literally whats so different and special about them that they cant for any reason go into the spare inventory crate? Either retire all fest items forever or put them all in the crate, don't just pick and choose! Makes it seem like anyone who joined after 2014 had just worse fest items that aren't worth keeping exclusive. Sorry I wasn't here to collect my light sprite or whatever i was -checks calendar- 11 years old. Guess I'll have to save up 200k gems! (or whatever the price is nowadays)

#talk tag #fr #flight rising #i get saving up for more exclusive items but paying almost 15k gems for a single piece of apparel is not very fun! #lets face it theres not really anything like the y1 fest apparel so you cant even get suitable replacements for them #sure. there are the recolors that could replace the originals in Some dragons but like. we have nothing equivalent to- #-frigid fugitives shackles or the forgetools!

Flying Low

A magical AU where Law is a raven shapeshifter, but has had his wings torn off, so he is always using a cane to balance himself and he lives in seclusion in the forest. He absolutely doesn't trust, well, anyone. Whether humans or other shapeshifters or any other race, he doesn't approach anyone and does everything he can to not let them approach his home either. But that changes when one day a guy just falls from the sky. It literally falls from the sky. Right in the middle of Law's herb garden and although he really wants to get rid of this invader, he can't get rid of his curiosity because Law's house is in the middle of the forest, far from peaks or mountains, so where the hell is this guy came from and, even better, how did he survive the fall? Curiosity (and his sense of duty as a healer) causes Law to drag the guy inside and nurse him back to health. 'The guy' soon wakes up and gets a name, Luffy, who reveals himself to be a priest of the Sun God's temple, which makes sense to Law, since Luffy's magic seems totally opposite to his, a raven whose species is constantly attributed to the Goddess of Darkness, Nika's enemy. All this, however, does not explain how Luffy fell out of nowhere from the sky and it only gets worse when not even Luffy knows how it happens. Unfortunately for Law, meeting Luffy is a path of no return and in the blink of an eye his isolated and peaceful life is disturbed by the priest who, after returning to full health, becomes a noisy guest in Law's small cabin. Things get weird when Law's wings start to grow back, white instead of black, at the same time that Luffy also starts to change. For worse. His health simply declines and his magic grows and becomes out of control, becoming a danger to everything around him, excluding, in some way, Law. Desperate to understand and help Luffy, Law begins his journey out of seclusion toward the capital's temple, where Luffy is said to serve as a priest. But dragging a time bomb in the shape of a man all the way to the capital is not simple when you are alone and Law has no option but to accept the growing number of people who seem to be drawn into Luffy's orbit and who decide to accompany them on the journey

#one piece #lawlu #lulaw #Law said 'I want to live in peace alone in a forest' and Luffy took it as a personal challenge #is just one piece but magical shapped #also luffy is about to explode #Other than that it's basically magic op #law said 'I want to take Luffy to the temple as quickly and as peacefully as possible' and EVERYONE took this as a personal challenge #nakamaship is what it is #Luffy is Nika but I think we already knew that. #he simply sealed himself in a human form or something and ended up awakening the seal when he began unconsciously healing Law's wings. #law said 'I don't want friends' and as always people felt challenged #People need to leave this guy alone he's going to have an aneurysm #This was supposed to be a winged au but I forgot what I was going to write lol #There is Zoro a half-blood tiger #Sanji a fugitive prince #Ussop a cursed wooden doll whose magic is highly fabricated based on his lies #Nami a witch who doesn't seem to know she has witch blood #Robin a mysterious shapeshifter who refuses to show her animal form (shes a godamn octopus) #Franky a robot who #similar to ussop #was cursed with sapience #Brook an undead whose bones were the only thing left #And Jimbe a fishman who was far from home at sea #they simply meet on the way #they look at Luffy (a strange and very friendly guy who attracts them) and Law (a grumpy guy who doesn't want them around) #they think 'hmm I should join the party' #much to law's despair lmao
