Tennessee Williams, Asem\u0103narea dintre o cutie de vioar\u0103 \u0219i un sicriu,<\/em> traducere de Ioana Tudor, Editura ART, 2022<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Tennessee Williams (1911-1983) este prea cunoscut ca dramaturg \u2013 piesele sale de teatru premiate cu Pulitzer au fost adaptate inclusiv pentru cinema \u2013 pentru a st\u00eerni interes \u0219i ca autor de proz\u0103 scurt\u0103, \u00een ciuda faptului c\u0103 a scris vreo \u0219ase volume de povestiri (c\u00eeteva povestiri fiind de asemenea adaptate pentru cinema), deloc mai prejos dec\u00eet restul operei sale. Dac\u0103 nu m\u0103 \u00een\u0219el, acest mic volum de proz\u0103 scurt\u0103 este primul tradus la noi \u0219i, \u00een lipsa unei note asupra edi\u021biei, cele nou\u0103 povestiri par a fi fost selectate dintre cele scrise \u00eentre anii 1937-1955 (adic\u0103 perioada de \u00eenainte de debut \u0219i cea a marilor succese), plus dou\u0103 texte din anii \u201970 (perioada de umbr\u0103 a carierei sale, c\u00eend alcoolul \u0219i consumul de droguri i-au afectat cariera).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La o privire de par\u021bial ansamblu, aceast\u0103 restr\u00eens\u0103 selec\u021bie din proza lui scurt\u0103 (cam zg\u00eercit\u0103 selec\u021bie, dat fiind c\u0103 apare totu\u0219i \u00eentr-o \u201eSerie de autor\u201d) are ca protagoni\u0219ti tineri afla\u021bi \u00een fa\u021ba unor momente decisive, de intrare \u00een via\u021ba de adult, de confruntare cu propria alteritate, de acceptare a propriei diferen\u021be sau de adaptare a diferen\u021bei lor \u00een societate.
