Summary

Judith Schalansky: List of Certain Losses

List of Certain Losses by award-winning German author Judith Schalansky is a collection of twelve stories about lost things. Whether it's a Pacific island, an extinct species of tiger, a noble villa or Sappho's verses, the author imagines the last moments of these creatures, bringing them into contact with characters whose efforts are aimed at saving them from oblivion. In this way, she plays with memory, traces, and presence: in her stories, the materially lost collides with its rediscovery in writing, and past beings are brought back to life in the phenomenological act of remembering and imagining. Balancing on the border of fact and fiction, the author, using diverse narrative styles, urges us to think equally about loss and finding, disappearance and emergence, memory and oblivion. Judith Schalansky, born in 1980 in Greifswald, is a German writer, editor and graphic designer. Her books, including the successful collection of essays Atlas of Remote Islands: Fifty Islands I've Never Been to, and I Never Will and the novel The Giraffe's Neck, have been translated into more than twenty languages and won multiple awards. The book List of Certain Losses is Judith Schalansky's sixth book. So far, it has been translated into several world languages. In Germany, in the two years since it was published, it has been reprinted four times, and the author received the Wilhelm Raabe Award for it in 2019. In 2019, she was admitted to the German Academy of Language and Poetry.
