In a letter to an editor, Ribeyro said about his stories, 'in most of [them] those who are deprived of words in life find expression-- the marginalized, the forgotten, those condemned to an existence without harmony and without voice. I have restored to them the breath they've been denied, and I've allowed them to modulate their own longings, outbursts, and distress.' This is work of deep humanity, imbued with a disorienting lyricism that is Ribeyro's alone. The Word of the Speechless, edited and translated by Katherine Silver, is the first gathering of this great writer's work to appear in English. It introduces readers to an indispensable and unforgettable voice"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Tracks -- Out at sea -- Meeting of creditors -- The insignia -- Doubled -- The substitute teacher -- A nocturnal adventure -- At the foot of the cliff -- Barbara -- Ridder and the paperweight -- Nothing to be done, Monsieur Baruch -- The first snowfall -- The wardrobe, old folks, and death -- Silvio in El Rosedal -- For smokers only -- A literary tea party -- The solution -- Nuit Caprense cirius illuminata -- Music, Maestro Berenson, and yours truly. 650 0 $a Short stories, Peruvian $v Translations into English. 700 1 $a Silver, Katherine, $e translator. $e translator. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ribeyro, Julio RamoÌn, 1929-1994, author. $t Word of the speechless $d New York : New York Review Books, [2019] $z 9781681373249 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191204015357.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20191113010503.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B3026304B81211E9A4E5754297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
