    In deze urgente liefdesverklaring aan de creativiteit brengt kunstenaar en prijswinnende auteur Sara Baume het dagelijks proces van maken en schrijven in kaart en verbindt ze met ogenschijnlijk gemak het genot van minutieus handwerk met de jaarlijkse trek van zangvogels. Handwerk is een sprankelend, elegant, in een loepzuivere stijl geschreven pleidooi voor het scheppende leven en bovenal een bijna stiekeme inkijk in de schatkamer van een wonderlijke en veelzijdige auteur. Sara Baumes debuutroman Stommelen stampen slaan, won de Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize en werd in vele landen vertaald. Handwerk stond op de shortlist van de Rathbones Folio Prize. Voor haar werk kreeg ze de Davy Byrnes Short Story Award, de Hennessy New Irish Writing Award, de Rooney Prize, en de Irish Book Award. Ze ontving een Lannan Literary Fellowship en woont in West Cork, waar ze werkt als visueel kunstenaar en als schrijver.

    Bell en Sigh verhuizen vanuit de drukte van de stad naar een huis aan de Atlantische Oceaan in het zuidwesten van Ierland. Daar, op de flanken van een berg die ze vol vuur beloven ooit te gaan beklimmen, volgen ze steeds symbiotischer het ritme van de liefde en de zich aaneenrijgende seizoenen. Weken maanden jaren is een poëtische roman over het ontsnappen aan de waan van de dag en over het verlangen naar zelfbeschikking. Met de relatie van Bell en Sigh en het leven dat zij voor zichzelf creëren als beginpunt onderzoekt Sara Baume wat het betekent om af te wijken van de platgetreden paden die voor ons liggen en om elkaar, het leven en het landschap tot het ultieme lief te hebben.

    Opening Night

    'I met Mollie's paintings before I met Mollie.' Shortly after the imposed isolation of the pandemic, Sara Baume came across a painting at a pop-up exhibition in a renovated shed in rural West Cork. It so intrigued her that she was inspired to make contact with the artist. Mollie Douthit, a North Dakotan exile, was living and working alone in a log cabin down a ravaged laneway surrounded by rugged coastline. Sara and Mollie discovered they had much in common - a dysfunctional attitude towards companionship, a devotion to the daily rituals of their respective art practices, an affinity with nature. They started to meet every month for soup and punishing swims in the Atlantic. Sara fell under the spell of Mollie's paintings, pictures that welded memory and reality, and gradually started to write about them, curious as to whether any particular insight might be provided by the intimacy of friendship with the artist, and whether it might be possible to craft a book in the style of the paintings. But what she had not anticipated was that a settled period in her own life would coincide with a period of tumultuous change for Mollie, and soon she found herself squabbling with more complex ideas, about community and nationality, about neurosis and mysticism, about love and pain and the power of art.

    Opening Night

    As two women, both artists living and working along the coast of Ireland, come to know each other, we witness a profound meditation on friendship, mortality, creation, the everyday and the sublime.One day, Sara Baume attended the closing party of an exhibition in West Cork. She fell under the spell of two small paintings.Mollie Douthit of Grand Forks, North Dakota, was living and working, alone, in a cabin down an overgrown lane only a few miles away. Sara and Mollie made a quick start at friendship. They discovered much in common-a devotion to the daily rituals of their artistic practices, nature, walks, soup, solitude, grandmothers. They made a pact: every month, no matter the weather, they would swim in the Atlantic.Mollie was preparing for a new exhibition, building a series of paintings from her memories of a house on a Minnesota lake, one that had belonged to her grandparents when she was a child. She asked Sara to write the accompanying text. The pictures privileged impression over reality, rummaging in the vast, specific, slippery landscape of Mollie's mind. Sara set herself the challenge of writing a book that might work in the same way, portraying a series of events from memory while simultaneously insisting on the freedom to misremember, subtract, and embellish. Soon, though, Sara and Mollie encountered a tumult of change. Mysterious pain, long-distance love, lost family, the fear of failure: these and other realities barged into their story.Unusual in its intimacy, scope, and emphasis on the lives and practices of two unknown contemporary artists, Opening Night is nearly mystical in its exploration of what connects us to the past, the sublime, each other, and our selves.

    Sara Baume is a writer's writer, able to clothe her insights on life, art and human connection in beautifully evocative language. There are few living writers who can artistically convey compassion in a single sentence. Sara has given us all the gift of friendship with this book, but most importantly, has allowed us the privilege of getting to know Mollie through the creative lens of an unreliable memory

    L' occhio della montagna

    Nell¿inverno successivo al loro primo incontro, Bell e Sigh si trasferiscono nella campagna irlandese più remota. Sono giovani, innamorati, stufi della città e delle rispettive famiglie, pronti a cominciare una nuova vita. La loro casa è ai piedi di un monte dalla sommità appiattita, corrosa dai venti e da una luce millenaria: Bell e Sigh lo guardano, certi che un giorno ci saliranno. Una stagione dopo l¿altra, il loro quotidiano si riempie di cose piccole e importantissime, di gesti e riti ricchi di intimità, mentre le vecchie abitudini, il passato e perfino le parole perdono di consistenza. Il mondo di Bell e Sigh si restringe e perde i confini, indistinguibile da ciò che li circonda: gli occhi degli animali e i colori dei fiori, i suoni della pioggia sul terreno e i respiri del vento tra le rocce. Fino al giorno in cui il sentiero verso la cima del monte appare facile e accogliente, come l¿invito di un vicino gentile. L¿occhio della montagna è una profonda meditazione sull¿amore, sulla natura, su come allontanarsi dal mondo per poterlo scoprire davvero. Sara Baume torna con la prosa poetica e visionaria di "fiore frutto foglia fango" a esplorare l¿intensità dei sentimenti, quelli che ci legano come esseri umani, e quelli, più nascosti e inafferrabili, che ci uniscono a tutte le creature viventi.
