DREAMS, LANGUAGE and POETRY: Oct 25, 5-7 pm Alliance française de Pasadena

DREAMS, LANGUAGE and POETRY: a conversation with the trilingual poet, translator and actress HELENE CARDONA, on her latest book “Le Songe de mes Ames Animales/ Dreaming My Animal Selves.”

We will explore bridging languages and cultures and discuss literature, poetry, translation, theatre and cinema, dream work, and the quest for spirituality and expansion of consciousness.
Moderated by Dr. Michele Druon.

http://afdepasadena.org/events/2014/1...

DREAMING MY ANIMAL SELVES is an intriguingly surreal journey through myth, legend, fantasy, and more – all guided by a shape-shifting narrator searching far and wide for cosmic unity within the discontinuous landscape of dream and the dreamy, fragmented quality of the everyday world. The dual-language text ( Dreaming My Animal Selves/Le Songe de Mes Ames Animales by Helene Cardona English and French) works to heighten the narrator’s shifting perceptions, symbol by symbol, vision by vision.

In FRENCH and ENGLISH

DRINKS and SNACKS will be served after the presentation. Free for AF members and $10 for non-members

2017 Best Book Awards
Sponsored by American Book Fest

The 14th Annual Best Book Awards have just been announced!
http://americanbookfest.com/2017bbapr...

"Thank you to the thousands of authors and publishers who participated in our 14th annual Best Book Awards. Every year brings incredible entries from all of the world. We will continue to feature quality mainstream, indie, and self-published books now and in the future! CONGRATULATIONS to all of the winners and finalists!"
—Jeffrey Keen, President & CEO, American Book Fest

"Hélène Cardona has delivered to us a book in which she celebrates the magic of parallel worlds. Two languages, two persons, one testimony. Not so much a disclosure of truth, as much as the revelation of doubt. What sways above the emptiness is a life lived in complete awe. Cardona balances over a cosmos of fragments. The sparkling, the reflections do not throw back a perfect mirror image. Lives are shared, not possessed. The result is a song for the acceptance of doubleness, pluralism. Hélène Cardona provides synthesis for what is inevitably separated."
