Jackie Kay’s new collection is a lyric counterpart to her memoir, Red Dust Road, the extraordinary story of the search for her Nigerian and Highland birth-parents; but it is also a moving book in its own right, and a deep enquiry into all forms of human friendship. Fiere – Scots for ‘companion, friend, equal’ – is a vivid description of the many paths our lives take, and of how those journeys are made meaningful by our companions on the road: lovers, friends, parents, children, mentors – as well as all the remarkable and chance acquaintances we would not otherwise have made.

Als Vorleser hinterließ er aufgrund seiner Sprachgewalt und Persönlichkeit angeblich einen äußerst außergewöhnlichen Eindruck.

Story
An elderly Blackfeet warrior tells the story of his youth, when his tribe owned and lived free on the great plains at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. During those days of freedom and plenty, they hunted the vast herds of buffalo, worshipped their ancient gods, and sought glory in war parties against their traditional tribal enemies. In order to achieve his adulthood in the tribe, Little Otter must face the dangerous vision quest to find his sacred helper and then risk death as a member of a daring war party. Most of all, though, Little Otter wants to become a Sun priest.

Story
Zwei Meisterwerke des großen russischen Realisten. In Der Schneesturm nimmt Tolstoi die Leserinnen und Leser mit auf eine Irrfahrt durch eine lebensfeindliche Umwelt: Eine Gruppe von Männern versucht, mit Pferdeschlitten durch einen Schneesturm hindurch an ihr Ziel zu gelangen und verliert dabei die Orientierung. Wie mit einem Brennglas entwirft Tolstoi Psychogramme der handelnden Figuren und beschreibt - nicht ohne eine Prise Humor – ihr Verhalten im Angesicht latenter Lebensgefahr durch die übermächtige Natur.

Story
El año en que la democracia se perdió, una mujer lo dejó todo para impedirlo. Mientras Alfonso maneja hacia Tixtla donde agoniza Ubalda, una maestra rural y luchadora social, recuerda el momento en que la conoció, así como los acontecimientos políticos y sociales que sacudieron la vida democrática de México en los años ochenta y que, inevitablemente, terminaron marcando la historia de ella: el abandono de su hija, la desaparición forzada de su esposo, y su doloroso exilio.

Story
In fuga dalla schiavitù, il viaggio di una madre alla ricerca dei figli e della libertà. "È questa la libertà?" si chiede Rachel, mentre corre in una foresta immersa nel buio, sola, atterrita, esausta. Sta scappando dalla piantagione in cui ha trascorso tutta la sua esistenza, da un lavoro sfibrante, da un padrone brutale. Lo stesso padrone che, quella mattina del 1834, ha annunciato la fine della schiavitù, per poi aggiungere che tutti loro avrebbero dovuto prestare servizio come apprendisti per altri sei anni. Una beffa atroce. In quell'istante, qualcosa in Rachel si è spezzato.
