About the Book

Nancy Morejon ist schon zeitlebens eine klassische Autorin Kubas und Spanischamerikas. Sie schreibt hauptsachlich Poesie und Essays. Ihre Gedichte sind in viele Sprachen ubersetzt worden, und sie hat zahlreiche Auszeichnungen auf internationaler Ebene erhalten. In diesem Band mit ausgewahlten Gedichten wird deutlich, dass Morejon sich als Zeitzeugin des historischen Geschehens versteht. Als Richtschnur wahlt sie die schwarze Hauptfarbe - mit dem Gedicht "Schwarze Frau" wurde sie 1975 bekannt. Das Poem »Im Oktober und der Wind« ist dem Monat der Sturme und Orkane in der Karibik gewidmet, als Kuba 1962 weltweit als Drehpunkt des Kalten Krieges wahrgenommen wurde. Diese "Schweinebucht-Krise" pragte nachhaltig Kubas politische und okonomische Situation. Auch heute erregt das Land in der Presse immer noch Aufmerksamkeit. Havanna ist eine Kultstadt, deren Fotos von Gebauden, Menschen und Straßen auf Pressefotos und in Dokumentarfilmen weit verbreitet sind.Diese Stadt steht Morejon in ihren Gedichten vor Augen. Sie ist 1944 dort geboren und hat als Afrokubanerin hautnah die Verwandlung der Stadt im Sozialismus erlebt, die die alltagliche Diskriminierung keinesfalls beendet hat. Im Sozialismus war eine offene Auseinandersetzung mit diesem Thema nicht erwunscht. Morejons Poesie ist jedoch davon gepragt. Diese Anthologie umfasst eine Auswahl von Gedichten, die zwischen 1967 und 2020 erschienen sind. Sie zeigt, wie sich anfanglicher Enthusiasmus und Hoffnung zu einem fast melancholisch anmutenden Gemutszustand gewandelt haben, die Verspieltheit ihrer Traumbilder und Metaphern jedoch erhalten geblieben ist. Das letzte Gedicht »Zwischen den Weiden« gedenkt dem Mord am George Floyd am 25. Mai 2020.Augen ist auch als Einstieg in die Gefuhlswelt der karibischen Kulturgeschichte zu verstehen, die hier in Dialog mit dem Alltagsleben in der kubanischen Hauptstadt Havanna in Einklang gebracht wird.
