Ovacije Pištalu na promociji američkog izdanja romana

Roman Vladimira Pištala "Tesla, portret među maskama" koji je u Srbiji već šest godina jedna od najprodavanijih knjiga, imao je izuzetno uspešnu promociju američkog izdanja romana.

Nakon NIN-ove nagrade, Nagrade Narodne biblioteke Srbije za najčitaniju knjigu, nakon što je ušla u čitanke za osnovnu školu i gimnaziju, objavljena sa uspehom u svim bivšim jugoslovenskim republikama, objavljeno je američko izdanje kao 11. prevod na neki od stranih jezika.

Engleski prevod Pištalovog romana "Tesla, portret među maskama" ("Tesla, A Portrait With Masks") uradili su Bogdan Rakić i Džon Džefris a knjigu je objavio Graywold Preš, jedan od najpoznatijih američkih izdavača, pre mesec dana a knjiga je već zapazena po izuzetno pozitivnim kritikama.

Rečima "Pistalo je moderni klasik." američki pesnik srpskog porekla Čarls Simić je propratio izlazak romana "Tesla, portret među maskama" na engleskom jeziku.

Američka promocija knjige "Tesla, portret među maskama" u izdanju Graywold Preš održana je pre dva dana u knjižari "Brukljajn Boksmit". Pištalo je predstavio svoju knjigu u prepunoj kultnoj knjižari iako je te večeri bostonska temperatura bila najniža od 1895. godine, saopštila je Pres služba srpskog izdavača Agore.

Pištalo je izrazio zahvalnost što američku turneju počinje u gradu u kom je svoje poslednje godine proveo veliki americki pisac Sol Belou, i za koji je lično vezan. Publika je srdačno pozdravila roman koji je već dobio i nekoliko izvrsnih kritika u američkoj štampi.

Posle Bostona, Pištalo će predstaviti roman i u knjižari na Porter Skveru u Kembdridzu, na Čikaškom univerzitetu u Čikagu, na Kolumbija univerzitetu u Njujorku, na Univerzitetu u Nju Hempsiru, u Vusteru Masačusets i u srpskoj ambasadi u Vašingtonu.

Stella Jatras

Stella Louis Jatras

Stella Louis Jatras (nee Katsetos) from Camp Hill, PA, was born in Poughkeepsie, New York, as the fourth and youngest daughter of Louis (Leonidas) and Marina Katsetos, originally of Sparta, Greece, and later of Harrisburg and Carlisle.

Stella was quite literally a daughter of Sparta - and her father's name was Leonidas, no less. As Julia Gorin noted, she was Sparta, truly worthy of that heroic heritage. Axia!

In addition to the U.S. Department of State, her professional work included service with the U.S. Department of Defense, NASA and the Veterans Administration.

In 1953, she married George Jatras, also the offspring of Greek immigrant parents, and began a long and varied life as the wife of a career U.S. Air Force Officer.

As a career military officer's wife, Stella traveled widely and lived in several foreign countries where she not only learned about other cultures but became very knowledgeable regarding world affairs and world politics. She lived in Moscow for two years, where she worked in the Political Section of the U.S. Embassy. She also lived in Germany, Greece, and Saudi Arabia. Her travels took her to over twenty countries.
