一趟穿越城市的採買之旅,悄悄成了一段回望記憶的旅程。
十一歲的 Benji 與外婆 Bubbe Rosa 正為週五晚餐採買食材。對 Bubbe 來說,這座城市早已不是記憶中的模樣——熟悉的街景變了,店家消失了,人們也不同了。她對這座城市懷抱著複雜的情緒:既懷念、又疏離,甚至帶著一絲憤怒。
然而,Benji 以孩子特有的清明與包容,看待這個世界,也看待外婆。他不急著反駁、不急著糾正,只是陪伴著。隨著兩人穿梭於街道與市場之間,我們逐漸拼湊出 Bubbe 年輕時的生活與愛戀,也慢慢理解那份藏在倔強與嘮叨外表下的柔軟靈魂。
《Alte Zachen》是一則看似簡單卻情感深刻的故事,細膩描繪猶太文化認同、世代差異,以及差異之間其實可以跨越的距離。城市如同活著的角色,在流動與改變之中,承載著記憶,也映照著人心。
A trip through the city turns into a trip down memory lane, as an old Jewish woman and her grandson shop for ingredients for a Friday night meal.
11-year-old Benji, and his grandma, Bubbe Rosa, are shopping for the ingredients for Friday night dinner. Bubbe’s relationship with the city is complex – nothing is quite as she remembered it and she feels alienated and angry at the world around her. Benji, on the other hand, looks at the world, and his grandmother, with clear-eyed acceptance. As they wander the city, we catch glimpses of Bubbe’s life and loves, piecing together the history to gain an insight into the tender soul that lies behind the cantankerous exterior.
Alte Zachen is a powerful, affecting and deceptively simple story of Jewish identity, of generational divides, of the surmountability of difference and of a restless city and its inhabitants. This critically acclaimed title was shortlisted for the Carnegie Awards, 2023, and won the V&A award for Best Children’s Book Illustration, 2024. "
