„Kąsniukai“ – basomis pristatyta knyga

pagal | 12 birželio, 2024

Š. m. birželio 8 d. Kauno technologijos universiteto (KTU) 3 rūmuose, Laisvės alėja 13, Mažojoje salėje buvo pristatyta 2023 m. išleista rinktinė  „Kąsniukai”.  Renginį koordinavo Ingrida Zeleniakienė. Trumpų pertraukėlių metu, salę užliejant saksofonisto Armundo Jonaičio  muzikai,  svečiai vaišinosi vieno kąsnio užkandėlėmis – kąsniukais, kurie nuotrupoje (gal akimirkoje?) leidžia pajusti netikėtų skonių (gyvenimo?) harmoniją.

Antroje renginio dalyje rinktinę „Kąsniukai“ autorė pristatė basomis.

Apie knygos pristatymą, kūrybinius užmojus (ir ne tik) kalbamės su knygos autore,  kasmetine „JAV lietuvių poezijos pavasaris” (PoPaJAV, prezidentė ir renginio organizatorė poetė Sandra Avižienytė) dalyve bei viena iš autorių, pristatytų 2024 m. nominacijai,  Vilmantija Petruškevičiūte McCarthy.

Prašau pasidalyti su skaitytojais, kokiomis nuotaikomis gyvenate grįžusi iš savo knygos pristatymo Lietuvoje? Kuo jis buvo ypatingas?

Tebegyvenu susitikimo su savo skaitytojais džiaugsmu. Man šis renginys buvo ypatingas savo struktūra – dviejų dalių pristatymas tarsi apjungė abu mano gyvenimo krantus. Pirmoje dalyje, tarsi bandydama atitikti kitų lūkesčius, ištraukas iš naujai išleistos ir jau rengiamos knygos  skaičiau pasidabinusi puošnia, blizgiais aksesuarais suknele. Prisistačiau kaip poetė ir rašytoja iš nepakartojamo vėjų miesto – Čikagos, kuriame gyvenu jau per 20 metų. Antroje renginio dalyje į salę išėjau basomis kojomis. Tokią mane prisimena man artimi žmonės: „Atsimeni, aš ta mergaitė iš žolės –/Oda šilkinė ir plaukai šiaudiniai./Aš ta, kur veidą atsukau prieš vėją./Kai tarė man skaudžius žodžius likimas” („Mergaitė iš žolės“).

Rinktinės „Kąsniukai” autorė Vilmantija Petruškevičiūtė McCarthy.

Rinktinė „Kąsniukai“ („Bites“) šleista lietuvių ir anglų kalbomis – tereikia apversti knygą priešinga puse, kad galėtum ją skaityti anglų kalba. Taigi mano skaitytojai yra ir tie lietuviai, kuriems jau per sunku skaityt gimtąja kalba, ir amerikiečiai.

Kokie Jūsų kūrybiniai planai ateityje?

Šiuo metu ant mano darbo stalo išdėliotuose rankraščiuose eilėraščiai ir trumpi apsakymai, kurie suguls į naujai rengiamą knygą pavadinimu „Aitvarai“. Ši knyga apie tai, ką reikėtų paleisti  – jausmus, netektis, žmones. Arba skaudžias patirtis, kartais sukeliančias mintis apie savižudybę. Manau, tai labai aktualu. Su tokiais žmonėmis aš dirbu.

Kokį  darbą dirbate Jungtinėse Amerikos Valstijose?

23 metus dirbu Čikagoje, North Western ligoninės Onkologijos skyriuje. Mano pacientai – kartais mėnesius ar dienas skaičiuojantys žmonės, kuriuos aš labai myliu. Jie išugdė mane kaip asmenybę ir kūrėją, suformavo mano vertybių sampratą. Esu laiminga, kai galiu jiems padėti, tačiau kartais, pavarčius jų ligų istorijas, apima neviltis, kuomet supranti, kad esi bejėgė. Tuomet  prisilaužau savo kieme išbujojusios krūminės ląstūnės, dar vadinamos gyvybės ir vilties medžiu, apdžiuvusių šakų, žinodama, kad sumedėję stiebai yra ištvermingi ir labai gyvybingi, nešu į ligoninę ir daliju ten besigydantiems žmonėms. Šios šakos nudžiuvusios, sakau jiems, bet tu pamėgink, tereikia jas pamerkti į vandenį prieš sodinant, ir jeigu tavo rankomis sodintas augalas prigis – bus ženklas, kad pasveiksi. Sunku apsakyti tą nenusakomą džiaugsmą, kai žmonės ateina pas tave pasidalyti įvykusiu stebuklu – sudžiuvęs stiebas prigijo, sužaliavo ir gausiai apsipylė žiedais, primenančiais į dangų nukreiptus trimitus. Būtent dėl to šios augalų šeimos žiedai dažnai vadinami angelo trimitais (Angel trumpet) ir tikima, kad grojančių angelų garsams atsiliepia dangus.

Dalies šių žmonių jau nebėra, bet jų artimieji iki šiol su manimi dalijasi prisiminimais, kiek vilties suteikė išsikerojusi ląstūnė ir kaip tikėjimas praskaidrino jų gyvenimus. Tokiomis akimirkomis suvoki, kad eini teisingu keliu. Ir tai atperka viską – stiprina ir suteikia jėgų nepasiduoti.  Kaip ir vieno iš pacientų atviras pasakojimas, kaip skaitydamas noveles iš pirmos, 2017 m. išleistos, mano knygos „Visa tai įvyko vakar“ pamiršo savo ligą.

Ši patirtis formavo mano gyvenimo prasmės suvokimą, ja ženklinta ir mano kūryba.

Ačiū už pokalbį.

    We evaluated the consolation stage of each
    shoe by considering the cushioning, arch support, and total fit.
    Testers performed quite so much of weightlifting exercises, together with squats, deadlifts, and Olympic lifts, to evaluate how the
    sneakers felt during totally different movements. Adidas has been making some really nice heavy-lifting
    sneakers that do not garner the identical
    hype as a variety of the brand’s lifestyle footwear. However if
    you’re Olympic lifting, powerlifting, or just being an enormous barbell boy,
    do not sleep on these.
    This makes it straightforward to transition on and off your bike, whether or not diving
    into Peloton exercises at residence or powering by way of a
    circuit exercise at the fitness center. This shoe is fairly gentle, particularly considering its
    deep lugs on the outsole, which offer glorious traction (since
    it’s a path operating shoe). A breathable mesh higher and tons of colorways to select
    from make this a simple sneaker to add to
    your weekly rotation. Firm and flexible, the shoe is breathable and has a wide platform for improved stability and support.
    Whether Or Not you take pleasure in weightlifting, logging miles on the
    treadmill, or attending Zumba lessons, having the best shoe is key
    to maintaining your toes snug and your physique secure. The Altra HIIT XT 2 has a durable rubber sole, ensuring longevity and grip.
    Its mesh upper offers breathability, whereas the EVA midsole delivers
    responsive cushioning.
    So, as much as we love an excellent working shoe, it’s better to have a dedicated health club shoe in your workouts (and lace up your
    runners if you hop on the treadmill). Finally,
    don’t overlook about your personal preferences, Sarah Pope,
    CPT, a private coach at Life Time Clarendon in Arlington, Virginia, tells SELF.
    Do you need your shoes to feel especially breathable, or roomy by way of the toe box?
    Ought To they be considerably stylish, in case you put on them outside
    of the gym? Dr. Ung recommends trying a few completely
    different pairs on to get a feel for what’s really comfy for you—and
    what’s going to get you even more excited to hit the health club.
    The leather upper isn’t as breathable as a typical athletic shoe, however you’re not logging miles in these anyway, so it’s not a
    big deal. Plus, with two foot straps on each shoe, you get a
    locked-in fit that reduces any chance of slipping when you’re underneath load.

    A rigid, stabilizing plate contained in the shoe
    feels sturdy underfoot, whereas a layer of soft foam in the midsole
    buoys your toes whenever you pick up the tempo.
    And rubber panels along the perimeters of the shoe increase
    its traction to make climbs easier. The Forbes Vetted team researches, exams and critiques tens if not lots of of shoes yearly, from work boots to running shoes to mountaineering
    sandals.
    CrossFit entails plenty of running, leaping, climbing, and other actions that require agility and adaptability,
    which is the alternative of what weightlifting sneakers do.
    So, if you’d like the core traits of a squat shoe and don’t wish to spend the
    cash for premium weightlifting footwear, the Powerlift is a wonderful possibility.
    To accommodate more width in the toe box, the entrance of the
    shoe could be very sq.. Which can truly contribute to a wider base, and in turn, more stability.

    I often have issues with narrow toe boxes and love my Romaleo 2s.
    Concerning sizing, the sneakers run true to measurement
    and fit equally to prior Romaleo models. Nevertheless, they are somewhat thinner within the toe field than the Romaleo 2, formerly considered the greatest shoe
    for extensive ft. They have a large toe field that’s supported by a
    heavy leather-based development. But it additionally has the
    bar out of the foot’s middle, which requires heeled footwear
    to right.
    Not solely is this pair reasonably priced, but „the heel is less prominent, so you have to use these footwear for extra than just squats,“ MacPherson says.

    They a grippy sole to maintain you planted throughout squats,
    deadlifts, lunges, and extra. At first, the thought of
    a shoe bending within the center appears to run counter to
    every thing we’d like from a weightlifting shoe – inflexibility, stability, and rigidity.

    This assist also helps to enhance lifting posture, which is essential for stopping
    injuries and maximizing performance. Despite the absence
    of a raised heel, Metcon 9 shines in weightlifting. We measured a 5.5 mm drop in the lab, extra leveled than the 6.1 mm common.
    The upper features at least 50% recycled content material, making it a more sustainable alternative for athletes who’re involved
    about the impact of their purchases on the surroundings.
    This product represents simply considered one of adidas’ options to assist end plastic
    waste. In addition to their sensible features, the Core Weightlifting
    Sneakers additionally boast a surprising Nordic design. The black shade, clean strains, and minimalist type give these sneakers a
    novel charm that stands out in any gym. The weight of Crossfit sneakers ranges from 10 oz (285g)
    to 13.5 oz (385g), which is on the heavier aspect of cross-training footwear.

    They have a hard supporting midsole, identical to any
    other squat shoe. However the distinction lies within the structure, making them one of the best squat
    shoe for flat feet. It’s more breathable than the leather on the primary model (even although it was perforated), so
    your toes won’t get as sweaty throughout your squat workouts.
    It’s additionally extra pliable and presents extra flexibility in your foot to maneuver but remains to be supportive enough that your foot won’t slide
    around inside the shoe. The perfect footwear for common coaching in the fitness center ought to supply breathability and light help.
    These features permit for higher grip on the floor, promoting stability throughout various power and conditioning workouts.

    Moreover, these versatile sneakers are suitable
    for a broad range of gym activities.
    Regardless Of being over a decade old, Reebok continues
    to refine the design, preserving it as light-weight (around 10 ounces
    per shoe), breathable and grippy as its newer cross-training counterparts.
    Effective workout sneakers aren’t just snug and durable—they assist you to
    transfer higher, train harder and get well faster.

    I took a more in-depth have a look at a few of the best-selling athletic footwear and surveyed
    Forbes Vetted staffers to round up an assortment of the best men’s workout footwear that
    meet totally different needs.
