Burning Skies: A Novella

Burning Skies is a seventy-page novella completed as an Honors Thesis in Creative Writing. The story is set in Los Angeles, California, during the 1992 riots surrounding the controversy over the beating of Rodney King by four white police officers. The story is toldthrough the perspectives of the four main characters: Erin, a woman who is four months pregnant with a baby she desperately wants; her husband David, who has moved the couple out to California so that he can pursue his dream of being a cinematographer; Abby, David’s deeplyreligious younger sister who has unexpectedly flown out to Los Angeles from her home in Indiana after discovering her husband’s infidelity; and Cameron, a black man training to be a pastor who Abby has befriended through her years of missionary work in Los Angeles.The novella follows the events of the riots as they break out all across the city and the personal dramas of each of the four main characters, looking at how the public interacts with theprivate and examining the ways in which explosions in the public and political sphere can ricochet into our private and personal lives. It is a story about the political and racial climate in Los Angeles in the early 1990s, but it is also a story about four human beings, about their needs and their desires, about their struggles to survive in an unpredictable world. The novella showcases the skills and techniques the author has learned after four years of studying fiction at Bucknell University; it can best be described as a work of realistic fiction.

El present estudi ofereix una anàlisi de la recepció crítica de l’obra Crim de Germania, de l’escriptor valencià Josep Lozano, publicada per primera vegada a l’abril de 1980 per l’editorial Tres i Quatre, que permet fixar els elements a l’entorn dels quals s’ha anat elaborant la lectura de la novel·la i la seua evolució temporal. Durant més de trenta anys, Crim de Germania ha sigut objecte de nombroses valoracions crítiques a la premsa i en publicacions periòdiques de diversa índole a tot arreu dels territoris de parla catalana. L’estudi s’ha dividit en tres etapes: la primera s’inicia amb la publicació del llibre i conclou l’any 1981; la segona comprén el período des de 1982 fins al 2004, i, la tercera, des de 2005 —any en què la novel·la s’amplia i es reedita per Bromera— fins l’actualitat.
