De bananengeneratie: over het dubbelleven van Chinese Nederlanders van nu

Pete Wu is een banaan. Althans, zo noemt zijn moeder hem liefkozend: ‘geel van buiten en wit vanbinnen’. Hij is een tweede generatie Chinese Nederlander, die midden in de Nederlandse samenleving staat. Toch wordt Pete ongewild herinnerd aan zijn anders-zijn. Door mensen die hem vragen waar hij nou écht vandaan komt. Of anders wel door de gemiddelde carnavalshit, Meneer Cheung uit Ik hou van Holland, of Gordon: ‘Wat ga je zingen? Nummer 39 met rijst?’ In De bananengeneratie gaat Pete in gesprek met ‘mede bananen’ die net als hij worstelen met hun Chinese Nederlanderschap. Hij praat met hen over generatieclashes, daten, discriminatie en eenzaamheid. En over het gevecht om jezelf te mogen zijn – bevrijd van clichés.

Narušení děje

Literatura a život mají společného jmenovatele: příběh. Píšou se sedmdesátá léta a William „Mole Man“ Lyttle vykope v tunelu pod svým domem větu, která nezvratně ovlivní chod světa. „Naše životy už nám nepřipadají jako příběhy.“ Protagonistkou autofikčního románu je třiatřicetiletá Emma, která se snaží porozumět svým českým kořenům, vyrovnat se se smrtí matky a najít odpovědi na otázky okolo zmizení své partnerky. Historie okolo ní neplyne, naopak se hromadí a tříští. Mezi pozůstatky se katastroficky zvedá vodní hladina a sílí požáry. Emma se jimi prodírá ve snaze poodejít od lásky, ve které se vítězí a prohrává. V jejím vyprávění docházíme na konec společně či každý po svém, příběh zůstává. Stejně jako otázka, zda vyprávění může člověku pomoci vyrovnat se s tragickými událostmi.
