Omg I'm listening to, as usual, Cha Cha Cha

And I suddenly realized that I fully understand "Kun mä kaadan päälleni samppanjaa''

Like, gramatically, and the vocabulary

It's not a very complex sentence but tbh I could cry

Finnish is quite complex to learn, so I feel like I'm not making progress sometimes. When I start to understand, the serotonin boost is unreal

[makarov-ask-blog]

Nyt lähden tanssimaan

Niinku cha cha cha

Enkä pelkääkään tätä maailmaa

Niinku cha cha cha

Kun mä kaadan päälleni samppanjaa

(honestly this year i wasn't going to listen to the songs or watch the semifinals either because ebu being ebu but yea. Sweden and Albania this year are my personal favourites)

My brain all these months later:

6am- Rankka viikko ja paljon pitkii päiviä takan

9am- Mielenkiintona piña colada ja rata

12pm- Muutama piña colada on jo takana. Silti mul on vielä naamataulu vakava

4pm- Pidän kaksin käsin kiinni juomista niinku cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, ei

7pm- Nyt lähden tanssimaan niinku cha cha cha enkä pelkääkään tätä maailmaa. Niinku cha cha cha. Kun mä kaadan päälleni samppanjaa

9pm- Haluun olla sekasin ja vapaa huolista niinku cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, ei

12am- Cha, cha, cha, toinen silmä jo karsastaa

3am- Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha. Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha

30 gifts for 30 days of November

Day 4!

Here is the fourth of thirty Better Than a Poke in the Eye recommended gifts for the book lover in your life even if that book lover is YOU!

Day four's recommendation is What You Need to Be Warm by Neil Gaiman

I don't think we need to push why this is in our list, read the official synopsis below.

Sometimes it only takes a stranger in a dark place... to say we have the right to be here, to make us warm in the coldest season.

In 2019, Neil Gaiman asked his Twitter followers: What reminds you of warmth? Over 1,000 responses later, Neil began to weave replies from across the world into a poem in aid of the UNHCR's winter appeal. It revealed our shared desire to feel safe, welcome and warm in a world that can often feel frightening and lonely.

Published in hardback and illustrated by a group of artists from around the world, What You Need to Be Warm is an exploration of displacement and flight from conflict through the objects and memories that represent warmth. It is about our right to feel safe, whoever we are and wherever we are from. It is about holding out a hand to welcome those who find themselves far from home.

Featuring new, original illustrations from Chris Riddell, Benji Davies, Yuliya Gwilym, Nadine Kaadan, Daniel Egnéus, Pam Smy, Petr Horácek, Beth Suzanna, Bagram Ibatoulline, Marie-Alice Harel, Majid Adin and Richard Jones, with a thought-provoking cover from Oliver Jeffers. Sales of every copy of this book will help support the work of UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, which helps forcibly displaced communities and stateless people across the world.

kaadan maitoa mun kahviin ihan normaali(??) tavalla

sisko: toi oli vaikuttava!

minä: no olin barista

sisko: kaadoit sitä kuppiin niin korkealta

minä: ...no olin barista?

sisko: mä oisin kaatanut vähän alemmalta

minä: no.

film Nezouh by Soudade Kaadan

[runo-sielu]

minä asun sinun varjosi talossa

pesen joka aamu kahvikupin kummitukselle

kaadan tulikuumaa juomaa sormilleni enkä

enää odotakaan muuta

minä maalaan seinät varjosi taloon

pyyhin pölyt otsaltasi

en pysähdy, olen jo tässä kun tarvitset minua enkä

enää osaisikaan muuta

minä olen kiinni kattosi hämähäkinseitissä enkä

enää olekaan muuta

kuin se, jota täytyy tarvita

Summary

What do you need to stay warm? Everyone has their own definition of what it means to be warm, including the means of staying so. In the wake of civil unrest and tragedy around the world, Neil Gaiman provides a poem of welcome, which has been illustrated to show the different facets of humanity in moments of vulnerability. 

Justification

This book was chosen because it fulfills the category “Poetry or Novel in Verse.” What You Need To Be Warm is a book featuring a single poem that is divided into twelve stanzas, which is written in free verse. Although it hasn’t received any awards, it does have glowing reviews from multiple literary review publications, such as Publishers Weekly,  Booklist, and School Library Journal. There are also many notable illustrators, including those with less notoriety, that collaborated with Gaiman on this book, which showcases a variety of art styles. Most importantly, this book was created to benefit the UNHCR, or UN Refugee Agency, which is dedicated to saving lives, protecting rights, and building a better future for people affected by conflict and persecution. 

Evaluation

For this review, I will be evaluating illustrations, theme, and mood.

Illustrations

What You Need To Be Warm is an incredibly emotional picture book that captures the essence of belonging in the midst of tragedy. In that sense of belonging, it also incorporates different aspects of warmth, such as body heat, warm food and beverages, fur, and textiles. In order to capture the feeling of warmth, including turmoil and loss, the illustrations gravitate towards a selection of colors that are representative of this. The only colors used in these illustrations are black, grey, white, and orange.The monochromatic scale ranging from black to white creates a sense of emptiness while the bright orange illuminates the pages and draws attention to the objects of warmth in question.The illustrations themselves also vary from artist to artist, which captures desires of a more simple time versus the current, more bleak reality. 

Theme

Although this picture book addresses multiple societal issues in its visuals, the stanzas of the poem itself go on to discuss what it means to be warm and what it means to belong. These ideas are expressed both through the text and in the illustrations, which both mention and show family members, friends, and communities. Outside of the poem, the thirteen illustrators that contributed towards the visuals in the book provide their own interpretations of the stanzas that they were assigned, which provide a diverse range of understanding and recognition of these concepts.

Mood

The mood of What You Need To Stay Warm can be challenging to articulate, because it attempts to create balance between tragedy and hope. What sticks out the most is its sense of nostalgia, which yearns for when we were warm and the lives we lived previously. In one way, the mood is melancholic because of how it approaches subjects like war and displacement. In another, the mood is hopeful because of how it addresses goodwill and kindness amongst strangers. It is also incredibly sobering. These moods are dictated by illustration and the poem itself, which has been interpreted by so many different people.

Hello Mr. Gaiman, I was wondering if you might have any information about the possibility of obtaining the "What We Need to Be Warm" book internationally (outside of the UK and USA) as I am currently in Mexico and would love to purchase it. I attempted to contact Bloomsbury Publishing to inquire about this, but I haven’t received a response yet and it is currently unavailable on Amazon.

Thank you very much! Have a beautiful day :)

It isn't published in the US until October 30th. But it's definitely on Amazon USA, at
