Description
xIn his forgotten library in a city reduced to ruins by war, the old writer withdraws, tired of the death surrounding him. He takes refuge in life on its shelves to embark on a metanarrative adventure that awakens the heroes of timeless novels written in distant times and geographies. Then, the Italian Giovanni Drogo emerges from the "Tatar Desert" to enter the "divinity" of the old writer, sparking discussions about the absurdity of life with the hero of "The Old Man and the Sea," the Cuban fisherman Santiago. Lady Chatterley ensnares Cain in her net, arousing Zorba's jealousy, and the already intertwined events ensue.
It is a realistic, imaginative narrative game in which Jean Dost manipulates time, mimicking the present through the language of the past and the past through the language of the present, condensing the times of the novels whose heroes "The Playful" borrowed into a single time—the time of the story. As for the setting, it is a vivid cinematic scene that transports the reader to the heart of the event. With a smooth structure and profound meaning, Dost poses essential questions through his characters, about the earthiness of man versus the sophistication of the fictional character, about revenge, faith and belief, about authority and subservience, about doubt and certainty, in an enjoyable, aesthetic literary form that will leave the reader astonished after turning the last page.
