Elsa Korneti

A Bouquet of Fish Bones

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The unhappy narcissist is threatened by the loss of beauty. The sophisticate takes reward from the geometry of desires. The eccentric form defective passions. The restless spirit seeks out a series of liberating falls. The daydreamer is charmed by planetary coincidences. The womanizer falls victim to fatal attractions. The loner finds amusement feeding his inflated imagination with scenes of mystery. The awareness of mortality leads them to the expression of passions, and mistakes. The carousels of all these people's little panics perpetually rotate, each circle closes for another to open and the tyranny of existence continues to be summed up in the agonizing question: the eternality of the temporary or the temporary eternity? Against a background of the universe's vast mirror, to what extent can the instantaneous, the insignificant and the random leave any trace on time's relentless flow, giving another dimension to eternality?
