Aprašymas
Festival in Therma is an amazing collection of stories with accomplished writing skills. In the first part of the collection we follow the author’s physical and psychological journey in seeking his origin: a quest resulted from grief for his mother. We travel between Ikaria, an island in Greece with a mythical origin, and Cleveland, an industrial city in the U.S. with recent past. The author, with his masterful story-telling skills and lyrical composition, presents us contrasting images of modern life and primitive civilization; juxtapositions of the dead and the living; and of present and past.
It is impossible not to feel the passion and longing of the narrator in his eloquent prose redolent of a Greek epic poem. And just as we too have been immersed in the aged water of Greece and mesmerized by the rhythms of pagan dances, the curtain closes. When it opens again, we see a different setting: no more stone houses, goats and island villages, but coffee houses, bars, and gardens. In America now, and seeing it through Americans' favorite: comedies. In succinct dialogues and with a humorous tone, the stories in part two portray casual encounters but they’re thought-provoking. They reflect the writer’s keen observations about human behavior and his amusing exploration of human psychology.
