ان الانسان النوراني الذي استنار بالحكمة يدعونا لإلقاء الهموم في جيوبنا المثقوبة وان لا نلتقط الا فرص الحب من بين ركام هذا العالم ونواصل العزف في القيثارة ولو كانت مسكورة. ان حكايته واسراره تغمر روحنا بالسلام وتلهمنا للحفاظ على الانسان الكامن بداخلنا في عالم مضطرب.
Some of them call it (the service of knowledge), and some of them call it (the compulsory service), but the truest name for it is the name given to it by the public: (compulsory). Compulsory, no matter how much they cover it with national cellophane, will remain one of the heaviest experiences that a person goes through. He will live a long time and die, and the heavy feeling that there is a gun on his shoulder will never disappear.
نحن أمام سيرة ملهمة.. قصص حقيقية غيَّرت مصاير، وشاركت في نشر ديانات وعقائد.. سِيَر غيّرت شكل الأرض التي نحياها.. قصص سيدات أقمن بيوتًا، وحاربن من أجل أهداف، ودافعن عن فكرة، وأخلصن فظلت حكاياتهن تُروى على مرّ الأزمان.. نحن أمام تفاصيل وبحث تاريخي عميق ومختلف
Rabbits emerge from jacket sleeves, a car fixes a shed instead of a pole, and medical cotton speaks and makes sounds; These are some of the daily observations mixed with audio-visual hallucinations, narrated by a young drug addict, through a group of separate, connected short stories that describe the image of a world in which wakefulness and sleep are mixed, and reality and imagination.
In these stories, everything moves slowly, and the world is seen through a blur; As for death, it seems like a joke, even the feelings become numb; So that one laughs when one should cry.
Without lacking a sense of humor and bitter banter, Dennis Johnson presents in this collection an honest testimony about the lives of young addicts in the United States of America, and despite all the laughter and smiles generated by the book’s funny characters with their jokes and behavior, perhaps the reader will wonder at the end: Why does he feel this way? All sadness? It is a book written in the mouth of addicts, not about them, and describes their alienation and their connection with the world that is gradually fading.
