A train traveling with a single passenger is forced to stop for an entire hour, so the traveler leaves it and walks to waste time, but the paths lead him to a coal mine, then to a gypsy wedding, and finally to a place where five wolves were trapped, to carry out a plan targeting the village and its residents.
In an interesting plot, this novel pulls you in and carries you away without leaving you any chance to escape, as you follow the trail of this mysterious strange man and wonder: Who is he? A saint who came to save the village and its residents? Or just a mentally ill man running away with his madness? Or a philosopher? Or all of these together?
With linguistic and psychological intensity, Elena Alexeeva writes a novel that stands on the border between dystopia, magical realism, and absurdity, drawing inspiration from all of them without drowning in any of them. Therefore, in the year following its publication, it deserved the 2019 Novel of the Year Award and the National Book Center’s Feather Award.
Reader's eye. Eye of the critic. Painter's eye. Photographer's eye. Artist's eye. Journalist's eye. Many other eyes have become part of the dictionary of terms used in this era, and it happens that a person tells himself or others to read a specific text with the eyes of the reader, not the critic, or vice versa.
How many eyes do we have?
Is the eye the first key to receiving, understanding and interpretation? Or is it just an intermediary?
There is no doubt that the interpretation of texts cannot take place without reading them (hearing is a form of reading), and that a text that is not read or heard cannot be interpreted. Therefore, these parties overlap so much that it is impossible to do without one over the other.
