В разказите от първата част читателят наблюдава героите сякаш зад дебелото стъкло на аквариум, а жестовете и гласовете им носят част от статичната енергия на ребусите на Светослав Минков . Във втората част светът става цветен, а наместо театър на сенките срещаме истинските актьори. Емануил А. Видински е честен в писането си. И това е истинското основание да се прочете тази книга – за да се види как авторът разбива ... |
