Романът Объркани в свободата се състои от два сюжетни и мисловни потока. Едната сюжетна линия се развива в съвременността и разказва за насилието и несвободата, предизвикани от пандемията , която ни отне различието и ни потопи в нереалното виртуално съществуване. Втората сюжетна линия ни пренася в Средновековието и засяга темата за исихазма - едно удивително духовно учение в търсене на единение с Бог. Привидно тези две сюжетни линии изглеждат несъвместими. Това, което ги обединява в романа, е проблемът за свободата, за величието на човешката свобода, която до голяма степен осмисля живота ни."Аз наистина вярвам, най- ... |
