More about the book
Drawing on a rich cultural heritage, the author weaves a fictionalized memoir that explores the lives of three deeply affected peoples. Influenced by Nietzsche and Kafka, he transforms ordinary moments, like sitting in a café, into profound reflections on life, philosophy, and cinema, shaped by his experiences as a filmmaker. The narrative delves into the concept of 'distraction' as an essential aspect of existence, blending humor, eroticism, and surrealism to create a compelling vision of daily life intertwined with art and history.
