Description

In some ways this book is like a diary, in other ways like travel notes. Sometimes it passes itself off as a collection of poems and aphorisms, and sometimes as a collection of very short essays. “Paper Golem” is a collection of laconic and expressive, angry and provocative, melancholic and critical texts by Alhierd Bacharevič written in exile. What has repeatedly sounded from the stages of different cities, in different languages, in interviews with Western media and in conversations with foreign readers. What the author is rarely asked about in Belarusian.

Writer Bacharevič – about history and literature, creativity and language, about fate and exile, pain and love. About what I learned and what I understood. About myself and others. About our time, about our Belarus, about the West and the East, about the new and the old world.

The most sincere book by Algerd Baharevich.
