Description

I heard you say wise words: “The Creator does not return anyone to whom He snatches into His embrace. Each lover has a corresponding sacrifice. One day, you will all find yourselves inside a whale. Without poverty, you learn not what you are worth. The nature of man is base. Debt is a whale that writhes within the soul [...] The soul of man needs the fake. Every reader is a whale that has been hooked.”

In the depths of the sea, the monsters meet: The Whale, Witness, Sacrifice, The Sacrifice of Love, Teaching, Dissipation, Interlude, Manual, Debt, Cliché, Soul, Fake, Demon, and Bone, presenting the role each has played in the History of the World. The Bone speaks last. It can be seen by anyone today. It is displayed at the Museum of the Ancient Agora in Athens. Through its display case, it emits a truth that none of the other monsters possess.

The Monsters, a vertebrate poetic composition with intertextuality and humor, satirize the teaching of literature and didactic literature. They recall medieval epics or Tarantino films at times, Melville, the Old Testament, the Odyssey, or the Adventures of Pinocchio at other times, and at yet other times Voltaire, Plutarch, Baron Munchausen, or the testimonies of the anarchist group Baader-Meinhof – and ultimately, they speak of the grim whale of human destiny.
