Science fiction adventure predicting future after few centuries.

A man awakens in a mental hospital, accused of murdering his only child, but more uncertain is whether he committed the act as himself or as someone else. Can Richard Ratner uncover who really murdered his daughter and why? Who would want him framed and to suffer for the rest of his life?...

Being wheeled down a dreary, dilapidated hall, Rick Ratner’s head bobbed up and down onto his shoulder. He was half conscious but had no idea where or when he was. He had never seen this place before but soon felt himself being strapped to a chair in a dimly lit room. Outside, a tumultuous storm was brewing. Lightning could be seen through the windows of each room Rick passed. The thunder crashed like sonic booms. A tree banged hard against the building, creating a loud bang and then, a very eerie scratching sound that toyed with one’s ears and mind like a crazed madman playing with his prey before the kill. “Hello, Mr. Ratner. I’m Doctor Selis. Do you remember killing your daughter?” “Killing my daughter? What the hell are you talking about,” smirked Rick. “Your daughter, Nataly… She was brutally murdered, Mr. Ratner, by you,” retorted the doctor, as if Rick had been convicted already. Sitting in the stiff chair, unable to move from shock, and from heavy restraints, Rick could think of nothing else to say. Trying to process what he had just been told seemed like some impossible task had been set before him. ...

Am căutat să scriu o nuvelă fantastică, alegorică, prin care să evoc figura Sfânatului martir Constantin Vodă Brâncoveanul. Pesonajul care va aduce în prezent evenimentele din acea tulbure perioadă este G., un om obişnuit, dar totodată misterios, a cărui identintate rămane necunoscută: „Numele meu? Nu are nicio importanţă, continuă G. imperturbabil. Cine sunt? Exist în subconştientul fiecăruia. Cum de am atâta influenţă? Sunt mesagerul năzuinţelor de veacuri ale neamului românesc. Ele se găsesc adormite în adâncimile insondabile ale subconştientului colectiv, iar eu am fost chemat să le trezesc. De ce tocmai eu? Am fost iniţiat de rădăcinile duhovniceşti ale neamului. Iniţiala mea? Poate veni de la…“...

Γεννήθηκα στην Αθήνα το 1968. Σπούδασα Ιατρική στο Πανεπιστήμιο Αθηνών με μεγάλη λαχτάρα και την εξασκώ με την ίδια αγάπη μέχρι σήμερα. Με νύχια ακόμα απαλά άρχισα να ξύνω τη λογοτεχνία από όλες τις πλευρές της, διαβάζοντας και γράφοντας. Αργότερα, σε μια δύσκολη εποχή της ζωής μου, τη χρησιμοποίησα σαν δεκανίκι. Αποδείχτηκε πολύ γερό, αντέχοντας όλο μου το βάρος και βγάζοντάς με απέναντι. Την εποχή εκείνη άρχισα να γράφω το ιστολόγιο Liquid days, που μου έδωσε την ευκαιρία να πειραματιστώ στα μονοπάτια της γραφής και να γνωρίσω επιδέξιους εραστές του ποιητικού και πεζού λόγου. Τούτη η συλλογή διηγημάτων περιέχει απόπειρες γραφής από τα πρώτα εκείνα χρόνια του ιστολογίου μέχρι και σήμερα. Αφιερώνεται σε όλους τους φίλους, φυσικούς και διαδικτυακούς, που με ανέχτηκαν, με στήριξαν και με διάβασαν αυτά τα χρόνια. Μαρία Δριμή Καλοκαίρι 2012...

A Line-by-Line Commentary on Rilke’s Duino Elegies.

Glavni junak igrom slučaja biva upleten među loše momke, bivše ratne dobrovoljce, u koje je umešan i jedan otpadnik iz njihovih redova....
