Pisma Posejdonu
Letters to Poseidon, one of the most important living European writers, is a magnificent ode to the world in which we have lived, and in which we will live perhaps for just a moment.
Earthquake, lord of the sea, brother of Zeus... Is the immortal Poseidon still interested in us, is it still fun for him to deal with our lives? Every autumn, when he leaves the island where he spends the summer, Cees Nooteboom begs Poseidon for permission to return the following year. In the meantime, he will write letters to him: about the world and new maps of everyday life, about God and gods, about ancient myths and how we read and live them now.
The Mediterranean and other seas, but also sky, land, volcanoes... Nooteboom follows Poseidon through space and time, through the history of art and through his own history, writing an extremely personal book of unusual beauty and wisdom.
