Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear.

“We forgot uncircumventable.”
“Uncircumventable? Definitely, it goes without say-ing. He’s a living example of how creatively one could write for someone who’s never stepped foot in a creative writing workshop or frequented any liter-ary circles.”
“That’s right. Like a footballer who learned how to play in the sandlots and back alleys.”
“You’ve read him, I see.”
“Not once, not twice…”
“Well, then?”
“All right, he’s not exactly rubbish. However, I do
Stop all this praising and heralding him as a genius. It’s starting to smack of North Korea.

have my reservations. He suffers from the familiar syndrome of the up-and-coming writer. He tries to say everything in the very first book, which, to some extent, becomes tiring. Just like his tendency to strip bare – he might as well be an actress in her debut – in front of the readers when they don’t even ask for that, like the director would ask of the actress.”
“Then again, personally it reminds me of the local neighbourhood tavern owner whose portions are far too generous for their cost, so much so that there’s always something left over in the plate and, lest it go to waste, I ask him to put it in a little take-away box.
