Have you ever thought about what fiction is? Probably, such a question may seem surprising: and so everything is clear. Every person throughout his life has to repeatedly create the works he needs for specific purposes - statements, autobiographies, dictations - using not gypsum or clay, not musical notes, not paints, but just a word. At the same time, almost every person will be very surprised if he is told that he thereby created a work of fiction, which is very different from visual art, music and sculpture making. However, everyone understands that a student's essay or dictation is fundamentally different from novels, short stories, news that are created by professional writers. In the works of professionals there is the most important difference - excogitation. But, oddly enough, in a school literature course, you don’t realize the full power of fiction.

ti-terrorism hounds and terrorists, men of the under-world, citizens of the world, Ibsen’s triangles, vicious cycles, cancers, benign or malignant, paralysing dis-eases, mental illnesses, suicide, self-abuse, vigilan-tism, court trials, road accidents, air tragedies, etc.
The proscription of every description.
The transcription of the indescribable and the narra-tion of the inenarrable.
Not only due to his unproductiveness in the particu-lar domain but also out of choice, even though a novel without a plot was like a garlic dip without garlic, the disengagement from the nightmare of the plot. Except, that is, the one that hid in each of his phrases and words.
The demotion of any suspense, therefore, to a poor re-lation that would simply appear in homeopathic doses.
An overdose, on the other hand, of metaphors, simi-les and analogies. He had, in the process, developed, much like a bodybuilder does his biceps, the pertinent parts of his brain responsible for their mass produc-tion. As a result, once he happened to think of any, it would be impossible not to hitch them to the text. Some, however, were missing their better half.

they’d be left on the shelf forever. It’d be a shame, wouldn’t it? The Potemkin villages, the Swiss Army knife, the blind spot, the canary in the coal mine, the Rosetta stone, the Luddites, the black box with the recordings of the pilots’ conversations, a no-show, the business class, the full economy, the economies of scale, the black holes, the Ozone hole, the reheat-ed mash, the backpedalling, the sparring partner, a punching bag, the good and the bad cop, the bad bank, the Copernican Revolution, the 9th of Thermidor25, the 18th Brumaire26; these were but some of them.
Contractual requirements (regardless of the fact that he might not uphold all of them – we were in Greece, after all – to the fullest extent)?
Not a word about the crisis, a superhumanly difficult and inhumanely disadvantageous thing to do, but deep down also a convenient one since whatever was to be said had been written, and whatever had been written had been read.
