Woman in brackets

The story of a woman who believes that the whole world is happening only in her head, and the story of a man who tries to escape this labyrinth. For him, Ariadne' s thread is his own love story, but he may not avoid more brutal methods. But is it possible to accept a form of love that allows one life to come into being while another is to be ended? Němc' s novel is woven from dozens of stories: some are invented by a crazy writer, others are inserted into computer games by her admirer. But the main story is the story of a young woman and her lover, who are still hoping for the most important story of our lives. However, prose is not a postmodern game in which alternative lines and false identities play a role. It touches too sensitive places in most of our being for that. " Between the dusty rhinoceros horn and the golden unicorn horn, there is a taut string on which I strum my love romances. the tightrope above Macochau, along which I balance towards you, " writes writer Barbora in her memoirs. And while her son trembles high on that rope with his lover, the depths below them are dark and there is no safety net anywhere. Unless, of course, we consider literature itself (together with the author) to be such a network.
