#Barbarai #arpadschiling #coetzee #waitingforbarbarians #jaunimoteatras Teatras karo metu - savigraužos, savigailos ir saviplakos menas. Didysis Valentinas Masalskis ir jo žmogiškasis pavidalas, murkdomas vandeny, durpėse, seno kūno dreblume, išmatose ir galiausiai belytiškume. Lietuviškame teatre įklimpęs vengrų režisūros genijus. Barbaras tremtyje. #vakarbuvauteatre

Just started Youth by JM Coetzee, which is memoir of his young life from the age of 19. It reads quite like a first-person novel and draws you in straight away. I've read Disgrace and The Master of Petersburg by him - both highly recommended. @bookstodon #books #novels #fiction #memoir #autofiction #Coetzee #amreading #literaryfiction

@SergKoren "HumAnimal: Race, Law, Language" by #KalpanaRahitaSeshadri is a great book on the power of silence. It also discusses some great fiction with silent characters (including #Coetzee's Foe which is one my fave books ever).
