Aquamarine: Final Tales of the Revolution

This book, published by Twisted Spoon Press in Prague, is the culmination of two years of reflections following the author's complex journey to Mexico in 1993. Initially released in German in 1998, it is recognized for its innovative form and style. The narrative consists of seven interconnected tales featuring unsettling and ambivalent female protagonists, "Aquamarine" and "Marine," who traverse various Mexican landscapes and cities, resembling a chaotic road movie that blends historical events with contemporary realities. The stories reveal the tragic intersections of personal and political realms, merging into a unified narrative that profoundly affects the language itself, challenging the possibilities of expression. Readers are drawn into a vivid dreamscape filled with words and images, creating a disjointed narrative structure where multiple realities coexist. The exploration of ideas is depicted through a spectrum of colors—blues, yellows, and beiges—representing complexities and twists akin to a coiled garden hose. Each loop in this narrative has its unique shape yet belongs to the same overarching loop, embodying a revolution in every sense.
