Принцесса Ангина (2-е издание)

Enfant terrible, kotoryy otkazyvalsya vosprynymat zhyzn vserez. On mechtal byt Bogom, a stal pysatelem, khudozhnykom, stsenarystom, dramaturgom, akterom. Da kem on tolko ne byl, vsegda pry etom ostavayas samym soboy. Mnogolykyy y neulovymyy Rolan Topor — pysatel-snovydets, ynakovyy — ne po sobstvennomu zhelanyyu, a v sylu obstoyatelstv, po vole lyudoedskoy ystoryy, kotoroy net dela do cheloveka. Vsyu zhyzn on budet pereprydumyvat ystoryyu — chastnuyu y kollektyvnuyu. Vsyu zhyzn Topor budet tkat sobstvennyy myf yz obryvkov snov y toshnotvornoy realnosty, sozdavat tonkoe, nevesomoe polotno s neponyatnymy y prychudlyvymy uzoramy. «Pryntsessa Angyna» — skazka, v kotoroy net ny nameka, ny moraly. Ved y to y drugoe — uzhasno skuchno. Tolko absurd, tolko khymery voobrazhenyya, grozyashchye vyprygnut so stranyts. Chytayte, esly osmelytes. No esly nychego ne poymete, ne vzdumayte penyat eto avtoru. Ne ego rabota tolkovat snovydenyya, ego rabota — ykh zapechatlet.

An enfant terrible who refused to take life seriously. He dreamed of being a God, but he became a writer, an artist, a screenwriter, a playwright, and an actor. He was everything he was, but he was always himself. The many—faced and elusive Roland Topor is a dream writer, different - not by his own will, but by force of circumstances, by the will of a cannibalistic story that does not care about man. He will spend his whole life re—inventing history, private and collective. All his life, the Axe will weave its own myth from fragments of dreams and sickening reality, creating a thin, weightless canvas with incomprehensible and bizarre patterns. "Princess Angina" is a fairy tale in which there is neither a hint nor a moral. After all, both are terribly boring. Only the absurd, only the chimeras of imagination, threatening to jump out of the pages. Read it if you dare. But if you don't understand anything, don't blame the author for it. It's not his job to interpret dreams, it's his job to capture them.
