About this listen

It is one thing to read the myth of Pygmalion and Galatea in a book and swoon over the romance of it all. It is a different thing entirely when the myth comes tumbling into your life and turns it upside down.

"Be careful what you wish for", warns Alexander Kuprin in this chilling tale of art and obsession.

ما أجمل الوقت الذي تقضيه مع مؤلف قد توفي منذ ما يقارب قرن من الزمان. صديقي في هذه الرحلة المؤلف الروسي الكسندر كوبرن، وهو من أعلام الرواية الروسية. يتحدث كوبرن في هذه الرواية القصيرة عن قصة شبيهة بالأسطورة الإغريقية بيجماليون - والذي يحول فيها النحات تمثالا إلى إمرأة حسناء حقيقية. ولكن في هذه الرواية الروسية يحول البطل أحلامه إلى حقيقة، ويغير عالمه الواقعي إلى حلم. ربما يمكن وصف حالته بالشعور الذي يشعر به الإنسان عندما يخلد للنوم وعقله في حالة من اليقظة السطحية. حينما تختلط الأحلام مع الأصوات المحيطة وينتج عنها إحساس بالخدر والهلوسة اللطيفة.

رواية ممتعة
