He is deeply introspective, thinking about sad things and his self-confidence is at zero. This feeling is so heavy that he must do something urgently. He needs to get out of the tunnel immediately, to do anything to feel better, anything at all. Perhaps he should call his parents and cry - dignity doesn’t matter now - maybe he should see a friend, maybe he...

Review this product
  • Paper quality
  • Was it easy to read?
  • Was it interesting enough?
  • I liked the writing style
  • I would read a book by the same author
  • I would recommend it for reading
  • Explosive pace and unstoppable. Except for 7-8 pages in the middle of the book that somehow threw me out of the text (two scenes didn't fit well for me), everything else is the strongest thing I've read lately.

    Simply wonderful. Excellent writing and a flawless internal rhythm that captivates you. You read it in a few hours but it stays with you forever.

    A mystery novel by Bougioukas Sotiris. It reminds you of Kafka's Trial and immerses you completely! {Kfv+ΙοΝας}

    I really liked it. However, it needed one more click in solving the mystery (which is good) and the transition of the hero's psychological state seemed a bit rushed (but overall quite convincing). Otherwise, I consider it one of the most sincere books I have read, with the right doses of mystery and depth, a good choice for everyone but especially for people in their sensitive age of 30.

    It is hopeful that such books are still being written, especially by young and promising individuals. It is one of the most beautiful psychoanalytic novels I have ever read!

    An excellent book, with amazing writing that doesn't tire the reader, comprehensible, but with multiple layers of meaning. Perhaps the best book I have read recently. The way the author manages to convey the pain of separation to the reader through his realistic narration, which is perfectly intertwined with mythological-symbolic constructions, is moving. Additionally, the female figure that emerges in the work, sometimes as soothing and sometimes as potentially destructive, astonishes both men and women and raises questions for readers about the difficulty of the relationship between the two genders. Lastly, it raises existential questions about life, death, and religion. Congratulations. We eagerly await the next one.

Description & Specifications

He is deeply introspective, thinking about sad things and his self-confidence is at zero. This feeling is so heavy that he must do something urgently. He needs to get out of the tunnel immediately, to do anything to feel better, anything at all. Perhaps he should call his parents and cry - dignity doesn’t matter now - maybe he should see a friend, maybe he should even call her? But no, he cannot do that at all, that would be the ultimate admission of his defeat, the ultimate disgrace - no, humiliation has its limits. After all, it was he who made the last call in May '12.
