Description:
Scent of the Rose is a breathtaking novel about words, a literary maze that cannot fail to move its readers. If Thus Spoke Zarathrusta is a “book for all and none”, Scent of the Rose is a book for none and all. And this is no mere play on words: the novel itself is a word game, a literary challenge whose scent is unmistakable.
From the very beginning, the author sets himself a seemingly impossible task – to write a book with neither words nor pages – and, even more remarkably, he succeeds. However paradoxical it may sound, he really does write such a book…
This text. overflowing with references, poetry and melancholy, is a labyrinth of surprises and unexpected twists and turns. Throughout its three hundred pages, one can simply never guess what the next page will bring. And this is not all: The Exhibition of Words, another small novel covered by The Scent of the Rose, awaits the reader.
The thousand swirling aromas of Zaza Burchuladze’s new book will lure you into the adventure of a narrator walking a tightrope between the real and the imaginary.
