Sons of Empire

Author: Archil Kikodze

In his third novel, Archil Kikodze explores the darker aspects of humaneness. Set against the backdrop of the 2024 unrest in Georgia, the story unravels the life of a former MP from the ruling party, who has been praised for turning away from the regime, but the reality is far from a simple black-and-white dichotomy. So is his persona, revealed through the innermost thoughts and fears, his exposed past, and the two male archetypes embodied by the characters he confides in — the writer and the outlaw.

The invisible war is waging. The binding threads of society have been cut — everyone is against everyone. Each person tries to survive in their own way. There are no heroes in this war, only three archetypal figures, similar to the masks from ancient drama: the MP and his two friends — the writer and the outlaw.
