Скачать книгу The Weight of Ages: Modern Sonnets - Tatiana Bazhan

This collection of sonnets is not just a poetic exercise, but a daring dialogue across the centuries with Shakespeare himself. Centuries later, the author’s voice sounds like an echo of Shakespeare’s thoughts, but an echo refracted through the prism of modern problems. Here, sonnets become a platform for a philosophical battle, where questions that torment the minds of entire generations are raised: from the eternal search for the meaning of life and true happiness to the ethical dilemmas generated by the development of technology. The author fearlessly explores the moral boundaries, dissects the qualities of a modern person, confused in the labyrinths of information, and tries to find landmarks in this new, rapidly changing world. Each sonnet is a challenge, a question, a search, sometimes an admission of powerlessness in the face of the eternal mysteries of existence.
