Catastrophe and Imagination

Meer over het boek

Exploring the impact of World War II, the author reflects on how prolonged experiences at sea shaped his perception of time and reality, suggesting that the past has become an illusion. By contrasting past and present, as well as different nations, he articulates a belief that the essence of imaginative fiction has transformed due to the influence of war. This introspective examination delves into the deeper implications of conflict on storytelling and creativity.
