Every one of the characters in Dato Gorgiladze’s stories feels tangible and real: from Tato, who becomes embroiled in a scandal at a seemingly innocuous global forum, to Iza, a former teacher who has just been released from jail and unexpectedly bumps into one of his old pupils in Milan; and from Giorgi Uriadmkopeli, who flees compulsory military service and turns up in a pile of “fairy-tale shit”, to God, who is incarnated on the streets of Tbilisi as a man, a role to which He is not accustomed. As we are often informed during the opening credits of a film, this book is based on real events, but thanks to the author’s brilliant imagination, masterful storytelling, and sense of humour, these real events are transformed into a gripping thriller that you will finish reading in less time than it takes to sit through a normal-length movie.
