To write incomprehensible and brilliant books. Until one day a rock singer asked me to write his song lyrics- retired me from the search of immortality and returned me to the path of the common people. And I became a writer. This made me travel across many regions- meet innumerable people- visit countless countries- sleep in many places... The pages of this book Like the Flowing River are stories of moments I lived- tales I was told- or reflections I pondered on at each moment I travelled certain stage of the river of my life. They are not new pieces- as they were published in newspapers and magazines in different countries all over the World- but I have now compiled them and revised them. They are part of my existence and my experience- and I offer them to you- my readers. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
