The Pencil Factory
The "Pencil Factory" is a European novel dedicated to the man-artist and the man-revolutionary. From Cairo in 1866 to Athens on the eve of World War II, great and small events unfold, personal and social tragedies; and some comedies. New cities rise, wars and revolutions begin and end; the earth continues its indifferent course. People are maimed in the trenches; other people fall victim to relentless ideologies and no less relentless instincts; one of the survivors dreams of building a pencil factory and another to build an entire world. "The Pencil Factory" tells the story of a century: what happened in the squares, in the streets, and on the battlefields, what happened in Egypt, Switzerland, Russia, Germany, and Greece; what happened in Black Africa during the time of colonialism. The world is an old mistake and has no borders; History resembles a relay race of dreams: this epic novel, published in 2000 and characterized as "a great book of misery", encompasses the ideas and events that brought modern man to today. This edition is revised by the author.
