Charisma

Thoughts, and ways of thinking, give us our substance and personal essence, which make us so individualistic but, conversely, allow as to closely relate to each other. Our 'here and now', our reality or actuality is deeply rooted in our beliefs, hopes and plans for the future. That is the reason why it is never about 'bullshit', but is always about Hoping, Dreaming and our Imagination, as well as about the way how we negotiate and renegotiate our thoughts with those who create with us the 'here and now'. This paper and future research are dedicated to the political world, which is increasingly becoming virtual, in a visionary leadership, created by each of us, in our own personal way.

Memoria tells the seemingly ordinary story of a woman overwhelmed by grief when her lover abandons her. The loss opens an old wound: some 20 years ago Emma's teenage sister vanished without a trace. Soon Emma will meet another man, but the return to joy is painfully slow. Rarely has the loss of love, as well as the subtle dislocation of a family hit by tragedy, been evoked more poignantly than in this luminous novel. In Memoria's multi-layered narrative, the reader is irresistibly drawn into the slow reconstruction of Emma's outer and inner world, a world of dizzying sensuality, deep sadness, bewitchingly beautiful images, and, ultimately, "the small circle of new beginnings."
