Everything Is Beautiful

Beschreibung

In beautiful and pristine prose/poetical writing, Martino captures an ancient time with a mixture of global characters that, nonetheless, still prevail in today's time both in action and spirit. Let's just say, that the writer reflects a universal time without borders in an allegorical fable. Hallucinatory and majestic, peacefully moving from inner to outer realms, this author transcends all the characters into a flight from a practical reality to an ethereal abode: the place of the heart. Very unique and strange and real at the same time, Martino parallels the reality of an odd life on earth trying to comprehend existence with a way that invites all comfortably to look inwards and see their own story fused in EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL. The setting and the time of the story move from rural to urban time in action while displaying the same inner content of both. Human beings are human beings after all. And as Martino always wants to do, he takes the inner content of life and exposes it in a gentle but exaggerated manner in the style of hyperbole and magical/realism with all its flaws. Somehow, the final outcome of the shape is all too real. Somehow, everything is beautiful as the title of this novel declares. By looking at the intricacies of each unique character, the reader is most likely to come out of this novel and into another understanding of their own unique flavor as a human

Autor

MAURO MEVLUD MARTINO was born in Calabria, southern Italy on March 29th, 1953. He is known as a Canadian Italian Turkish writer as his work has also been translated into Turkish from his original English work. A year after birth, in 1954, with his parents, he arrived in Toronto, Canada. It was there that he was educated, and It was there that he learned to live inside different cultures that created a diverse world in his mind. A world that ultimately nourished itself from a place without borders. A world that found its form in different hues and approaches to life but where he came to believe originated from the SAME SOURCE. Now, 71 years old, and after having included Istanbul as one of his residences since his retirement from teaching English literature in Toronto in 2004, he continues to reflect on a life that experienced much more than family and profession, and he continues to wonder and write mostly about the journey towards the SAME SOURCE. Mr. Martino also involves himself in film work, and has acted in Turkish film and television, and has attended many important film festivals including Cannes and Berlin as a representative of Turkish film. He has been a member of the jury for the Alexandria Film Festival and the Muslim Film Festival of Kazan, and a special guest of the Kolkata Film Festival. His film scripts are also in the making and being considered by production companies. Oftentimes, culture, race, color, religion, and blood ties are sources of wonderful nourishment and add to the beauty of the diversity of living. However, Martino seeks to place the SAME SOURCE ahead of all so that his journey leaves no loose ends. His work is an invitation to all of those who are looking for much more than what appears on the outside.
