And really liked Maria for a reason, and I think for the same reason readers liked it: Mario always


Importami ceramic exchanged between Egea and the eastern part of the Mediterranean in the second half of the second millennium BC it sounds awful, is not it? So to speak humanly: I'm interested in why someone was driving in the Bronze Age from one end of the known world to the other a clay bowl or jug. For Sale? As a gift? Because seabox I got a jug on the way from the girl and could not part with it? 'm Interested in the human stories that lie behind the inconspicuous shells. Maybe so well that I started to write a novel, I tend to konfabulowania is seen in the study do not lend :-)
Born child. And suddenly the world that revolved at a frantic pace, all the scholarships, conferences, excavations, stops in place. It's an awful feeling completely, as if dropped from the carousel: dizziness is still going on, but the man sitting on the ground, and butt hurt, because this land is damn hard.
You can not run fast forward with a child under his arm. Yes, some are successful, but for that you need at least one willing to take care of grandma, and I do not have anyone like that. So I had to unload. Of course, seabox I'm still an archaeologist, but I no longer work so hard and so many not leaving. I had to find something that would satisfy hunger sensations.
Because writing is still the same form of escapism as reading or watching movies. But much more intense, seabox because the character creation and driving of them in motion, although drains energy like a vampire, it brings a lot more satisfaction than just passive consuming seabox them.
But seriously? The idea came from fear. I was afraid that if you will set the action in any other environment, I can not portray it the way I wanted. In the case of archaeologists was calm, that no detail escapes me. Only now, finishing third novel, I'm beginning to mature to that to write something else, what heroes are people outside the circle of scientists.
Yes, it was the first idea that came into my mind, because I spent in this position a few seasons. Troy unlikely place, seabox in the middle of the burnt sun plateau, close enough to the sea that was it seen, but at the same time far enough away to miss him man. Thousands of years of blood-soaked history, and around tomato fields and tiny villages. I can give a few words of the climate of the place, but I think I managed seabox to capture it in "Sacrifice Polikseny". Of course, Troy is the background, the main thread of the novel is a puzzle archaeological detective: the ancient altar, where the sacrifices of the men are found dead body of a young woman ...
As I think everyone really like the Indiana Jones movies, but also terribly irritated me constantly repeated seabox stereotypes. I thought I'd try otherwise. Of course my picture excavation is slightly seabox exaggerated in the other direction, as in the novel necessarily need a little redraw featured the world. But the "victim Polikseny" has been repeatedly praised just for realism and non-stereotypical approach to the work of the archaeologist.
The "Head of Niobe", readers are moving from one extreme: instead of Turkey - Poland, instead of hot weather - frosts and snowstorms, instead of spatial plains - the claustrophobic atmosphere of the palace buried in snow ...
Palace in Nieborowie a place that cries out for it to be the background of some novels, best thriller or horror. This place will be fully developed in the eighteenth century by Helena Radziwiłł, admirer and collector of antiquities. But aristocrat does not depend only on this to create a museum and clog them bought their sculptures, she wanted climates, moods. Even more shocking than the palace is a park in nearby Arcadia, where Radziwillow created nooks musings, places sighs and shelter, which could muse over the meaninglessness of life. Today we would call it pretentious seabox kitsch, but then it was the latest fashion. And for centuries, the nobility gained kitsch, a little fun, a little horrified. seabox
Whenever I'm in Nieborowie, seabox and I spent a lot of time and privately and oprowadzając students the collections of sculpture, I always wonder how it would be if this place no one could get out. This thought haunted me so much that I finally decided to write about this novel. Winter snowstorm of the century, and Nieborowie held an international conference of specialists from ancient sculpture. Unfortunately, one of them turns out to be not only an admirer seabox of the sculpture but also a murderer who worked next conference participants at the statues.
I like Maria in the role of the main character, because his cynical view of the world and malicious comments, and the fact that it does not hesitate to these comments literally deliver in all circumstances, they add spice to each scene.
And really liked Maria for a reason, and I think for the same reason readers liked it: Mario always says what he thinks. I also would've wanted, but
