Lauris Veips and 4 other people liked Marta Martinsone's review of The Odyssey: "What a ride. Latviešu tulkojums ir lielisks. Vīriem šķēpi caurdur pupus, viņi sandales sien zem pēdām un peld pār zivīgo jūru. Visi visu laiku raud un vaimanā. Kāds pālī nokrīt no jumta un Aīda valstībā raudot lād “reibīgo vīnu”. Loved it."

distracted by expectation, as if every event
announced a beloved? (Where can you find a place
to keep her, with all the huge strange thoughts inside you
going and coming and often staying all night.)…”

“There's the life and there's the consumer event. Everything around us tends to channel our lives toward some final reality in print or on film. Two lovers quarrel in the back of a taxi and a question becomes implicit in the event. Who will write the book and who will play the lovers in the movie? Everything seeks its own heightened version.”
― Don DeLillo, Mao II
