Micro-interview with Toeken

TFF: What was the image that really stuck with you from “The Sons of Victor Levitak”?

Toeken: This is kind of funny in a way; after reading and re-reading Rowley Amato’s superb tale

Quotes by Djibril al-Ayad (?)

“It is in the nature of all living things to die. The sick and old are drawn to it as into the dark centre of a star. Passing through the heart of creation, into eternity. Amen.”
― Djibril al-Ayad, TFF-X: Ten years of The Future Fire

“And I love the beauty that anger provokes, it’s a sort of poetry, a violence of the mind that explodes expectations and lazy assumptions, that makes a mockery of bland realism, a savagery of banal reality and a travesty of benign credence. Rage allows the best writers to turn despair into hope, fantasy into resistance, tragedy into community, controversy into refusal to go quietly.”
― Djibril al-Ayad, TFF-X: Ten years of The Future Fire

Djibril’s Quotes

“Together they’d run away. Together they could find a place to call home. Together they’d finally form their own constellation and never break apart again. He would be her starlight again and she his sun.”
― Hella Grichi, Fae Visions of the Mediterranean
