Откат
"Откат" е сборник с пиеси и диалози, с които Захари Карабашлиев предизвиква читателите да станат съавтори и режисьори в най-свободния театър – театъра на въображението. Границите са заличени. Родно и чуждо, локално и универсално, високо и ниско, тук и там се случват на една страница, в една стая, на една сцена. Динамично. Нецензурно. Тъжно. Смешно. И в крайна сметка – наистина. Захари Карабашлиев този път ще ви отведе към прашния под на сцената, под прожекторите, и ще прави същото, което и досега – ще разказва истории.

„Говоря за пиеса от кратки пиеси, импулси, парчета живот.“
Това представлява сборникът ,,Откат" - парченца от различни светове. Истории за сцена, пиеса и диалози - почти всички без дори една капка принуденост в развитието си.

Не е зле да погледа малко театър, преди да се опитва да пише за него.

3.5 stars. Quick and entertaining. The typical Zachary Karabashliev writing style that I enjoy. Just not a "wow" for me.
