Author's Preface: "The title says what it is, and what it’s about. My every narration is centered around my main character, and my books are about love, carnal love and love for fine arts. The Silver Thread is the only theme of my creative works, m/m love, and it’s a silver thread from the Silver Age of Russian literature, besides the book contains the winter tale and the book has come out in the season of winter holydays, 2011-2012, being self-published on Smashwords.com, therefore it’s both history and the winter season. My main character is a storyteller too. Reading one of his stories is like opening a box of delicious candy, each piece exquisite, unique, and a pure delight. His story Beyond Silver Threads is no exception. Embracing each other, two lovers create one shadow for two, and they can create something more, being creative-minded persons like those whose works they enjoy seeing or reading. Like the previous book, Silver Thread Spinner has two or three female characters, and again it must be said that my all female personages are me or my images, more or less, partly or completely, and not anybody else."
A middle-aged translator and agent seeking young writer. Author of my own photies. My given name has several derivatives and diminutives that I happened to use as a part of my pen-names. A big fan of history and English language and linguistic in general, always in online search, placing reliance on Facebook, the busy place like no other. “I believe in yesterday, for really, history and the past of humankind may be a fascinating subject for a chat; history is my hobby, twists and turns & junctions of time; besides, your own past is the only thing that nobody can take away.” “Vaulting my novelese, abetting my hero’s sins, sponging on marble idols, I create reality, fluffy as catkin.”
Fantastically written. Exciting, intricate, absolutely lovely, the novel Silver Thread Spinner makes me love books even more than I already do. I thoroughly enjoyed both the historical fiction and contemporary romance inwoven into the fine texture of the narration, highly poetic, here and there. This is the 4th book in the La Lune Blanche series, and I am about to read the previous three volumes.
Joseph Conrad (1857-1924), Vladimir Nabokov (1899-1977), Andreï Makine (b.1957) and Lara Biyuts are authors who write in second languages. Feel free adding more authors to the list.
