Sorin Hadârcă's Reviews > Palatul Viselor

Reports on private dreams are coming from all the angles of the empire. Dreams are important because they are The Power. Kafkaesque bureaucratic machinery is put in place to analyze, categorize and interpret the dreams. Yet one nation (which happens to be Albanian) stops dreaming… Well, I think what makes the dreams so powerful is their freedom. The wondering mind, the floating images, the free flow of association is really the game hunted by the ruling stock. Not to dream is the refusal to choose in a world deprived of choice, a desires denial of freedom and… a crime bigger than any plotting dream.
