In brief: The selection of stanzas of Kęstutis Navakas ”Chronicles of Good Life“ is a mosaic of moments experienced or created more than ten years ago. The author of the article presents the review of the selection. As the book of Bohemian essays is divided into three parts – the chronicles of white, red and green wine, each of them is reviewed in sequence.
In brief: Usually nobody regards young people, who try to judge about works of grown-up people, seriously. Therefore, the author stresses from the beginning that the remarks presented in the article are not critical works but notes about the poetry of Dovilė Zelčiūtė, Daiva Čepauskaitė and Donaldas Kajokas.
In brief: The book of K.Navakas “Chronicles of Good Life“ is an attempt to cross the rather close distance of ten years and reveal the environment which existed a decade ago, to create a chronicle about it. The author of the book describes the genre of stories included into the “Chronicles” as Bohemian essays. Such a description makes one expect a playful text about the extravagance of Bohemian life and the quenchless passion of life.
