Bože můj, Bože můj, proč jsi mě opustil1? To je otázka, kterou si kladl nejenom Ježíš na kříži, ale kterou i já mám často tendence si klást tehdy, když mám pocit, že trpím, tehdy když si Boha neumím představit jinak, než jako sadistického režiséra vyžívajícího se v utrpení oněch bezmocných herců na jevišti zvaném Země. Autor knihy Kde je Bůh, když to bolí se snaží najít odpověď na otázky Proč právě já a Má utrpení vůbec nějaký smysl?
Egil's Saga
- 254 stránek

Egil's Saga tells the story of the long and brutal life of tenth-century warrior-poet and farmer Egill Skallagrímsson: a morally ambiguous character who was at once the composer of intricately beautiful poetry, and a physical grotesque capable of staggering brutality. The saga recounts Egil's progression from youthful savagery to mature wisdom as he struggles to avenge his father's exile from Norway, defend his honour against the Norwegian King Erik Bloodaxe, and fight for the English King Athelstan in his battles against Scotland. Exploring issues as diverse as the question of loyalty, the power of poetry, and the relationship between two brothers who love the same woman, Egil's Saga is a fascinating depiction of a deeply human character.
