Kad smo objavili Volasa pre 6 meseci nismo ni sanjali da je to taj Volas. A ne bi smo ga objavili da nismo krenuli sa čitanjem “Kratki razgovori sa ogavnim muškarcima” (vidite ovde gde je sve ima) u kojima možete otkriti da ste se našli u uraganu forme, sadržaja i da više ne znate da li vas knjiga čita i dok se nalazite u toj dilemi, uvek neki čekić stoji iza sledećeg paragrafa da izađe iz svojih “podrazumevanih podešavanja” kako je Volas rekao u govoru “Ovo je voda” .

Ceo pregled na srpskom govora možete pogledati na linku kome se zahvaljujemo časopisu Polja i specijalnom broju koji je posvećen upravo ovom piscu

Još jedna anegdota vezana za Volasa koju nam je podelila naša prijateljica amico del cuore Angela iz Sardinije :

It was called “Forgiveness machine”. The idea behind was that you wrote done on a piece of paper the person or the thing that you wanted to forgive, or to be forgiven for, and a vacuum sucked that piece of paper in one hand, while at the other it was shredded. This was the way things or people could be forgiven. She said that it was curious to observe how people behaved. At first they found the machine kind of silly, but when they were about to put their message into the machine, they became anxious that it could really work and that the forgiveness, they were looking for but which they weren’t sure they were ready to do, could really become concrete.

At last, she dismantled the machine because she found it overwhelming for people who used it and for herself either. She never was able to use it and this made her realise that she couldn’t forgive him for dying so soon
