Bluebeard (Sinyaya Boroda)

One of Kurt Vonnegut's most bizarre and enigmatic novels, he explores not only the 'mythology of art' of the 20th century, but also the archetypes of 'war prose' and motifs from ancient Greek mythology.
The autobiography of the fictional artist Rabo Karabekian, whose painting career was ruined one day by poor-quality paint, and the mysterious Circe Berman, who attempts to change not only his life but also his views on art and her place in it, serves merely as a framework for a parable that reinterprets the well-known story of a creator, his Muse, and his search for Inspiration.
