Annotation
Since we don't know when we will die, we look at life like a bottomless well. However, everything happens in a certain amount, and in a very small amount, really. How many more times will you remember that afternoon from your childhood, which is so deeply embedded in your existence that you can't even imagine life without it? four times five times If not so many times? How many more times can you watch the full moon rise? maybe twenty times? And yet how endless it seems to us!"
"Under the Cover of the Sky" is the first novel by Paul Bowles, one of the most important writers of the American Beat generation. This is a text about alienation, when the new existential reality burdens and destroys a person so much that he becomes alienated not only from the environment, but also from his inner world, loved ones and even his body. The story takes place in North Africa and the Sahara after World War II. The trip of three young Americans, which should be full of inspiration and learning about a new culture, takes a strange turn - the Sahara will be hostile to the travelers and lead to an adventure that the characters will have trouble finding the necessary strength to deal with. Despite the many difficulties that befell Bowles and his novel, "Under the Cover of the Sky" still remains in the history of literature as one of the most influential texts. Time Magazine listed it as one of the 100 best novels of the last century.
After years of refusal, Bowles finally agreed to a film adaptation of the novel, giving Bernardo Bertolucci the rights to make the film. Ryuichi Sakamoto composed the music for the film, who continued to create music influenced by Bowles' novel years later.
