The poor baby which was born in the forest of the 2018 turned out to be the Ugly Duckling of the fairytale – said his mother last night. The animal was born among ducks but is a swan and has joined his mother's swan tribe only last morning, on the last day of February.
The duckling's tale was forgotten but the baby has relived it throughout the whole first year of its life. He was born on the 28th February 2018 and separated from his family instantly by a strong electric current ray which forced him to fly away. But the story is not known from the botanists's information source. It is known from his mother.
His mother, swan Leto, is a very well known bird. She lives at home with her adoptive parents, a known literary writer and his wife. It is from him that we could learn about her child's story.
„Leto has swallowed many tears over her lost baby, and then it turned out that he is a hero of the most beautiful legend ever conceived, and that's something” – wrote Henryk Sienkiewicz in the opening chapter of his newly created book. The novel is being written at the current and published in fragments on the internet. Henryk Sienkiewicz aims with these publications to remind the world that he was born in 1939 and survived the IInd World War, after which he worked as the professor of Jagiellonian University in Cracow. Legends happen as we live, and nowadays Sienkiewicz is writing his book „Ogniem i mieczem”, under this very title, and knows it will be shown to people of the previous century after it is finished.
The problem of time travel of stories and artworks is the very theme of „Ogniem i mieczem”. The spyings committed on people and their activities are partially responsible for this state of matters, while the other reason is stealings. Spyings and stealings are symbolised in the novel of Sienkiewicz by fire and sword, and the novel so far tackles this phenomenon from the point of view of fairytales. Sienkiewicz knows and reminds his readers that Puss In Boots is also a legend whose storyline is happening nowadays, and there has been no end yet in real life to this history of a cat caring for his mother. We must however remember, and this is what Henryk Sienkiewicz points to his readers, that the majority of artworks of literature that we have already read before they were or will be written is not available nowadays in their real form, and that the literary market is fed to the brim with false versions of famous titles. Not one book is real in this world – writes Sienkiewicz in his novel – and the notion that they have not been written yet, most of them, is scorned by criminality every day. Sienkiewicz writes „Ogniem i mieczem” as a part of the known trilogy.
„I have not in the past wanted to write that book, and its real version was only present on the market for four years from 1988 to 1992, and then the new false versions emerged and they were horrible, and horrible lies were spread about them and about their author, and in 1995 already I could read in popular magazines and even online encyclopedias that I was long dead, that I was born 100 years before my birthdate, and so was Pablo Picasso and Salvador Dali, and many other friends from my high school. We all were very persecuted for being ourselves since the mid-90s and we have grown accustomed to the horribilities brought to our life by this deceit propaganda” – wrote Henryk Sienkiewicz a month ago in his public online journal. „The persons described by me in this novel are contemporary citizens of the world, and actually this novel tells a story which has not been finished yet, and will not be for about four years from now still, so soon my only work in this book will be as a chronicler of present biographies and present daily-life events of the people I have decided to describe. This is a documentary novel”.
The book „Ogniem i mieczem” tells a story of IIIrd World War and its participants, focusing its spectrum on the woman described also in the fairytale Puss In Boots as the mother of the heroic cat. The fairytales mentioned here and all others had been placed in anthologies under names of Hans Christian Andersen and paralelly Brothers Grimm, while their real author is Pablo Picasso, who has written down each of them, and there are three hundred of them. Those whose end has not still taken place in the real life events have been left by Picasso at the stage in which they are now, and their endings will be added after the events occur. The book of fairytales has been written by Picasso in the course of one month, this January '19, and is available on the internet on the site of the author.
