My Dragon Tooth was given to me, I didn't think about it. I lived it strangely, metaphysically, exactly as depicted in the book, one autumn, while retreating in the Cretan hinterland. It is an epic, metaphysical song-story, a revelatory fairy tale, which begins with the hero promising his beloved that he will bring her the Dragon's tooth. His adventures, between light and darkness, order and chaos, lead him to the discovery of the great eternal secrets of life. And they lived happily ever after, and we even better.
