![]() "He was an old man who was fishing alone in his little boat at the Gulf Stream.
No. He is an old and weird man who is afraid of water and who has made theatre already since the year I was born. He is magnificent, he is an artist. ARTIST! And a good friend. Aivar Kallaste. He is the one! Who else? I have worked together with Aivar, involved him in my publications and productions already... 1,2,3,4,5,6... the current one is already the seventh time that he has said "Yes!" again. This production is dedicated to You, Aivar. Thank you again, and once more!“ Janek Savolainen
It is noteworthy in twentieth century fiction, reaffirming Hemingway's worldwide literary prominence as well as being a significant factor in his selection for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954.
