Title : Milarepa - Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt - Book

Summary :

Simon has the same dream every night, and an enigmatic woman gives him the key: he is the reincarnation of the uncle of Milarepa, the famous 11th-century Tibetan hermit, who harbored an inexpiable hatred for his nephew. To escape the cycle of rebirth, Simon must tell the story of the two men, identifying with them to the point of blending their identities with his own. But where does the dream begin and where does reality end? Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt, in this monologue play, which is also a tale in the spirit of Tibetan Buddhism, continues his philosophical questioning: does reality exist outside of our perception of it?
