Writing an essay about the great writer of the last century – Konstantine Gamsakhurdia – is not an easy task. “Meetings with a Great Writer” (Thoughts and Feelings) is the title of Mr. Rezo’s new book. The book clearly shows Rezo Adamia’s deep knowledge of Konstantin Gamsakhurdia’s creativity. It should be noted that the work includes ten portraits of Konstantine Gamsakhurdia by Rezo Adamia. For the creation of this book, the author was awarded the Giorgi Leonidze Prize.
