On the heights of despair

He spent his life wandering around Europe on his bicycle reading books and lying between two graves in a cemetery, smoking heavily and laughing silently, until he died one day in a poor alleyway in 1995. He declared his rebellion since childhood, a rebellion against existence and life in general, and from that childhood in the village of Razineari he was a friend of death and his friend was the grave digger of the village cemetery who gave him skulls to play with. He is the boy whose relationship with his mother was bad; she said about him, as mentioned in his biography, "If I had known, I would have aborted you." Despite that, he continued his usual play in the alleys of that Transylvania village, the birthplace of the Dracula legend. However, the words his mother said about him remained deeply impactful and influential on his life path, to the extent that he always saw himself as a curse and a shameful curse to existence and even to the universe as a whole.
