La titolo, laŭ la verkinto, ne venas el la radiko “erar’” sed el la sufiksoj “-er-” kaj “-ar-“.

JACOBSON, Stig: Eraro. Skövde: Al-fab-et-o, 1998. 52p. Broŝurita. ISBN 91-973467-1-3.

English version here.

10 mallongaj, facile legeblaj, nekutimaj kaj ĝenerale interesvekaj noveloj de sveda verkisto- esperantisto.

“Nokto en policejo” prezentas al ni arestitan senhejmulon, kiu kolektas nekutimajn lignerojn. “La korktirilo” estas religia historio de tiu tre utila ilo. “Sincere via …” esploras la dialektikon inter vereco kaj ĝentileco. “La runŝtono” estas stranga sed iel familiara eltrovaĵo en la sveda arbaro. “Tramveturas la sorto” montras la vivefikojn de momenta, neantaŭpripensita delikto. “Gloris” estas tute nekutima kurĉevalo, kiun aĉetas tute nebona posedanto. En “La teko” malkuraĝa homo portas sian tekon en senhejmecon kaj morton, post kio kuraĝa homo portas ĝin el senhejmeco al gloro. “De torto al kreto” montras, ke ĉiu knabo havas ian utilan kapablon. En “Reveni por foriri” migrantan bicikliston regalas kampara maljunulino per tute nekutima vivrakonto. Kaj “Kukola valso” montras la potencon de muziko.

La titolo, laŭ la verkinto, ne venas el la radiko “erar’” sed el la sufiksoj “-er-” kaj “-ar-“.



Jacobson, Stig: Eraro. Skövde: Al-fab-et-o, 1998. 52 p. Paper. ISBN 91-973467-1-3.

Ten short, easily readable, unusual and generally interesting short stories by a Swedish author and Esperanto speaker.

“A Night in the Police Station” introduces us to an arrested vagrant who collects unusual pieces of wood. “The Cork-Drawer” is a religious history of this very useful tool. “Sincerely Yours …” studies the dialectic between truth and politeness. “The Rune-Stone” is a strange but somewhat familiar discovery in a Swedish forest. “Fate Takes the Streetcar” shows the life-effects of a momentary, unconsidered dereliction. “Gloris” is a very unusual racehorse, bought by a very bad owner. In “The Briefcase” a cowardly man carries his briefcase into homelessness and death, after which a brave man carries it out of homelessness and to glory. “From Pie to Chalk” shows that every child has some useful power. In “Come Back To Leave” a wandering bicyclist is treated by an elderly countrywoman to a very unusual story of her life. And “The Cuckoo Waltz” shows the power of music.

The title, according to the author, does not come from the root “erar’” (to err) but from the suffixes “-er-” and “-ar-“.
