Hanna Bota scrie cri ale descoperirii de sine prin Cellalt, prin Ceilali. Aceast mare i veche tem are, n cazul ei, o rezolvare aparte, cci Cellalt este nu doar cel din vecintate, ci i, mai ales, cel de foarte departe, tritor n orizonturi exotice, acolo unde diferena e strident i numai privirea lateral, n mai multele sensuri ale acesteia, poate conduce spre esena uman, spre miezul tare al fiinei. Punnd la btaie, n surprinztoare conexiuni, feluritele instrumente de cunoatere i interpretare pe care le-a acumulat n timp: literatur, etnologie, antropologie cultural, teologie, nu se mulumete cu privirea fix, focalizat, ghidat strict de regulile tiinei sale, ci tenteaz pai lturalnici, sensuri derivate, improvizeaz interdisciplinar, se pune pe sine n locul celuilalt pentru a-i descifra perspectiva, nelinitile, modelul de lume.Ultimul canibal ne purtase n insulele Vanuatu din Pacific. De data aceasta, jurnalul eseistic de cltorie, cu inserii poematice i desfurri epice, rotunjete povestea cutrii de sine prin iubire a Laviniei, tnr muzician romnc, urmrind-o n ara sa, mai nti, n Italia i India, apoi, ntr-o curgere de ntmplri nvolburate, rtcitor-iniiatice, ntre Occident i Orient, cu toate simurile n alert. Apa e motivul central al crii. De la Dunre la Gange, de la lacrim la diluviu, izvor susurnd ori val nfuriat, ea e simbol al vieii, al luptei pentru supravieuire i pentru nchegarea unui orict de firav rost. Tot ea traduce reverii identitare, comaruri negre, tensiuni i crize. Vrtejul explorrii de sine i asum traversarea ntunericului ca singur drum la ndemn spre lumin. Drum desenat n tine ca o hart a direciei ctre comoara de mare pre i ezitnd benefic, n noua i incitanta carte a Hannei Bota, ntre realitate i ficiune, cu irizri fantastice i nenumrate ui (ntre)deschise de-o parte i de cealalt a naintrii destinale.“ – Irina Petra
