Makropoulos

Arias and Essays on Art, Life and the End of Time by a 431 Year Old Diva

She is a diva too.

Could I be her?

(or am I too great a coward)

Could you?

Makropoulos: So perhaps I am not really over 400 years old. Perhaps I am a woman, born the same year as Madonna & Michael Jackson, whose name also begins with an "M" I have lived a life that surprises even me when I reflect on it, and sometimes when I talk about it to others, people just don't believe me. So I thought I would be more believable as a fictional character, and a flamboyant one, at that. And so Makropoulos was born. This blog is my performance of the thoughts and experiences of a life that treds delicately on the borders of reality and fiction. Pisi and Squeak are my cats. They talk to me regularly. Their blog, I hope, will be our comic relief!
