The stories in The Verdict Of The Mountains mirror the subtleties and complexities of everyday life. Writing in the simplest of styles but with the most astonishing of impact, Kipiani was certainly at the top of his form in this intimate yet universal collection. In this astounding volume, the reader will be floored right away with the stories of “The Oboe”, “The Verdict of the Mountains” and “The Theory of Relativity”. Never more aptly highlighted in his previous novels, “The Red Clouds” (1967) and “Hats In The Sky” (1971), he further expands his unique narrative style in The Verdict Of The Mountains.ĭespite his early passing, Kipiani has made an indelible mark in Georgian literature. Kipiani’s trademark in storytelling is the diversity of his characters which he seamlessly draws from real life inspiration, and later juxtaposed with his unique artistic integrity and insight. In The Verdict Of The Mountains, an anthology of his stunningly endearing short stories are outstandingly delivered in English. For one so talented, he departed without ample opportunity to produce what may well have been his finest works. It was largely felt amongst the literati in the country.
Acclaimed Georgian author Edisher Kipiani prematurely passed away at 48 years old last 1972.
