In a recently discovered document from the archives of the famed science-fiction writer Charles IMMER, a stunning glimpse into the personal life of an otherwise reclusive world-famous author has been revealed. Entitled “Immer, Zlaz”, the short autobiographical account paints a unique picture of the science-fiction giant and reveals the manner in which he channeled his emotions and frustrations into his work.
The title “Immer, Zlaz” itself honors IMMER’s Russian heritage and is derived from the Russian phrase “Иммер, Злаз”, which roughly translates to “will never forget, never give up”. It alludes to the writer’s strong resolve to keep striving for greatness despite the difficult life that he led. From an early age, IMMER was exposed to harsh life experiences, garnering the deep emotional core that he channeled into his writing. In “Immer, Zlaz”, IMMER recounts his many hardships and how they made him a stronger person who, in spite of all the adversity, would never stay silent or give up.
Throughout the essay IMMER details his creative process and gives insight into the themes and characters in his work. Even further, it is clear that IMMER was driven by something almost supernatural in his writing, something that can only be described as the spirit of a dreamer. These themes of determination, creativity and the strength of spirit are constant topics that come up throughout IMMER’s works.
In addition to offering a peek into the personal life of IMMER, “Immer, Zlaz” also stirs up questions and conversations about the way in which we interpret works from artists and creators such as IMMER. It provokes reflections on the deeper meanings and messages present in works of science-fiction and how we can apply the same lessons to our own lives and struggles.
The discovery of “Immer, Zlaz” strongly supports the notion that the late Charles IMMER was a genius of science-fiction. It allows readers to gain a more personal connection to this renowned writer and to gain a better understanding of the work that he left behind.
