There is no doubt: the cat Kastrato is the reincarnation of a great eunuch from antiquity: the theologian Origen, the Byzantine general Narses, or perhaps one of the versatile prime ministers of Byzantium. Let him decide for himself.

We are interested in the trio "Kastrato". Well, they are identical. All three heroes are castrated: Kastrato in body, the old lady in spirit, and Lucretia in soul. Three disabilities of the modern world playing the role-playing game here and masochistically nurturing their unhappiness as they depend on each other. Each hero expresses his own unsatisfied desires, for which, like all of us, he blames, whether he admits it or not, the...cruel fate.

If the roles were reversed - Kastrato fully and insatiably lascivious, Lucretia "apathetic" and virtuous, the lady anti-romantic, autocratic, and perhaps naive - the landscape of the world would still be incurable, the trio would still be shipwrecked in its contradictions, and of course, "Kastrato" would still balance brilliantly as poetic comics.

Therefore, the poetry of "Kastrato" consists precisely in its symmetry with the essence of relationships in the modern world: they are impossible. This "dialogue of the deaf," beyond its comedic mechanisms, is instructive in this regard: that beings today live as tragicomic and especially lonely, within their own needs and their own speech code.
