On his return from France in 1915 Paolo Iashvili gathered his symbolist friends in Kutaisi, thus establishing the Blue Horns with the aim of getting closer to European poetic form and style. In fact, that is exactly what caused the inevitable: the Communist dictatorship banned the order, even executing some of its outstanding members.
Kolau Nadiradze was among those who miraculously survived the purges. Nino Chkhikvishvili’s book is the first one in which the life and work of the last of the Blue Horns is brought back to today’s readers.
