Jesse S. Milenkovic

Jesse once honoured the spirit of Honore de Balzac by leaving the forest to qualify himself to the academic degree of Louis Lambert. Having done so, he returned to the forest, where he passed two decades writing historical novels in a solitude leavened only by epistolary correspondence with the folkloric and literary societies of Malaysia and Indonesia. Losing a precious ring under strange circumstances caused him to abandon his prior creative medium for the wish to be a dramatist and the host of a theatre. Led by love of the beauty of goodness, he seeks better to understand the immediate mysteries of atmosphere and presence, how to enrich contemplative theatre with all of the performing arts, and the dramatic latencies of life itself.
