Written in a literary form much neglected in contemporary literature, The Expose is precisely that: an attempt to revive the old form of the Parable. Although admittedly brief in its scope (seeing how such is the nature of the form of the parable), The Expose draws its inspiration directly from such tales, some closer some not so much resembling the form of the parable, like the Old Testament tails such as Jonah and the Wale and Cain and Able (the two mention parables being the technical inspiration for my tackling the form of the Parable); and such works, perhaps wrongfully neglected as Boccaccio's Decameron, and the works of other Renaissance masters such as Cervantes and Rable. What sets these parables apart from the usual form is that they were written both in lyrical and rhythmic prose, as well as in normative prose (the last three parables), simply out of the reason that I, as a writer, wanted to prove myself skillful enough to not only tackle a literary form which was new for me, but to do it in a foreign language, i.e. the book was written in original English, and also I wanted to tackle a form within a form, i.e. parables written in rhythmic prose (for which Baudelaire said is the most difficult kind of prose one could write).
