Dozing Giants is a personal journey of facing the giant objects in life that have caused a deep fear in the author. This fear, known as Megalophobia, has grown and permeated every aspect of life. Despite this fear, the author is fascinated by the pain it causes and has embarked on a journey to pursue giants in the present moment, whether they be physical entities or abstract concepts.The book takes the reader on a journey, traversing mountains and rivers, crossing the edges of eras, until arriving in front of the giants. Through this journey, the author explores the transformation of specific figures into giant sculptures, the creation of myths, and the retelling of history.

 

The book serves as a reflection on the influence of these giants in our lives, and an exploration of how we can overcome them.Through the lens of Megalophobia, the author examines the structures and systems that uphold the giants' power, questioning their authority and invincibility. This critical examination opens up the possibility of retelling history from a new perspective, one that challenges the patriarchal systems that have contributed to the creation of these giants.
