This book is a part of a series of eight satires, where the author has woven together seemingly diverse strands of mythology, quantum physics, religion, microbiology, sex, evolution, violence, societal structures, nationalism, the terrestrial environment, the cosmos, etc., into a new tapestry of life, of history, of the future and of understanding. Nothing is considered as too diverse. All knowledge, all experience, no matter how apparently fragmented, is ultimately holistic. Everything is interlinked and of relevance for our attitudes to life. The satires are fairyish, where planets weep, the flowers preen, trees philosophise, stars dance, where the Gods are both more and less than Gods, and where the viruses debate over life and death and over a basic concept of justice that the few must die, so that the many might live and, of course, there is the sprinkling of fairyish fairies, ogres and hobgoblins, princes and princesses. Contained within is a formidable array of uncomfortable half questions, full truths, quarter truths, sly nudges that keep emerging like so many abandoned ghosts from the dim, dark, reaches of our sub-conscious, emerging from between and behind the lines and pages of the book. There are a few tentative answers. But the answers are without solution, without hope. Yet, since it is in our nature to constantly search for hope, hope shall be found. Her sister, futility, is, after all, too terrible to contemplate.
