EDITORIAL INFORMATION

Nine people meet in the park: a painter, a specialist in the physic sciences, a Germanist lady, an ecologist, a priest, a gardener, a member of Parliament and two electricians. All of them search for knowledge and self-fulfillment through the crafts that give birth and nurture our world, through God, the self and also sexual satisfaction.

The reader takes part in discussions full of emotion on the Arts, Science, Philosophy, and Religion, enters the world of the voyeur, witnesses the blossoming of a great love, and lives the tragedy of two women who are murdered, two men who face death and a third one in dispair.

The author opens the reader's eyes and shows new paths, surpassing the frame of everyday experience, as he takes a look at the extraordinary, leading the reader to new fields, up to a new God and fantastic visions. He examines the essential problems of current humankind from an unusual perspective. Thus the ground for a new human world is finally established: a new understanding of the world which gives a new meaning to human life; a realistic, sincere self-comprehension that sets us free.

OUR REVIEW

Professor Otto Kinne, the author of this book, reflects his scientific background in the novelisation of essential questions we humans so often ask ourselves. With suitably chosen verses that open and close the novel, he takes the reader through a voyage that explores the entire universe of the current human beings, their interests, their essence, the unending search for knowledge about the world and of the self. This novel is a good read for those readers having a good command of the German language who wish to reflect on the essence of being human in our world from a novelised perspective.
