Mechanical Swan Song

By Petrika Ionesco

A vast and original Science Fiction epic, a unique and exuberant Bio-Thriller. Magic, sorcery, hope and disappointment accompany cruelty, realism, and fantasy. The human, terrestrial and spatial, adventures of Dan Pau dissect with humor a morbid decadent society where lust and extravagance invade different worlds, those of art and science, the police and the army, as well as that of the fringes. The tale begins in October 2068 in Bucharest and plays out in Paris, San Francisco, Saturn, and on the constellation of The Swan. The hero is a young theater director, the son of a famous scholar of super sensitive subjects who is kidnapped. While trying to locate his father, he is plunged into an infernal adventure of twists and turns. It is a meditation on the Universe, creation, human relationships, emptiness and matter, the end of the world, love, minorities, the greatness and misery of the humanity in the face of cosmic system which crushes everything in its path laying bare the futility of existence and life after death.....
