Salt Wounds: Science Thriller about Passion, Paranoia and Greed

By Hans Oberleithner

Trilogy: Odd's World (around the year 2000): Neither man, animal nor plant would exist in this world if there were no sodium. And because people want to know why, they investigate it. So it happens that this seemingly dead element of nature comes alive in Professor Odd's head, gradually controls his thinking, and finally dominates him completely. The hunter turns into the hunted, sodium into the assassin.Fake News (around the year 2033): Odd's son Jan discovers a substance in the blood of newts that apparently generates boundless empathy. Its antidote is salt. The discovery reaches the public and is misused by the world's potentates for manipulating people. Jan and his buddies become victims of their own research. Male Birth (around the year 2084): The woman's total emancipation is within reach. Jana, Odd's granddaughter, uses the hedonistic zeitgeist for her obscure ideas. Salt - a metaphor for greed for success - gives her unexpected fame and wealth. The traditional gender roles vanish. In the end, even men give birth. But the initial enthusiasm of the fun society has its limit
