Highly entertaining, at times totally believable,
at times to be taken with a grain of salt, this book
leaps above the fantastic into a realism that brings
together literature, science and quirky visual arts.
Poet, composer and novelist Laurian Taler makes
the character Adam Onkey communicate several
essential truths. It is a social, sci-fi allegory in
which a wondrous chimp tells it, or better, writes it
as it is. Four main motives that intertwine satirically
and in many places just comically, allow the reader
to see and understand beyond the immediacy of events.
