No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
The first novel by renowned Slovene publisher, politician, and TV personality Luka Novak is an intellectual farce, a surrealistic gallop through philosophy and art. With echoes of Thomas Pynchon and Woody Allen (with Hegel chanting in the background), we follow the ethical, erotic, and culinary adventures of a neurotic Slovene psychiatrist, a sassy Bosnian masseuse, a German mythology professor, and a politically-influential building contractor, involved in religious iconographic propaganda that incites a revolution in Venezuela. The witty and wildly original plot runs from Provence through Ljubljana and TΓΌbingen to Caracas, and weaves in solutions to important ideas and questions: What do men want? What gender will rule the future? What is the destiny that Latin America deserves? And how is the Golden Shower from the DanΓ€e myth linked to the Immaculate Conception?
