Opis

Six unique short stories take you on a journey through different worlds, emotions, and narrative styles. In "The Empty Concert", an orchestra finds itself in a ghostly French village for a bizarre surreal concert experience with an invisible audience. "Story Without Dialogue" is a metafictional experiment where the author explores the boundaries of the genre while grappling with the conventions of writing. "The Man Who Wanted to Change the Future" catapults the reader into a world where time and reality become distorted by an ambitious inventor whose experiments have unforeseen consequences. "The Last Human" offers a poignant reflection on the loneliness of human existence in a post-apocalyptic world. "An Important Job" unveils the absurd world of a royal court, where a team of dedicated servants work tirelessly to ensure the king's day goes flawlessly. Finally, "The Mosquito and the Hospital" tells the story of an innocent man in the hospital and a surprising revelation that turns everything upside down. This collection by Johan Meyste is brimming with humor, suspense, mystery, satire, and absurdity.
