Verzauberte Vorbestimmung

From a present that wishes it knew more about its future. The new novel by Jonas Lüscher. An Algerian soldier finds himself in the first German gas attack, decides someone has to put an end to it, stands up, and walks away. In a future Cairo, a stand-up comedian observes an android laughing at her jokes. A Bohemian weaver is replaced by an automated loom, steals a hammer, and attacks the machine. What do we humans of capitalism dream of, and what do our increasingly rebellious machines dream of? In the unique mirror space of this novel, no conflict is resolved, and every story is still possible. Clever and insane, funny and sharp, Jonas Lüscher tells his tale at the height of his art.
