Stollbergs Inferno

A philosophical thriller about hell, revolt, and the absurd. The religious critic Jan Stollberg dies during a lecture and finds himself, to his utter astonishment and horror, in the Christian pre-hell, which actually looks just as the Catholic Church has preached for centuries. Like him, all philosophers who have represented Enlightenment thought are trapped there, from Immanuel Kant to Friedrich Nietzsche, from Karl Marx to Albert Camus. The imminent transport of Ludwig Feuerbach to the "Heavenly Ramp" becomes the catalyst for the tormented prisoners to no longer just interpret the hellish conditions but to change them - they plan a revolt against the dictatorship of God. Stollberg's Inferno is an exciting philosophical novel that brings the insights of philosophy closer to readers through the dialogues of the imprisoned philosophers.
