CONCEPT OF THE NOVEL


In the city state of Oolong Morblock, where a certain proportion of the people have a natural ability to cause themselves to explode, in effect making them potential suicide bombers, Ibrahim Chess tries to find the middle road: to steer a course of moderation and sanity in a world which is going mad, and where the civil peace is threatened by the increasingly intolerant fanaticism of the conflict between the minority group to which Ibrahim belongs, the astrals, and the city state's dominant group, the norms.

The Child Damaged, the Child Dead

        Always weeping,
        Unexpectedly.
        Ambushed,
        At odd moments,
        By the pause of the child's fingers,
        By the recollection ...

        Baby Paffita, sixteen months of age, still had toes, so she played with them. Before the day was over, her toes would be gone. And her arms, too. Welcome to the modern world, baby Paffita!
