Synopsis

Yes, for the millionth time you open a book to pass the time, killing what makes you weaker and vulnerable, which is all your life, your existence… This time it’ll be different, I assure you, I won’t let it slide. Don’t think that by turning this page you’ll start reading a pleasant soppy novel with a rich prince as its main character and a dazzling mademoiselle, who throws herself into his arms. You should also not have the illusion that you’ll read a so called serious manuscript, supposedly educational and arty, historically impartial and religiously biased and economically optimistic. No! If you’re expecting one of the above then you should probably close this book, hide it at the back of the shelf and pick something else. I dare you and threaten you if you wish! I’ll be relentless and ruthless towards you. Verbally brutal, realistic and sarcastic. If you want, I will repeat it once again, put the book down while you can and there is still time, before you read the hard truths that will eat their way into your mind like a naughty tick… Ανοήμονες βιούσι ού τερπόμενοι βιούν (fools live without feeling grateful that they live) Democritus 460-370 BC
