Venera

Venera – The world is dying.
Time no longer seems to flow normally, the universe is disintegrating and different layers of reality seem to be juxtaposed.
It is the end, and yet, there could be a plan B to save the world, a great “saving” towards something else.
On a science-fictional premise that at first sight has been treated a thousand times (the end of the world), Joseph Callioni builds here a work that has something profoundly new; through an aesthetic impregnated with surrealism and populated with fantastic visions, evoking both gnosis and quantum physics Venera is a book that shakes and challenges while making a beautiful place for the imagination and the inner journey.
Between The Impossible Planet, his previous book and VeneraJoseph Callioni has made a beautiful artistic change, and carried by his subject, multiplies the techniques and the atmospheres, passing from a line of extreme finesse to something more smoky, as his characters wander and pass from one world to another.
The two books, which have as many common points as divergent, share an assumed love for incongruous situations and a fairly offbeat and absurd humor.
