Book presentation

This book is not a novel. It is a living literary architecture, a house to inhabit, a world to dissect. Each chapter is a room to traverse. The bedroom reveals vulnerability. The kitchen exposes our absurdities. The living room scrutinizes our relationships. The toilet reflects our future. The bathroom fosters resilience, and the balcony invites us to rediscover our humanity.

 

It's an emotional journey: lucid, brutal, funny, and tender too. An emotional autopsy, a rejection of lukewarmness. The text explores the loss of humanity in an ultra-connected world and questions the role of emotions as the ultimate life force. The challenge lies here: that The Chicken Coop not come to life without awareness.

 

One question runs through it entirely:

In a society dominated by control and rationality, do we still know how to love and fully experience life?

 

Reading recommendation

Don't read to understand: read to experience. Proceed as one would proceed in an unfamiliar house: with curiosity, slowly, with an open heart.

 

 

 

A trilogy about humanity.

I. The Chicken Coop — The Howling

The chicken coop is the point of origin.

 

This is a book of shock, rupture, and awakening. It dissects contemporary absurdity, commodified love, emotional performance, and the loss of connection; with satire, anger, and dark humor.

 

It's an incandescent text.

A cry of existence in the face of an overly controlled world.
