It's Carnival time 2012, and the Slovenian city of Maribor is
European Capital of Culture. In an attempt to maximize profit,
local politicians and showman peddle every possible art form.
Amidst the hype, dramatist Adam Bely and Cuban-Austrian journalist
Rosa Portero pursue a secret mission: to track down and overthrow
the sinister octopus of 13 selected persons that seems to be in
control. On the way, they encounter a variety of important
citizens, all entangled in a web of corruption and lies. In the
tradition of Bulgakov, Gogol and Kafka Ales Steger lets the forces
of good and evil collide in this grandiose literary thriller. This
is a debut novel filled with striking personae, haunting images and
a grotesque plot. It proves, in the end, to be a journey into the
heart of a European darkness.
