A Rising Fall is the first book in a dystopian trilogy entitled
City: aliteraryconcerto. The story starts ten years after the
blackout as a group of humans struggling to fight off a conscious
famine, try to re-learn empathy to save humanity in an old
industrial assembly plant. In 3 days; feigned affection, deception
and a black heart will take them further into the repression of
their own fears in search of unconditional love. The City Concerto
through literary prose; answers one question: To what lengths would
a father go and what horrible wrongs would he do, to teach a god
how to love again? Following the theme of a concerto, City is
divided into three parts; A Rising Fall, Utopian Circus and I,
Cannibal. Each book is then divided into three pieces and with A
Rising Fall, each piece refers to a day; the three days leading to
the fall of their city. The trilogy illustrates the human
emancipation from three states of love; Eros, Philos and Agape as
each is torn apart under the guise of well intention as humanity;
now void of identity in the wake of a century of dehumanising
dependence and necessity upon industry and digital technology; has
separated itself from the labour of its existence, aborting empathy
and setting in place the death of mother nature. Yet, on the verge
of extinction; mankind presses on; towards salvation; towards the
city of light and sound; towards New Utopia.
