A tidal wave came, as high as the stars and hissing, and it washed away bathers, buildings, all civilization. Paul Sant survived by clinging to a surf mat. Eventually he found land -- but unlike land he had ever known.
Expand description
Combining an allegory of good and evil with an adventure that takes us through nightmare to salvation -- including knights in armor, fish people called Gugs, and an ominous yellow Volkswagen -- R. E. Klein creates a world that is strange beyond imagination yet familiar to the heart, a world where things may not be real, but they are true.
In The History of Our World beyond the Wave, Klein imagines a world washed clean of materialism, cynicism, of the emptiness of modern Life, a world where the metaphysical and the magical are again possible.
