Madame Chartreuse Sweet 66's20 Cigarettes of Oriental Tobacco, equal parts opium, papaya and human soul
A work of Literary Fiction and Magic Realism that eclipses and redefines currently known artistic genres.
The narrative itself floats between various conversations with disparate characters, in isolation, on a set of curious islands. The uniquely whimsical tale purposely spans and exceeds the limits of the story’s own architecture. It is a work that calls for revisiting and multiple readings. Its composite architecture was framed to offer more discoveries in theme, tone, references, and story, through each visit to the sandy beaches on the islands of which the story takes place.
Madame Chartreuse Sweet 66’s pushes the reader into synthesizing their worldview through the lens of ethical and moral relativism, mythology, primary process, the questioning of patriarchal power structures, systems of religious morality, and the philosophy of friendship and redemption.
The work has been constructed with the idea that densely stylized prose, creatively and judiciously chosen paragraph styles; asyndeton, master and metrical sentences, and metaphors, can be as effective as any scholarly journal for the exposition of new and important thought.
You are encouraged to come visit these islands, engage in conversation with those who call it home; leave a part of who you once were, and hope to bring something unique back with you.
