Asmarana

Asmarana is a dark, humorous, sci-fi romantic thriller. It is a story about the precious and fragile grip on sanity we all possess. Hope is the engine of this strange tale...

Asmara is 29 years old, adrift in life and has creative energy seeking an outlet. Her decision to read one of her short stories on stage fractures the veneer of reality we operate within. The unseen machinery and connective tissue behind our shared existence is revealed. - What is the unique power of this story she intends to read? The events which follow are not so much a snowball effect as a cosmic avalanche which threatens the entire planet. Forces conspire to influence Asmara's unfolding journey into a galactic abyss. Will humanity be dragged with her? High above it all, the moon Europa patiently revolves around Jupiter and exerts its own mysterious gravity on Asmara and her torment. ............................. "Constellations are not just star patterns in the night sky. They also form here on Earth when souls burn bright and fall into each other's orbit. This glowing alignment radiates between Asmara and her fellow stars-a lover, a deranged neighbor, a teenage tomboy, a scientist, and an extraordinary tarantula. However, the constellation they forged is not stable. Fate instead has them colliding together like an atom-smashing accelerator."
