[I spoil the main premise of the story.]
The idea here is that there is a seven-headed dragon with dogs heads that is completely insane. As a matter of fact, he is the very spirit of insanity. The aliens who capture him drain him of his insanity and somehow transmit his spirit across all time and all space. This is used to explain why some people in our world throughout history just did horrible things for seemingly no reason.
Where this explanation is a bit dry of substance, the presentation of this story is very ambient. I actually liked how everything was described. It is a very surreal story for something I consider fairly mundane. For that reason, I think it is okay to recommend this one. It has a visual appeal to it if anything. Just understand that there isn't much substance behind the point it's trying to make. Just a simple "what if."

The title seems to imply that madness and love are intrinsically linked. Love and hate are, so I guess that makes sense. Stories about "gods of madness" are very common... so there is something REAL about the idea.
ReplyDeleteIt might be, but who knows?
DeleteThere are things that people do which seem to defy explanation. Human beings tend to be quite self destructive. Especially when things are going well, they will set out to ruin it all.
ReplyDeleteIt's too bad we can't just get along.
