Pocket: Le philosophe qui n'était pas sage, Extrait

Viac o knihe

On a warm evening, the jungle seemed to hold its breath as shaman Elianta watched the mysterious stranger, Sandro, approach her hut. This philosopher, with his relentless pursuit, threatens the peace and harmonious life of her tribe. Elianta struggles to understand her people’s reactions and feels a growing determination to protect their happiness from this outsider. The story follows Sandro, a young philosopher from New York, who blames South American Indians for the ritual murder of his wife. He devises a cunning revenge, aiming to undermine the very foundations of their culture and way of life: their harmonious connection to nature, balance, inner freedom, presence, and authentic spirituality. He attempts to instill values typical of Western society—consumerism, the pursuit of wealth, materialism, rationality, individualism, competition, and selfishness. Will Sandro, a representative of modern Western civilization, succeed in disrupting the harmonious world of these so-called "primitive" people?
