CITY: A Literary Concerto

"In flavour it is a bit of a mix of Greg Egan's Diaspora, Yevgeny Zamiatin's We and the 2002 film, Equilibrium. As such, it is in good company......The plot is engaging and keeps you reading, with a successful "show-don't-tell" technique that is often lacking in contemporary literature." - Evie Kendal - Dark Matter FanzineThe first book in a dystopian trilogy called 'City' starts ten years after the blackout as a group of humans, struggling to fight off a conscious famine, try to re-learn empathy to save humanity in an old industrial assembly plant.In 3 days; feigned affection, deception and a black heart will take them to the repression of their own fears in search of New Utopia. "I write weird books."Dark existential fiction that is just as rich in philosophy as it is strange and unsettling.From the reclusive mind of Irish writer, C.SeanMcGee, weird and wonderful stories that delve into the perverse and ever lurking shadow of humanity.Everything written is fiction.STALKER WINDOWS:https://www.cseanmcgee.com/.

Through the charred wreckage of one man's philosophy, an adventure into conscious delusion and dark dystopian fantasy begins as the survivors of The Nest find themselves on three paths where each will endeavor to rein their conscious minds to grasp the philosophy of existence and abate the shackles of conscious Famine as they march onwards towards New Utopia.On one path, Marcos, having woken naked and amnesic at the scorn of ancient women whose immortality derives from the wearing of young girl's faces like decorative dresses; is chased through a dense wilderness for the face that he wears whilst drifting in and out of conscious Famine, giving a glimpse into The City that was, one of obligation and Infant Industries.On the second path, in The Kingdom of the Hound, Ruff the dog is awoken to conscious debate, rationalizing and philosophizing with an ostentatious small Chihuahua called The Bitch Queen over the nature of unconditional love as he fights to save the lives of his human friends from being gamed by savage hounds and monolithic boars.While on a third path, The Woman will unravel, through conscious delusion, the true extent of her repressions and her loveless abandon as a young girl; Safrine, through childish rhyme, is challenged by a creepy old man into a game of coloured cubes to save her two companions from the effect of The Famine.
