“It surprised me in the creative process, what is revealed in ourselves. Maybe it’s a kind of speech. Maybe I’m thinking about death,” said the famous protagonist in an interview with the New York Times and added: “Maybe I don’t understand the violence of the world. I don’t understand how we all know we’re going to die and kill each other over things that in hindsight aren’t that important. I also wonder about the technology. I don’t know why we are in such a hurry to get off the planet and go digital. Maybe I wonder about love too. Why is death so strong and love so fragile and yet the most powerful force on the planet?’
And he concludes: “I like to think about these things, and I think I’ve found a way to put them into a book.”
According to The Daily Beast, The Book of Elsewhere will hit shelves on July 23.
