A multifaceted series of reflections on the nature of reality, each exposing the common root of human experience. Original accounts of art, metaphysics, gender, madness, technological slavery, moral philosophy and the nature and origins of the simulation we are fused to, but which is now cracking up, inform enquiries into censorship, superstition, video games and the diabolical ego that separates man from his own life. Clear yet enigmatic, incendiary yet friendly, original yet rooted in our tradition, Ad Radicem confronts and unsettles while reconciling the sensitive reader to an existence that, even in the depths of our dystopian unworld, is stranger and lovelier than can be imagined.
