Un padre y su hijo conversan sobre algunas lecturas compartidas. Esta circunstancia entrañable, cargada a la vez de la sencillez y la profundidad que emergen de lo cotidiano, es el disparador para una serie de reflexiones vinculadas con los grandes temas de la humanidad.A la manera clásica, el diálogo se abre camino por cuestiones como la libertad, la política y la fe; la filosofía, la historia, el avance científico y la evolución del conocimiento; el pasado, el presente y el futuro, es decir, de dónde venimos, quiénes somos, a dónde vamos. Así surge la figura del Homo Deus, la máquina como consecuencia de la evolución humana. Pero aquí no se trata de una evolución por caminos divergentes, sino a través de una misma línea genealógica: la máquina no es “‘otra cosa’ sino la misma, evolucionada”.Como en las grandes obras del género, esta idea central tiene su correlato en la historia que se narra y más allá, mucho más. Porque Juan Fernández imagina, sobre esa base, el futuro cercano, el lejano, el intemporal… Así de infinitos son los límites de esa extraordinaria imaginación que nos regala Existencia. 10
