Demiurge ex machina page 4



Litterature: Without tautology, it would be like form without content

No, it's too chaotic and overloaded, better to start from the beginning... - commented the Critic.

What beginning? Does it even matter? After all, however this 'anti-novel' begins, it wouldn't make any difference, because you could start with any sentence, like: 'In the beginning was the Word...'¹ or: 'A book like this (...) is intended for...'² a reader who, for unknown reasons (Necessity? Chance? Interests? A quest for new intellectual challenges?) decided to engage with something as absurd as the work of its author's mind...

Also: Imagine that you are reading my book right now, (I’m also wondering how it came to this; there must be some explanation for this phenomenon). So, I should warn you: THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU EXPECT FROM A NOVEL!!! If I haven't discouraged you with this declaration, then I wish you (as much as possible) an interesting read. Probably many things (starting with the form and ending with the content) might not appeal to you, but I am almost certain that almost everyone will find something for themselves in it. So, let’s move on to the content of the work, so as not to weary the reader with unnecessary introductions and explanations, which they likely skipped anyway, thinking they will figure it all out during the further reading.

Actually, the plot (if it can be called that) is so arbitrary that you can read any fragment without losing the sense of the whole, as it depends on the reader, who will probably have a better understanding of it than the author himself after reading. But enough of these ramblings, let's move on to the prosaic aberrations. The time has come for you to discover the secrets hidden in the dark land known as 'Worldshade'... Thus spake Mephistopheles!"
