Overview

""A cinematic montage poem that blurs the lines between poetry and theatre."" Fiction Inc. is a genre-defying book that combines theatre and cinematic poetry. At the heart of the story is Milo, a playwright under a spell by the gods who finds himself caught between the realms of fiction and reality. Alongside a cast of eccentric characters, Milo and his entourage, Juno, Bacchus and Sonny feel the weight of the world to fulfill their obligations to the Universe, and to save the Meta Theatre. Fiction Inc. is a dramatic ode to the transformative power of words, a part poem, part play that doubles as a battle cry for the creative spirit. It's a tale of defiance, where the protagonists-Milo, Juno, Bacchus and Sonny-lead a poetic rebellion against the ordinary, igniting the incandescent streets of Bairro Alto with their midnight monologues and storybook imagination. Fiction Inc. textures and condenses a narrative so potent, it could only be described as a cult classic in the making. This is where art fights back, where words are the weapon, and the stage is the battleground. It doesn't just speak to you; it roars with the collective voice of a generation ready to set the world on fire. Fiction inc. explores themes of creativity, rebellion, and the power of imagination, making it a manifesto for anyone who dares to be extraordinary. It is a must-have for readers across generations everywhere.
