| Resumen: |
Iridio Ennui vs The Boltzmann Brains is a novel with equations. Mario Daniel Martín uses them to tell the story of the main character, a man with an extraordinary incapacity to come to terms with the world around him.
In the second half of the 22nd century, the catastrophes caused by climate change have far exceeded the direst predictions: a perennial economic crisis throughout the world, recurrent thermal waves, millions of refugees caused by rising sea levels, and the extinction of the most common animals. Iridio Geyser Pérezman Ennui, anorgasmic, cryptorchidic, synaesthetic and aromantic, has three obsessions: transcendental numbers, the real cause of the dinosaurs’ extinction, and finding the centre of the universe where the Big Bang originated. Iridio was raised by robotic nurses and instructors, who taught him that there is an equation for everything. Convinced of this, he confronts the post-creationist authorities of his university, the various police forces of the People’s Free-Market Republic of Ozeania, and the Reich-behaviourist psychometrists who attempt to normalise him, raising his indexes of genital eudaemonia. |
