Troglodytes Watch

$1914


Description

This is a satirical fairytale for the 21st century. Troglodytes Watch is the Winter Wren, a direct descendant of the dinosaurs. It survived the calamitous upheaval caused by the meteorite perhaps because it was as it still is: a diminutive, secretive and watchful spirit. The substance of this tale begins with three ancestors who escape from a tribe of headhunters in Borneo around 700 B.C. and ends with some of their descendants on a nuclear waste dump island in the northwest Pacific Ocean where they are prepared to wait out the next evolution-changing, life-arresting calamitous upheaval. The foibles, frolics and conflicts of the various peoples are witnessed, narrated, and influenced by the spirit of Troglodytes. This tale is infused with some literary, some facetious and some deliciously infuriating commentary. The figures are drawn by the writer and the foreign words and expressions should be no burden to the Reader. Relax, read and enjoy the book.
