Cometa - Last Queen of Sheba: a Novel of the New Era
Antonio Dasilva
Cometa-Last... is fiction work where life in its entire complexity (mystery as many people would rather say) is the basis for a world of illusion where different dimensions rub shoulders. It's a bit like some classics: "Don Quijote de la Mancha", "Divina Comedia"...!Time appears unreal. Dreams could be more real than the so called reality! Pablo, the Portuguese master from Sorbonne Universitatis in his forties is a modern " Quijote" who likes a confrontation with the Establishment. He travels from Paris to London, late 1980's and meets Missu another Portuguese misfit, a young, orphan posh who from London's rat-race had been already pulled back to her roots in by Pablo's "brother" Rod. Rod - Rodrigo O'Sulivan - had come to London as a refugee from Salazar's compulsory army. In London he helped his spinster auntie to run O'Sulivan's Lettings. From her he had a fresh account of his uncle who was killed by IRA in Brazil and his father who he hardly could remember. Pablo and Missu got acquainted with charismatic, Mozambican Palomita . Quixote, like Pablo and his "brother" Rod, comes from AquaeFlaviae. Around 2000, at "Pablo's" all seem inspired to write. Those writings collected by Palomita were discovered at Ely's loft by Gisela, Palomita's granddaughter. Then, late 2030's, Gisela's inspiration couldn't be stopped - it was the past calling her to future along a safe path, jumping from green planet Earth to the ethereal dimensions.(on page IX (Synopsis) where it reads 1941, please, read 2041. Actually, the chronological set starts like this: In 2042 Gisela travels to Souhern Africa and tells her friend Cecilia about he book she had published in London one year before)
