Hi everyone,
I'd like to share a writing project of mine called The Odessia. It is an exploration of philosophy, economics, self-knowledge, child-rearing, feminism, and all manner of interpersonal relationships.
The heroine of the story is a young woman called Odessa, who travels from place to place by means of magical bridges. In each locale she encounters individuals or societies who embody or which have adopted as supreme values certain principles. The narrative is driven mostly by Socratic dialogue: Odessa is genuinely curious and her relentless questioning (à la The Little Prince) either generates conflict or resolves it.
If you'd like to read it, all the chapters that have been written to date (15 so far) can be downloaded in a single Google Document.
Alternatively, I am recording readings on YouTube.
Please let me know what you think, I'm very open to feedback!
Also, I'd love to collaborate with other liberty-minded artists.
