Publisher's Synopsis
Book Homo tempus received preface by Alysson R. Moutri the scientist who created brain organoids with a gene that belonged to Neanderthals.Alysson says: "Homo tempus is an invitation to reflect on how we are shaping the future of civilization. It reminds us not to ignore our ancestral knowledge of the world, sometimes hidden in symbolism that we might not fully comprehend.It also alerts about respecting our neurodiversity, often overlooked in modern days. Thus, this is not only a fantastic science fiction story but also a moment to pause and learn about human nature". This book tells the story of Wallace Vidal, a young librarian who, lost in his own existence, accidentally travels through time and is caught - in the future - by Neanderthals.Now, his objectives are to escape and to understand what caused our society to collapse, all while desperately trying to reverse his mistakes in this future that he doesn't understand. To do this, he needs to survive on a long journey, where he'll need to rely on the help of all those that he meets, be they Neanderthals or Sapiens. With a flowing narrative and fast-paced dialogues, Homo tempus is a futuristic dystopian novel that is based on the most recent paleontological studies. Ideas from contemporary philosophers and primitive symbolisms are used to portray the human learning cycles that are needed during life and the consequences that ignoring them brings, both for the individual and for society.
