One of the most famous novels by French writer Michel Houellebecq has been attracting constant interest from readers around the world for almost two decades. The novel cannot be called a story in the usual sense (and the author does not consider himself a "storyteller"), the narrative seems to be woven from multiple threads. Here you can find the eternal plot of love, signs of the present (show business, totalitarian sects), and a fantastic and frighteningly convincing picture of the future, where there are neohumans - direct cloned descendants of modern humans, "looking at the world with understanding, but without participation", unaware of pain and suffering, whose lives are prosperous but somehow unbearable. This telebridge between the present and the future is depicted with such cinematographic precision that it is staggering and mesmerizing, overturning established notions of the structure of the world and society, possibly even blurring the line between reality and fiction.
