Jupiter's Wrath

The power of Jupiter’s thunderbolt, capable of destroying institutions is shown in the ‘Planet of the Apes’ scenario of a submerged library. Fortunately for this book, it is now preserved in the State Library of Victoria, the stately building still standing in the background.
This first blog references the first epigraph, although it doesn’t suggest the theme, ‘The Writer as Servant to the Story’ is a lesson in blind faith, having written seven eighths of the book without knowing the ending. The revelation was a very emotional experience, and the conclusion deeply satisfying.
The second epigraph, ‘The Universe is sustained of its own accord and knowing of itself’, touches on elements of the story explored in the chapter ‘Something in the Void’. It is well postulated that our human intellect may be the only way the universe is aware of its existence, save for some unknown present, past or future intelligence.
The theory of quantum entanglement at the sub-atomic level, however, suggests that connectivity may be a reckoning of reactive responses between elements that are instant across vast distances where space and time are not relevant, suggesting an underlying awareness of existence.
Fiction and story in Jupiter weaves science and creation with a very human plot, ever attempting to shake off its humble beginnings, reserving judgement until the very end.
