Description

In this installment of Gonçalo M. Tavares's acclaimed "Kingdom" series, Joseph Walser's life is defined by a series of peculiar and rigid routines, from his daily humiliations at a factory to the meticulous upkeep of an extraordinary collection. The centerpiece of his existence is the operation of a mysterious machine within the factory walls, a task that seems to hold profound significance. However, this carefully constructed order is shattered when an invading army occupies his city, plunging Walser into a maelstrom of political turmoil, personal strife, and an inevitable, devastating encounter with the very machine that has governed his life.
