“Nova Express begins with the blistering Last Words of the mysterious Hassan i Sabbah because time is running out: the book is not just a call-to-arms against those who brought us Hiroshima and Nagasaki, mentioned several times, but a manifesto for global resistance against the 1 percent who run our planet like an alien colony.

“After all, if we stop to think, the stars have been fleeing from us from the very beginning. Every night they're further away, though they give the impression of being in the same place.
But we shouldn't feel lonely as a result.

As long as there's a fire there will be a story waiting to be told. And then we'll open our mouths wide and swallow all that we can of the night.
And, for the first time, the same song will begin.”
― Bellas artes
