Europe, where are you going?

What is the future of Europe? This question has never been more urgent than it is today. Have the warmongers who believe that weapons can solve problems forgotten that the two world wars of the 20th century utterly devastated our continent? This unique novel suggests a possible path to peace. The author invites us on a journey through time. We begin at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, where paintings speak at night, and pass through a horrific catastrophe at the end of the 21st century, arriving in 17th-century Amsterdam, at Rembrandt’s house. We witness the creation of his masterpieces, the joys and sorrows of his life, and even that pivotal moment when the painter encounters and understands a hidden spiritual current that connects the wisdom of the East with European science. In the midst of the Thirty Years’ War, a novel humanism is actually taking shape, one that may lead Europe toward lasting peace and brotherhood. Can the beautiful Phoenician princess abducted on the back of a bull help us understand that we are one great human family?
