SYNOPSIS

ONE EXCEPTIONAL MIND

CHARLES KOCIAN

THEME

The Role of Reason in Human Species Evolution.

PLOT

A conflict between heroes and villains.

The heroes decide to write Ronald’s book on objective philosophy, symbolized by a granite metaphysical tetrahedron. They hold nine philosophical meetings to write it as a tool for a global self-educational movement led by eagles.

The villains try to stop them through murder, nuclear Armageddon, and even a pandemic. Their goal is to control mankind and reduce its numbers. The clash is clear. The heroes fight with mental clarity; the villains act through fallacies. The villains chase fake self-esteem; the heroes seek the real one.

Many plots intertwine: the philosophical meetings alongside the tetrahedron; the European Football Cup; the 2018 World Cup in Russia; skydiving, love, gods and men, history and politics, intelligence services, hackers, a secret society, the pandemic, and the 2020 U.S. elections.

Surprising ending demands reader’s decision. The metaphysical tetrahedron integrates the story and objective philosophy.

EPILOGUE

A sailing trip to a secret island asks the reader where they would place their tetrahedron.

Next, a poem that summarizes the story.

Ronald and Alexandre were

two champions of the mind,

great, brave heroes they were,

choosing reason everywhere.

A difficult game they played

when these two philosophized,

but what they never suspected

was the swamp they had entered.

III

It was a poisonous swamp

where their minds sank and sank,

and when they wanted to escape,

more and more they sank away.

The smartest of the two,

in heroic, great manoeuvre,

knew just what he had to do:

to look through a thousand books.

Oh! The book he was looking for

had never been written before,

so, in solemn compromise,

he took an oath to write.

But, when he was starting it,

a mafia found it,

and to prevent it,

they simply killed him.

VII

At his funeral, his best friend

decided on revenge.

Two others joined to help,

and they wrote it to the end.

Your magic tetrahedron awaits… discover why.
