Dit is onmiskenbaar het boek van een schrijver die zich al meer dan een halve eeuw, als dichter, antropoloog, en filosoof, bezighoudt - maar zonder enige vorderingen, vooralsnog met de diepste problemen van de menselijke existentie. De ontologieën die de figuren in dit boek in de mond gelegd worden, geven een getrouw beeld van de aanzetten tot een wereldbeeld waarmee de auteur zelf worstelt - vgl. de duistere leerdichten van Parmenides en Empedocles. Alle details zijn uiteraard gebaseerd op eigen veldwerk: Noordafrikaanse volksislam, Zambiaanse genezingsculten, trekarbeid vanuit Guinee-Bissau, liefdesperikelen van de Pakistaanse elite, genderoorlog in het West-Azië, rechtspleging in het land Nod, waarheidsclaims op de Saturnus-satelliet Callisto, voortplantingsrelaties op het ver geëvolueerde Eiermand en de wereld beschreven in het verhaal ’Buitenaardse Liefde’. Ook de biografie van de plastisch chirurg Sabatiël Eberhardt (in ’Gietnaden’) berust op de meest authentieke bronnen.
