Neka bude svjetlost

Neka bude svjetlost

Rupert Morgan

The British Rupert Morgan claims in this novel that on the other side of the Sun there is a planet identical to Earth and that there live people just like us - only a little crazier. In fact, the people of the United States of Atlantis are totally unhinge

The novel follows the story of a futuristic world where corporations and technology dominate people's lives. The main character is a scientist working on a revolutionary project - the creation of an artificial energy source that could permanently solve the world's energy problems. This "light source" is supposed to bring prosperity to humanity, but soon it is discovered that its consequences are not what they seemed at the beginning.

As the project progresses, the scientist faces moral dilemmas, political pressures, and environmental disasters that result from excessive human greed and disregard for natural limits. Morgan humorously shows how the greed and short-sightedness of the corporate world can threaten the survival of the planet.

Morgan's novel calls for reflection on humanity's responsibility towards nature and technology. In a humorous tone, it sends a serious message about the need for sustainable development and a balance between progress and the preservation of the planet.
