    While the stories that make up Gods Brains suggest that the skies of the future will certainly not be pure blue, through their ironic edge and secular bite, they suggest that there are always new energies to be found from the setbacks and the sinking Titanics of our lives - that courage remains THE vital currency.The genre-defying fabrications that unfold between the covers of Gods Brains describe the great diversity that embodies the human condition, and in fragmentary ways, they contribute to the notion of existence as converging physical and mental landscapes - both the ones we experience and the ones that are invisible to our common sense - suggesting a decisive and overall interweaving of realities.These twenty-nine stories explore the growing certainty that much of what we take for granted is slipping. With certainties melting away, and with the very idea of individual will becoming acknowledged as hanging by a precarious thread, the tendency grows for social-media-savvy clans and cells, often fundamentalist, restrictive and superstitious in nature, to attract adherents - disappointing signs of closure in an opening and ever-more globalised world.In some of these pieces, beliefs and habits are scrutinised and sometimes taken to task. One of the most challenging topics of our existential lives as human beings, both blessed and condemned as we are with consciousness - of life having a finite end with no transfers - is dealt with as an issue of courage - the courage to be fully here without the need for a there.At the core of Gods Brains is found the primacy of human morality and the belief that despite the relativities of diversity, there lies ahead the likelihood of a converging landscape of genuine humanism - of human courage motivating the acts of the multitude.
