About this ebook

Imagine a world where everything thinks.Not just jaded cats and overexcited dogs. No. EVERYTHING.The cloud above your head, grumbling because it has to rain—again—on some open-air festival.The armchair that sighs every time someone sits down without so much as a «hello.»The key, fed up with being forgotten in a coat pocket that never sees the light of day.

In this whimsical universe, inanimate objects are anything but inanimate.

They have rich inner lives, neuroses, hopes, and career ambitions (some cutlery dream of making it to a Michelin-starred restaurant).

Some even have a vague yet assertive sense of sexuality—

the toaster and the kettle? It’s… complicated.

And the animals? Even worse.The eagle thinks he’s a philosopher.

The cat writes haikus in his head.The pigeon campaigns against statues.Even the earthworms hold union meetings in the basement.

This concept invites you to shift your perspective:Forget the human at the center of everything.You’re invited to step into the skin (or the metal, or the bark) of those «others» we never truly notice.An immersion filled with sarcasm, emotion, tiny personal dramas, and grand absurd causes.

Because sometimes, the world as seen by an existentialist plastic bag is far more fascinating than that of a rushed businessman.
