Abstract

Actor Keanu Reeves and writer China Miéville have collaborated on a tie-in novel for Reeves' comic book series, BRZRKR. Miéville, a renowned speculative fiction writer with communist beliefs, surprised many with this collaboration. The novel, titled The Book of Elsewhere, expands on the comic's universe and showcases Miéville's unique storytelling. Despite their different backgrounds, the duo has created a work that combines their talents and explores themes of immortality and the desire to live. Miéville's struggles with depression have influenced his writing, making the protagonist's longing for mortality a metaphor for the will to live. [Extracted from the article]
