Beschreibung

<p><b>From the renowned creator of </b><i><b>The Electric State, </b></i><b>now a major Netflix movie, Simon Stålenhag returns with a new work of retro-futuristic dystopia set in the mysterious environs of an abandoned Swedish military facility. An epic, beautifully illustrated science fiction story for fans of </b><i><b>Annihilation</b></i><b> and </b><i><b>Station Eleven.</b></i><br><br>Beginning in 2024, yet set largely during the early 2000s, <i>Sunset at Zero Point</i> unfolds on a secluded Swedish island, home to a secret weapons lab that has been off-limits for years. Two young men, stuck in both the past and each other's orbit, set out to explore the forbidden zone together.<br><br>Set against the backdrop of Stålenhag's native Sweden and based on an imagined version of Mälaröarna, outside of Stockholm, <i>Sunset at Zero Point</i> juxtaposes giant futuristic machines with the inner turmoil of characters facing a social dystopia, crafting a narrative that is both visually stunning and emotionally resonant.<br><br>In this, his most intimate work to date, Stålenhag's masterful storytelling and hyper-realistic art reveals not only an otherworldly alternate history, but also a poignant and profound exploration of nostalgia and enduring connection. Delving into themes of masculinity, friendship and sexuality, this is a powerful queer science fiction tale that will stay with readers long after they turn the final page.</p>
