If you drink coffee, don't drink Black Gold Blend. Just one sip plunged Gregor into a kaleidoscopic world where he lost his memory, encountered a dung-smoking demon, transmogrified into the grotesque Hectic Norder, plummeted into the gullet of a talking tree, wandered through an inescapable labyrinth, met a man comprised of office paper, committed murder, leaped off a building...Well, at least he found the solution to our world's energy crisis - and you will, too, if you read Mandelbrot the Tree: A Fractal Story.
The title and inspiration for this work were derived from the mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot. His conception of the fractal informs the novel's avant-garde structure. The fractal's fundamental characteristic of self-similarity is the model of organization. The story branches from seven main offshoots into roots and rootlets. Many of the images intentionally repeat, but always in fresh contexts, to give the reader new perspective on old ideas.
