Faust 2.0

di Pier Maria Colombo (Autore)

Seagull Editions, 2026

In 1967, Pete Cage sold his soul for rock-and-roll immortality. Fifty years later, he's dying in a sterile L.A. hospital, and he can't even remember the Devil's name. Pete Cage is a legend who has outlived his own desire for fame. Over decades of genre-shifts, drug-fueled reinventions, and corporate exploitation, he has reached a state of "psychological bankruptcy." He doesn't want redemption, he doesn't want success, and he certainly doesn't believe in the currency of the deal he made as a teenager. But the Devil hasn't forgotten. For the Prince of Darkness, Pete Cage isn't a prize—he's a messy file. Now a stressed-out Auditor in a bespoke suit, the Devil is facing the ultimate professional horror: irrelevance. If the debtor doesn't believe in the stakes, the soul simply dissipates, leaving a zero on the metaphysical ledger. Refusing to accept a null contract, the Auditor resurrects Pete for one final, frantic audit. But as they navigate the neon-soaked rot of the Los Angeles music scene, they discover a terrifying truth: Black Sun Records has already pre-damned Pete with legal clauses and "post-mortal" liens more ruthless than anything found in the Pit. A surreal, dark comedy about the death of the soul in the age of the algorithm, Faust 2.0 is a race against oblivion where the ultimate act of rebellion isn't a scream—it's an existential shrug.
