KAREL from the other world

di Marian Werner (Autore)

Troubador Publishing, 2026

What happens to us after we die? Some prefer to avoid asking the question, some think they have a reassuring answer, some are still pondering the possibilities. Some distinguished scientists think that nothing happens: we simply disappear. Marian Werner never thought that she would write a book about the afterlife but married a man who helped her to confront the question and answer it to her own satisfaction. Karel Werner escaped from communist Czechoslovakia in 1968. As an expert in Indian philosophy and religion he had been on the threshold of a brilliant career at Olomouc University when the putsch of 1948 blocked it. He came to London on an invitation from the Buddhist Society UK to lecture at their summer ·school in 1968, and he and Marian met at the school the following year and married in 1970. Throughout the fifty years they were together, Karel and Marian promised each other that whoever departed this life first would try to connect with the one left behind. Karel died on 26 November 2019. Almost immediately some unexpected things started happening. Friends of the couple have been witnesses to some, including a letter that disappeared and reappeared, and noises emitted by their smart meter. Readers will form their own opinions.
