Welcome to The Empathizer Part 1
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN POE'S MASQUE BECOMES A PROGRESSIVE FEVER DREAM?
A Zionist defector returns to New California to bury his parents. ANTIFA forces him into a Hasidic costume for a rapper-politician's pandemic masquerade. The empathy machine in the basement harvests human brains. The party ends badly.
This is dystopian satire — where "classical liberal" means fascist, empathy requires lobotomy, and the only sane person is the one everyone calls crazy.
PART 1: THE MASQUERADE (AVAILABLE NOW)
14 episodes. Based on Poe's "The Masque of the Red Death." Progressive elites party while plague ravages the poor. Episodes 1-3 are free — see if this brand of dark comedy lands for you.
THIS IS ONLY HALF THE STORY
The Empathizer is a two-part novel. Season 1 is the left. Season 2 is the right.
In Part 2 — based on Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland — our narrator escapes to the conservative Eastern states and falls down a very different rabbit hole. The billionaire rapper's masquerade becomes a white-supremacist Wonderland. Same sharp teeth, new target.
Part 2 audio is in production.
