Biography: general; Gender studies: transsexuals & hermaphroditism; Gay & Lesbian studies

Zeno's homosexuality becomes a mirror reflecting the universal apprehension towards the unfamiliar and the unwanted, formidable adversaries that haunt the human experience. Zeno embarks on an introspective and outward journey, returning to his birthplace, the Americas, but this time exploring North America instead of his native South. The narrative eloquently weaves a circle, originating at birth and concluding in this ancestral homeland, Italy.

With each encounter and experience, Zeno peels back the layers of his identity, realising that being Zeno is the only possible antecedent for becoming Zeno. His cherished Dante, a guiding luminary, serves as both right and wrong in proclaiming the inseparability of Heaven and Hell. The paradoxical nature of Heaven and Hell underscores the richness of human existence, challenging preconceived notions and inviting contemplation on the intricate threads that weave the fabric of our spiritual journey. In embracing this paradox, Zeno discovers a profound truth

that within the inseparable unity of Heaven and Hell lies the essence of a transformative and enlightening pilgrimage.

This project masterfully merges literary, philosophical, and historical facets with Esky's personal saga, presenting a contemporary Divine Comedy rooted in real-life tribulations. The narrative intertwines diverse styles and traditions, mirroring the Commedia's fusion of classical and modern elements, drawing on literature, philosophy, history, and esoteric doctrines.
