A work of fiction that examines the human condition through the phenomenon of existential choices. The narrative, which follows the journey of Eirik, a renowned artificial intelligence researcher, confronts the reader with a fundamental question: who would we be if we had chosen different paths?
Life is structured as a network of interconnected roads where each fork represents both the creation of one reality and the elimination of others. The human experience is distinguished not only by the ability to decide, but by the awareness of abandoned alternatives that remain part of our identity.
Each decision made establishes not only what we are, but also defines, by opposition, what we ceased to be. We advance along these existential roads discovering unexpected landscapes, while carrying with us the memory of paths not taken. Human freedom operates between the concrete reality of choices made and the abstract realm of unrealized possibilities.
This philosophical narrative invites the reader to reflect on discarded alternatives, not as an exercise in regret, but as recognition of the complexity that constitutes us. Maturity lies in integrating these absences into our identity.
For everyone who has pondered the road not taken and the life that might have followed.
