Produktbeschreibung

The banana is rotting. So is Gerd. In a sun-dappled French kitchen, a fruit fly named Gerd lands on a decomposing banana peel and has an existential crisis. With approximately six hours left in his brief, buzzing existence, he contemplates the cosmic joke of being born an insect in a universe that clearly prefers mammals. Why bother? What's the point? Is there a grand plan, or is everyone just making it up as they go? As Gerd navigates treacherous countertops, philosophical discussions with a cynical roach, and the existential threat of a swatter-wielding human, he grapples with questions far bigger than his three-millimeter frame.

This absurdist novella is a darkly comic meditation on purpose, futility, and the search for meaning in a universe that might not care whether you exist at all. Through Gerd's miniature perspective, we're invited to consider our own place in the grand scheme - and whether any of it matters when you're just a speck on someone's fruit bowl.

GERD combines the existential dread of Franz Kafka with the absurdist humor of Samuel Beckett, set in the miniature worlds of Stuart Little.
