O astronauta
Uma viagem pelo espaço sideral e pela mente de um homem em busca de redenção: O Astronauta inspirou o filme original da Netflix. "Um livro de estreia audacioso e comovente" – San Francisco Chronicle Quando Jakub Procházka decide abandonar a vida pacata de professor e se tornar astronauta, sua expectativa era embarcar em uma viagem arriscada para coletar uma misteriosa poeira cósmica surgida entre Vênus e a Terra e voltar para casa. São e salvo. Quando essa missão espacial não acontece como o planejado, Jakub passa a se sentir insuportavelmente solitário — até fazer amizade com um estranho alienígena. Deixando o leitor na dúvida entre o que é alucinação e o que é realidade, essa dupla inusitada trava conversas profundas sobre temas diversos, de questões existenciais à maravilha do bacon. Unindo drama, humor e personagens complexos — além de ter como plano de fundo a história política da República Tcheca —, esta ficção científica original e contemporânea nos leva não só a uma viagem interplanetária de tirar o fôlego, mas também ao momento único de um homem que busca se reconciliar consigo mesmo, com seu passado e com sua nação.
