The Ballad Of A Story Keeper is the sequel collection of APUJAN’s homage to the sci-fi world, those of The Wizard of OZ and Alice in Wonderland, to the fantasy stories and the many literary allusions from the previous collections.
Well known for using literary allusions, Apu Jan reinterpreted the codes of a modern fairy tale and created through the collection the storytelling about APUJAN’s fantasy imaginary: another story about dreams, about community information, and about the overhead world.
