Rainbow and the sun

-Roko Zaper

NOTES: This storybook was inspired by a documentary on the life of a Polish nobleman, Sebastián Berzeviczy, the alleged blood relative of Andre Benesz. My story follows Andre as he is told the tale of his relative by a mysterious old man. It is however just part of the story, as many years later Sebastián's daughter and her husband were hunted and murdered by Spanish spies. Only their son survived. With this as background, I wanted to examine our contemporary amnesia for the sacrifices and love that made our lives possible. "If the invisible wall between us will be crumbled by the killer wind of hurricane maybe we can see the other side of the rainbow." Chidi Okoya

"But his eyes kept on darting across the table, where they locked with

those of Umina, the daughter of the Sun King. They were a brilliant

blue which seemed to glow in the firelight. Sebastián did not want to

offend his host and yet he could not look away."
