The Philosophy of Soup is a satirical, post-modern, playful labyrinth that uses language, character and the plot-elements of a murder mystery as a foundation for musical and poetic juxtapositions where the line between crime and art, reality and illusion, blur beyond recognition. The narrative is a lyrical tango between the absurd and the profound. Clues appear in the form of haikus and stray sonnets etched in steam on foggy mirrors. Every attempt to pin down a logical sequence is met with another transformation of the investigation into an endless waltz through meaning, form, and genre. Passages of detective jargon collide with lush, baroque language, heightening the sense that reality is unraveling with every turn of the page. While the "murder" itself becomes an ungraspable myth as each suspect offers cryptic clues in verses, jazz improvisations, or operatic interludes, the book itself is a device to probe deeper questions about the nature of storytelling, truth, and the beauty found in unresolved mystery.
