Star (Psi Cassiopeia)

A marvelous story of one of the worlds of space, unique nature, customs, travel, Star literature, poems and comedies The blue sun had already lost itself behind the sunset mountains. The red sun also leans towards this point, tomb of all the lights of the heavens. For this land, for these places always streaming with light, it was almost night, but a soft, tropical and shimmering night. If you roll your eyes, perhaps you will see on the side of the constellation Cassiopeia, a strange sparkle ... the planet Star ... Here is the first real space opera, fallen into oblivion and rediscovered by Raymond Queneau, a total book which presents the entire Starian universe: its star system, its flora and fauna, its satellites, its ancient history and that of its civilizations, ravaged by a form of plague and by fanatic slaughterers. Thanks to the invention of the abare, a spaceship, and under the leadership of Ramzuel, the Stariens then left the home planet for its satellites. From their exploration arose the re-colonization of Star led by the Neo-Starians and the journey of a Tassulian (inhabitant of one of Star's satellites) in the city of Tasbar. The whole is interspersed with pieces from Starian literature which form a unique extraterrestrial poetic and theatrical ensemble. The story of a planet on which four suns shine, of its five satellites and their inhabitants, of vessels traveling between these stars, of civilizations which are born, develop, die, reborn, founding an interplanetary federation and creating a culture and extra-terrestrial literature. Star or ψ by Cassiopée is a strange, poetic and protean work, a dreamlike journey to a distant world.
