About the book

Ein Krieg bricht aus, eine Finanzkatastrophe ereilt die Menschheit – und dann wird sie auch noch von einem Virus heimgesucht, das alle Frauen unfruchtbar macht. In dieser schweren Stunde landet eine kleine, bunt zusammengewürfelte Gruppe Schiffbrüchiger mit dem Kapitän Adolf von Kleist auf einer fiktiven Galápagos-Insel. Während die übrige Menschheit ausstirbt, wird hier ein neues Menschengeschlecht mit winzigen Gehirnen begründet. In Galápagos , gelesen von Martin Reinke, schaut der amerikanische Schriftsteller Kurt Vonnegut mit seinem unnachahmlich provokanten Humor auf das Ende unserer Welt – irrwitzig und wahnsinnig komisch.
