At the center of the worst mass shooting in US history is a black hole. Why did a wealthy, white middle-aged man who liked guns and gambling and once worked for the U.S. government cause this public tragedy? Set over three days in 2017, a small group of journalists is tasked with witnessing and making sense of senseless mass violence as the truth-telling structure collapses. They struggle with malleable facts, disinformation, and conspiracy theories; they are lured by and resist the increasingly popular notion of a hallucinatory mirror world, the sense that important truths are hidden.

Story
Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions is a satirical novella by the English schoolmaster and clergyman Edwin Abbott Abbott. The story describes a two-dimensional world occupied by geometric figures, where of women are simple line-segments, while men are polygons with various numbers of sides. Written pseudonymous by "A Square", the book used the fictional two-dimensional world of Flatland to comment on the hierarchy of Victorian culture, but the novella's more enduring contribution is its examination of dimensions.

Yusuf Karamak ist nur dem Namen nach Türke, ihn verbindet nichts mit dem Land seiner Eltern. Nicht einmal die Sprache versteht er. Warum ein Erbe, ein Papagei, ein Birnbaum und ein Jugendfreund seiner Ehefrau trotzdem dazu führen, dass er sich ein Hotel in Side andrehen lässt, einen Esel kauft und beinah auf einen Kangal pinkelt ... nun, kauft das Buch und findet es heraus. Aber Vorsicht, für Lachflashs bin ich nicht verantwortlich.

Set in contemporary Taipei, Taiwan, this darkly ironic satire challenges current, dominant American “woke” academic thought regarding memory, sex, race, and desire.
