"Więcej jest rzeczy na ziemi i w niebie, niż się ich śniło waszym filozofom". Wychodząc z tego założenia, postanowiliśmy opisać część z tych rzeczy, które się nikomu nie przyśniły. Ani filozofom, ani szlifierzom, ani nawet zdunom. Snując wątek hippiczno-botaniczny, postanowiliśmy powołać do życia nowy kierunek literacki, czyli "realizm paniczny". Kto gustuje w historiach kryminalnych, będzie usatysfakcjonowany, ponieważ nawet po zakończeniu nie wiadomo do końca, dlaczego takie zdumiewające wydarzenia były treścią tej opowieści. Licząc na miliony czytelników, zapewniamy, że chodziło nam wyłącznie o nagrody literackie, a nie tani poklask. Artur Andrus dziennikarz, radiowiec, satyryk, autor i wykonawca piosenek, głównie kabaretowych. Motto, którym się kieruje w swoim życiu, brzmi: Każdy powinien mieć motto, którym się kieruje w swoim życiu i dobrze, żeby ono brzmiało. Wojciech Zimiński - scenarzysta, dziennikarz, satyryk, prowadzący "Szkło kontaktowe" w TVN24, chwilami autor rysunków satyrycznych, nie lubi ryb (jeść, oglądać je lubi).

The state of the working class in the early 20th century caused significant changes in the left-wing political parties. The Liberal Party, which enjoyed the support of the working class, was threatened by the Party of Labor and trade unions that were in the forefront of the socialist and communist movement. In this novel, we are talking about a great deal of sympathy for the poorest workers who lost their jobs due to automation, recession and mass layoffs. The use of taxes on foreign trade to protect the British industry is a major political issue in this history.
