In Terra Nova, power is a game of noise. The loud survive, the cruel thrive, and the meek are trampled underfoot. Among the scheming predators and swaggering fools, Alkebulan; a quiet monkey has been invisible for as long as anyone can remember.
But Terra Nova remembers nothing. When Alkebulan disappears, leaving behind a crude book filled with the secret history of their survival, those who mocked and overlooked him are forced to confront a harrowing truth; they owe their lives to a creature they barely noticed. Every boast, every careless triumph, every narrow escape was paid for by the smallest one among them.
Monkey Business is a bleak, unsettling fable about the small, invisible lives sacrificed for the comfort of the unworthy. It is a story about the violence of indifference, the weight of forgotten debts, and the bitter truth that those we ignore rarely disappear. They endure.
