Memoirs of an Illuminati is an introspective narrative that delves into the intricacies of power, solitude, and the quest for redemption. Through the journey of Elias von Aschenbach, heir to a lineage of occult elites, this novel takes you into a world where luxury and desolation coexist, where choices have devastating consequences, and where the search for meaning collides with the indifference of the world.
Elias von Aschenbach is a powerful man, yet profoundly alone. Born into a family of Illuminati, he sacrificed love, family, and humanity to serve the Grand Project, a plan to reshape the world according to the desires of the elite. Yet, as he approaches the end of his life, Elias is consumed by remorse and regret. His encounter with Liang, an indifferent and rough Chinese courier, shatters his certainties and forces him to confront a truth he has long suppressed.
Universal and Profound Themes
Power and its consequences: What remains when everything has been sacrificed for power?
Solitude and isolation: How does one live with choices that have cut them off from others?
Guilt and remorse: Can one redeem themselves after committing the irreparable?
The search for meaning: What is the true value of a life?
Rich and Evocative Writing
With a style that is both elegant and dark, Memoirs of an Illuminati transports you to a world where every detail matters. The luxurious descriptions of Elias's manor, the scenes of occult rituals, the moments of vulnerability of the protagonist-all are narrated with a precision that immerses you in the heart of the story.

Excerpt
Elias closed his eyes for the last time. His death was silent, almost peaceful, despite the violent convulsions and the terrible headache that preceded his demise. All in all, it was a brief expiration after such a life of crime. The Guanyin statuette, placed on the desk, watched over him no more than it did anyone else. It didn't matter: Elias had imagined it finally offering him the compassion he had never known how to give.
About the Author

Influenced from childhood by extensive travels around the world thanks to his father's career in the airline industry, he developed a spirit of adventure and a global perspective on human issues. His works, including Memoirs of an Illuminati, depict a post-Third World War world, ravaged yet resilient, where humanity explores new options to survive and evolve.
His stories are marked by reflections on cycles of power, historical traumas, and the search for meaning in a changing world. Inspired by prophecies and visions of civil war, Kergroach offers a perspective on the challenges and hopes of humanity.
