Le Dernier Homme (The Last Man) is an 1805 Epic Science Fantasy novel in the form of a Prose Poem by Jean-Baptiste Cousin de Grainville which is considered the first modern speculative fiction to depict the end of the world.Currently there exists two English versions of the novel, a poorly translated 1806 version titled Omegarus and Syderia, a Romance in Futurity and then a second translation by I. F. Clarke and M. Clarke published in 2003.The story tells the tale of Omegarus, the son of the king of Europe and the last child born in a future where the earth is dying and humanity is loosing the ability to reproduce. Omegarus is then encouraged by the spirit of the earth to travel to Brazil to seek out his future wife, the last fertile woman.Not to be confused with Mary Shelley’s The Last Man or Y: The Last Man. | |

Jerkass Gods | |
| Le Dernier Homme / int_73f7975f | comment |
Jerkass Gods: One can’t help but get that feeling by what the biblical God demands of Omegarus, not to mention the Sadistic Choice he gives Adam. | |

Sadistic Choice | |
| Le Dernier Homme / int_babc974 | comment |
Sadistic Choice: Adam is given the choice by an angel named Ithuriel to return to earth to persuade Omergus to make the greatest sacrifice to leave Syderia and keep from prolonging mankind’s existence which god has decided must end, in exchange he will be delivered from guarding the gates of hell where he watches his descendants enter for their sins, but if he doesn’t he will go back to his torture. | |

Nested Story | |
| Le Dernier Homme / int_bb0b2739 | comment |
Nested Story: The framing narrative is told to an unnamed narrator by a spirit, the second narrative within the first one is Omegarus telling Adam about his past and sometimes retelling stories within the second narrative that other characters told Omegarus, making a third narrative. | |
