Hitler dreamed of a thousand-year Reich. If the National Socialists had realized their dream, what would the “post-fascist” society look a thousand years later? After all, already in the 20th century the inmates of Auschwitz had lost their human status and were debased to the level of animals, their body parts used to fulfill the consumer needs of the 'higher race.' The result? In a thousand years the inferior race has transformed into human-like animals called stors.
At the start of this story (‘Masha, or the Fourth Reich’), the main character is a journalist of an official newspaper; later he gradually joins with a group who can no longer abide the horrifying legacy of the past. Little by little his conscience awakes. The plot revolves around the main character and what happens when he falls in love with a she-stor Masha.
