In one ejaculation, there are between 200 to 400 million sperm cells.
Spring of 1969: Ian, a guitar player who is immersed in occultism and Led Zeppelin songs, is heartbroken because his girlfriend left him. In a gray, lonely routine, he meets Jeanette, a dreamer who is fascinated by dead languages. That night, they sleep together.
From 200 to 400 million cases, the history of this family is told through time and music, by the voice of the eighteen children that might have resulted from this fertilization, each chapter situated in a different era, a different life, a different story.

23 illustrators collaborated in creating a visual complement to the novel "Man Will Never Know Any of This" - a graphic novel entitled "Extras Book" or "Emet", the Truth. This accessory follows the novel's reading and has several, carefully thought out, additional elements to enrich and grace the plot: a family tree that allows the reader to better understand Pollock's Family structure; 58 illustrations by 23 illustrators, collaborating from all different continents, countries and cultures, in which each character's universe is recreated and interpreted through symbols, visual references and spaces; the recreation of a Pollock's family photo album, frequently referenced by the narrators; Lizz Moon's retrospective artistic work and a CD that recreates the mythical album "Evergreen Queen" by the band Ouranos released in 1969, from the creative mind's of Mike Ghost and Fernando Matias.
