He works as an American Professor of International Law in Beijing, travels the world for the UN Parliamentary Assembly campaign working closely with the campaign’s director Andreas Sarkozy, makes continuous entries in his Blog Journal containing his reflections, life and his poetry, begins to research and co-write a book with his Nobel Prize winning friend Gunther Gross on the rise and character of World Literature and then in a fit of depression unsuccessfully attempts suicide. Meanwhile Sartorius approaches a crisis in his life as he turns fifty, fighting off alcoholism, ageing, loss of faith, feelings of life’s futility and failure, and alienation from his son in the years following his unhappy divorce. Andreas works with Public Relations Spinmaster Julian Jung, Isis, Russian billionaire Alexander Abromovich Medvedev and Sartorius’ son Jack on the London campaign steering committee to plan and organize the worldwide Global Appeal, and makes continued Blog journal entries on his private and personal life.

Eva makes continuous entries to her Blog Journal giving accounts of her search for love as a woman, her love affairs and life. The Committee’s headquarters are relocated to London to pursue the global campaign and its director Andreas Sarkozy quickly begins a love affair with Eva Strong, an attractive single-mother on the Committee’s London staff. Working in the style of the Band 8 and Band Aid campaigns of U2’s Bono and Sir Bob Geldof they pressure the governments of the world to extend the international democratic concept proven in the European Parliament to the global level of the United Nations.

When Robert Sartorius, leader of the worldwide Committee for a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly (UNPA) presses his campaign proposal in New York on his old friend the UN Secretary-General and is rebuffed due to the hostile pressure of the conservative American administration, the Committee resolves to fight back by launching a “People Power” Global Appeal campaign and telethon spearheaded by celebrity rock superstars Isis and Osiris and former UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali to mobilize global public support and pressure.
