The Last Book is a beautifully illustrated encyclopedia told from the point of view of Noah Kaplan, the last human survivor of the destruction of Earth. Left alone on an alien ship, he writes a book to preserve the essence of humanity.

This book contains the myths we told, the dreams we chased, the beauty we created, and the things that made life worth living. These are not just notes - they are a tribute to who we were. Combining diary, encyclopedia, and art book, Hymn to Humanity is a celebration of the human spirit.

The story begins from explosion

It is not just a story about the end, it’s a love letter to everything that ever made us human.

A Manual for Remembering Humanity

A hybrid of cultural encyclopedia and personal journal The Last Book is a beautifully illustrated coffee table book blending storytelling, encyclopedic entries, and diary-style reflections. It follows Noah Kaplan, the last surviving Earthling, who escapes the destruction of Earth aboard an alien craft. Noah begins writing a record of everything humanity was. Its culture, achievements, absurdities, and beliefs. Part catharsis, part tribute, part time capsule, this is his way of preserving what it meant to be human.

Abodyinspace

In the vast silence of space, Noah’s memories become his only companions. Every brushstroke and sentence is a heartbeat of a vanished world as an attempt to capture the warmth of oceans, the laughter of strangers, and the quiet majesty of sunsets that no longer exist. His ship becomes a studio, where nostalgia transforms into art, and loneliness becomes creation.

As he writes, Noah isn’t just recalling humanity, he’s rebuilding it. Each page resurrects fragments of our collective soul: a melody hummed by a mother, a fragment of poetry whispered in the dark, a child’s drawing taped to a wall. In this cosmic isolation, he rediscovers what made us extraordinary, our capacity to dream, to create, to feel awe even in the face of extinction.

And though he floats light-years away from home, his work transcends survival. It becomes a declaration that beauty is stronger than oblivion. Noah’s voice carries through the void like a signal from a forgotten civilization.

What makes
The Last Book Special

An illustrated journey through the memory of mankind. Each chapter combines breathtaking art with reflections on what made life on Earth extraordinary.

Inside the Last Book:  Chapters to Explore

Tough times

Some days feel heavier than others. Alone, you start talking to yourself, not because you are losing your mind but because it is the only voice you hear. You remember the people who kept you grounded, the ones who made the hours pass faster. In their absence, you find strange ways to hold on, clinging to humor, to memory, to any small proof that you are still here.

Hindus

Buddhism began in India with Siddhartha Gautama, who sought to end human suffering through understanding and compassion. Teaching that desire and attachment keep people trapped in a cycle of rebirth, it offered a path to liberation through mindfulness and ethical living. Over centuries, Buddhism spread across Asia, shaping art, culture, and spiritual traditions.

Rising not yet shining

Mornings arrive whether we are ready or not. Eyes open, but the body lags behind, pulled down by dreams that cling like vines. The day waits impatiently at the window, and the mind lists its demands before the feet even touch the floor. Somewhere between sleep and movement, we remember the one ritual that might make it a bit more bearable.

Social and
antisocial media

We scroll through feeds on trains, in offices, anywhere a signal reaches. Some posts are genuine moments, others carefully staged for the version of life we want to show. It can be addictive, replacing conversation with quiet tapping. Social media can connect us, but it can just as easily pull us away from the world right in front of us.

Corporate snakes and ladders

The climb to the top is not always about skill. Offices hide their own game boards, where ladders appear as sudden promotions and snakes take the form of budget cuts, reassignments, and whispered decisions made behind closed doors. Those who survive learn to read the board, moving carefully while hoping the next roll does not send them sliding back to the start.

What people are saying about The Last Book

Preserving the Story
of What We Made

Behind the scenes
where luxury begins

Built like an artifact

Weight in your hands, detail under your fingertips. The cover’s design speaks before a single page is turned, as if it were made to survive the end and be found again.

Illustrated by hand

Every scene begins as pencil on paper, then comes alive through brush and colour. Each detail is placed with care, creating images as singular as the story being told.
