Nero and the Social Agreement

In the whimsical land of Nutville, a young boy named Nero embarks on a journey that defies the conventional boundaries of logic and reason. Nero and the Social Agreement follows the adventures of Nero, his friend Nora, and her dog Noodles, as they navigate a world where the quest for the fabled Nutless Forest leads to an unexpected revelation. The trio’s exploration challenges the very essence of their community’s identity, sparking a profound transformation among the Nutvillers.

John Vlachos is an experimental personality, ever restless to explore his world. Vlachos is originally an artist and art instructor in Toronto, Canada, having graduated from Ocad University, where he acquired his Bachelor's of Fine Arts. He also tried his hand at writing and produced this unusual children’s book Nero in the Land of Nut. The play on words makes the story a comedy and a tragedy all in one.
