Adrian Solas

ADRIAN SOLAS explores the stories, myths, and cultural works that continue to shape our collective imagination. After studying languages, literature, and psychology, he moved through several fields — including research, industry, and audiovisual media — before choosing a life dedicated to writing and observing the world.

His books blend culture, psychology, anthropology, and contemporary storytelling to explore the major contradictions of human life.

With the Decoded series, Adrian Solas offers short and accessible readings of foundational myths and stories, revealing the invisible structures that still influence contemporary societies, popular culture, and human behavior.

He currently dedicates a trilogy to Homer and the Trojan cycle: The Odyssey Decoded, The Iliad Decoded, and The Fall of Troy Decoded.

Coming Soon

The Odyssey Decoded

A journey through one of the oldest stories ever told — and one of the most modern. Beneath Homer’s myth lies a map of the human experience that still shapes the way we tell stories today.

The Iliad Decoded

Homer explores the fragile line separating glory from destruction. Beneath the battles and heroic legends, The Iliad reveals a brutal world where honor, ego, and violence consume both individuals and civilizations.

The Odyssey Decoded

The fall of Troy is a story of deception, infiltration, and the birth of one of the most enduring symbols in human history: the Trojan Horse. Adrian Solas explores why the destruction of Troy still echoes through culture and collective imagination thousands of years later.

Surviving Success — When Everything Works but You…

"What if the real challenge was not success itself, but staying whole once things begin to work?"

From pop culture to ancient myths, from contemporary psychology to media trajectories, this book explores a question that crosses every era: how do we remain ourselves when everything around us starts accelerating?

Adrian Solas connects mythology, psychology, neuroscience, popular culture, and contemporary social behaviors to examine the contradictions that emerge when individuals confront ambition, identity, relationships, power, or success. Rather than offering self-help formulas, the series seeks to reveal the hidden dynamics already influencing our choices, fears, illusions, and transformations.
