A sardonic science-fiction tale follows a reluctant public-relations agent, a reporter named Sam Kent, who becomes the human intermediary for invulnerable alien Monolithians intent on persuading humanity to adopt absolute pacifism. The aliens' enforced message and social control produce absurd, often darkly comic consequences as individuals and institutions strain under rules that ban choice and conflict. The narrative unfolds as daily, diary-like entries across a single month, mixing newsroom detail, bureaucratic encounters, and escalating social unrest while exploring themes of free will, conformity, and the unintended costs of imposed utopia.
