About This Book

In a future society where citizens rely on anesthesia to escape reality, a man named Greg struggles with the consequences of prolonged consciousness. He is desperate to prevent Pat, a woman who has rejected their anesthetic lifestyle, from embarking on a dangerous journey to Venus with a group of outlaws. As he races against time to locate her, he grapples with the societal fear of psychosis and the implications of physical reality. The narrative explores themes of sanity, the nature of reality versus dreams, and the societal structures that enforce conformity and suppress change.
