About This Book

A protagonist infected by a plague loses all five senses and survives as solitary thought; when sensation returns he speaks and discovers implanted memories that place him in a ruined post-atomic landscape dominated by military commanders. He realizes he may belong to an underground resistance and must confront the implications of borrowed identity amid accounts of armies that survived and seized territory. The story juxtaposes the interior ordeal of sensory deprivation and rebirth with a broader depiction of wartime social order, probing identity, memory, and human will under technological and political devastation.
