About This Book

A visitor insists to a skeptical clinician that he fashioned the entire world only a few years ago using instruction books while having lived beyond time. The questioning explores geological evidence, the maker's uncertainty about controlling his creation, and his dread that his death will cause the fabricated world to vanish. After the visitor leaves, an observation reveals his sudden demise and a rapid unraveling of perceived reality, culminating in the revelation that both maker and observer exist as constructs under a larger, authoritative consciousness that reproves the maker for mischief and restores order.
