About This Book

A young teacher boarding with a well-to-do family grows increasingly exasperated by constant teenage parties. One night he pursues a falling red light to a field and discovers a small, glowing rocket that emits a strange, hypnotic music. Inside he finds a metal seal and a transparent cylinder of multicolored spheres whose presence produces a disorienting mental effect. He brings the cylinder back but meets adult disbelief and hesitates over whom to notify. The story traces the uneasy collision of youthful exuberance and adult complacency when an inexplicable piece of technology upends ordinary life.
