About This Book

A wartime narrative chronicles a young aviator summoned to the imperial palace late at night to receive orders to fly messages to a besieged fortress. The story juxtaposes the palace's uneasy stillness and the pilot's tense waiting with memories of flight, family ties and a fiancée, and conversations about courage. It emphasizes duty, the mechanical and moral pressures of modern warfare, and the contrast between private domestic care and the relentless demands placed on those who serve.
