About This Book

A young prince in a technologically advanced galaxy becomes secretly enraptured by a graceful, primitive woman he observes through a glowing silver sphere, studying her world and movements from afar. His obsession collides with family duty and state control: a stern father, a marriage mandated by the Hygiene Board, surveillance by minion spy-rays, and social reliance on psych-treaters. The narrative follows his covert fascination and mounting conflict, exploring tensions between evolutionary progress and lingering atavism, individual longing and societal engineering.
