Overview

A family confronts mental deterioration, corporate control, and the search for meaning in a world on the brink. Amid Peter's waning days of mental deterioration, his family gathers and fights about what is proper for his end-of-life care. Sanna, his wife, clings to the past, determined to care for him at home, while their children, Lucy and Ed, grapple with the realities of his condition and the burden it places on their mother. As tensions rise, the family confronts not only Peter's decline but also their own fractured relationships and unresolved conflicts. In another world, a leader emerges from the workers of the monolithic Company government to fight their influence over society. But just as Peter is king only in myth, so does the world mourn only by our own fancy. This literary dystopian novel explores themes of memory, identity, and the search for meaning in a world where reality itself is questioned. Perfect for readers of thought-provoking fiction and psychological explorations.
