This
book is a sociological, hard science fiction, politically incorrect,
dark comedy. Its theme is how the rapidly increasing loss of small privacies today will bring on the exponentially greater loss of freedoms tomorrow. It takes the current uproar over the medias responsibilities to society to a logical, if disturbing, conclusion. It takes the current uproar over the deterioration of our privacies to its inevitable conclusion. On the surface, it is a collage of many features of the twenty first century, the good, the bad, the inescapeable. - Average lifespan is 105. - Houses talk to people - and people talk back. - There are no cloned people - only organs. - Mile high buildings are common. - There is no incurable cancer. - Cars go 150 MPH on electronic highways - without wrecks - or drivers. - New Orleans is a canal city with the French Quarter under a dome. - There is no person to person crime - only Crimes Against The State. - Monitoring cameras are everywhere Society is controlled by the Big Eye, a term used by the protagonist, T.I. Victor, to describe his most feared and hated enemy.
