Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book spans fifty thousand years. It begins in an Ice Age cave where a father holds a dying child, and itends at the edge of the universe where a consciousness older than stars makes one final choice.Between those two points, you will encounter brutality. Not the gratuitous kind that exists for shock. Thesystemic kind. The kind built into cities and factories and armies and algorithms. The kind that wears auniform, carries a ledger, and follows protocol.Each episode is set in a different era and examines a different system of brutality. Some are historical.Some are speculative. All are human. The violence in these pages is never casual and never apologized for.It is the consequence of systems that demand it, operated by people who believe they have no choice.Whether they have a choice is the question the book asks.

The thread that connects them will find you regardless.This is not a comfortable book. It was not written to be comfortable. It was written to be honest. This item is printed on demand.
