Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of four legendary tales, interconnected by the shared theme of revolution. Each tale follows a figure, or group of figures, who attempt to rise up against the societal norms of Smokeover, a city driven by industry and consumerism. The tales explore the degree to which a person can influence, or even change, the systems that govern us all. Through explorations of individuality, morality, spirituality, and economics, the book asks whether or not it's possible to create a place where the stars are more important than the smoke. The author shows that the momentum of a society and its institutions is a formidable force against which any individual must contend. Yet the book makes clear that the converse is also true: society itself would be nothing without the individuals who challenge it, thereby setting the stage for its possible transformation.
