Description
In a future where humanity has been replaced by a cloned species, a man named Daniel reflects on his past life and the nature of existence. As he navigates the remnants of a lost civilization, he grapples with themes of love, loss, aging, and the search for meaning in a world devoid of its original inhabitants. This thought-provoking novel explores the consequences of technological advancement and the enduring human desire for connection, even in the face of oblivion.
