O knihe
Life in the land of Desmonia, despite the fact that each person possesses the
ability to fly, has become completely regimented. Rules are automatically
adhered to; the King's mysterious illness is never questioned; all jobs are
dutifully performed; even the pursuit of fun has become routine.
Interestingly, the citizens of Desmonia are very content with this complacent,
uneventful, rule-regulated life style...
During her first flying lesson, a ten year-old girl unknowingly violates one of
Desmonia's oldest, most obscure rules. When the girl, as a result of her
action, faces the cruelest of punishments, the typically upbeat mood in
Desmonia takes a somber turn. Will either the esteemed Professor Swatit,
torn between conscience and compassion, the King, struggling within a
world of private torment, or the citizenry, all-accepting in their response to
authority, be able to save the girl? Or, does this child have to suffer a
horrible fate before the stagnation that has gripped Desmonia becomes a
thing of the past?
