O knihe
"If paradise existed on earth would we enjoy or destroy it? For the villagers of Upper, Lower and Middle West Side, life in 2020 is a mad scramble to achieve and acquire; a dash into each day, which they have to come to accept as normal. One of two of the older inhabitants occasionally cast wistful backward glances to an age when people seemed kinder to each other; still, time marches on... changes are inevitable...
Then the bubble comes suddenly and without warning one cold January day.
Clearer than glass, harder than diamond, the villagers stare through the bubble in bewilderment at the familiar, yet unreachable, scene beyond. They gaze upwards. Is there a top to this? Will the air run out? What happens when the water, gas and electricity are cut off? What exactly is it? Why is it there and where has it come from? They try everything to break through it, but to no avail. Is it some kind of joke? They are perplexed when no-one, from family to work colleagues, seems to be missing them. They are afraid; but outrage and panic gradually give way to a calm resourcefulness as a new and fulfilling way of life is created under the guiding hand of a stranger who appears in their midst. But who is he? And is this paradise sustainable, or will it be shattered by the corrupt and evil Gordon Golightly?"
