Více o knize
The narrative explores themes of immortality and societal rejection through the character of Matthew, who remains perpetually youthful in a future society that fears him. His admission of biological science behind his longevity leads to widespread disbelief and alienation. Seeking escape, he joins an interstellar colony ship destined for Elysium, only to confront personal dissatisfaction upon arrival. Ultimately, his journey reveals that true fulfillment lies in reconciling with his past rather than in the promise of a new world.
