Description

about the book

  • BETON is a philosophical dystopia, psychological thriller, and social science fiction novel about a world where stability has become a new form of prison. It is the first volume of the MONOLITH trilogy and the first stage of reality verification.

    Anton is not merely an employee. He is an instrument of the System, designed to calibrate human meanings. His work is to detect and smooth out “noise”: memories too vivid, feelings too sharp, questions too alive, manifestations of memory and inner resistance too dangerous.

    In this world, everything that disrupts the monolithic structure must be edited. Fear, love, pain, choice, the past, guilt, pride, doubt — all of it can be corrected, rewritten, or erased in the name of stability. Until the System itself begins to fail.

    We are all part of one wall. We have grown used to its coldness and its strength. But what happens when you begin to hear a hum where there should be silence?

    BETON is a dystopian transcript-novel seized from the closed archives of the Department of Meanings, Upper Sector. It stands on the border of social science fiction, cyberpunk, philosophical prose, and psychological thriller: a story of mind control, memory editing, the collapse of reality, and a man who discovers the first crack in a perfectly built world.

    “Concrete fears only those who have stopped considering themselves part of it.”

    This edition has been released under conditions of extraterritoriality to preserve the integrity of the Signal.
