This novel is about a man who became a machine to survive his grief, and a machine's grief that reminded him he was still a person. It is not a sequel to EZY. It is a parallel. The same rain. The same city. The same question, asked from the other side: not "what happens when a machine feels too much?" but "what happens when a man feels nothing for too long, and then something cracks?"
