In Other Words

Civilization offers the same sacrifice. Rain. Peace. Stability. Progress.

Two men wait in a room where judgment never arrives.
One is a priest who once offered the lives of the innocent to appease the gods.
The other is a modern leader who authorized decisions that cost innocent lives in the name of peace.
They do not argue about whether lives were lost.
They argue about why.
As they wait, they strip their actions down to language, necessity, belief, and numbers.
Ritual confronts procedure.
Proximity confronts distance.
Faith confronts probability.
No verdict is delivered.
No absolution is offered.
No side is declared innocent.
In Other Words is a quiet philosophical dialogue about power, responsibility, and the reasoning that allows harm to be called necessary.
This is not a novel about heroes or villains.
It is a novel about reasoning.
If you believe some choices are necessary, some losses are acceptable, and some actions cannot be undone, this book will not let you stand outside those beliefs.
In Other Words is a short work of philosophical fiction meant to be read in a single sitting.
