About This Novel

What is the time? It is a mystery - invisible and intangible, but extremely powerful. It is a condition for the existence of the phenomenal world. It is a kind of movement, a kind of movement closely integrated with the spatial existence and movement of objects. So, without exercise, there is no time? No time and no exercise? Just ask! Time is a function of space? Or is it the other way around? Or are the two originally the same thing? This goes too far! Time acts, is mobile, and can "produce effects." What kind of effect? Mutations! This is no longer then, and this is no longer that, because there is movement in them. However, since the movement that people use to measure time is cyclical and self-enclosed, such movement and variation can almost equally be called stationary; because that time keeps reappearing here, and that place keeps reappearing here.
