    About this ebook

    If all human hands reach the high skies and cover the gleam of the moon, will the moon fail to cast her glory on Earth? she asked herself.
    Is Eliza an extraordinary human being who will not be subject to natural facts of the world? she still asked herself.
    Am I a supernatural being to stop the Earth from rotating? she gave one last answer to all her questions.
