Features: This book depicts a distant future, 500 years into the future, through the story of a 16-year-old girl who discovers an interstellar zoo after escaping her marriage. In that era, humans have forgotten what animals look like. Despite possessing advanced technology, commanding robots, and traveling freely between stars at will, they have lost the precious qualities of love and compassion. Their world is gray, monotonous, desolate, and bleak. The story subtly conveys the author's warning about human environmental destruction and his earnest hope for humanity to enhance its awareness of protecting the Earth.
