The Inhabitants of the World of "Levels" or Hey! Nobody's Perfect

No character in my novel, "Levels", is a hero, genius, or martyr. They are just ordinary men and women who occasionally must face extraordinary challenges.

I believe that the reader will be able to personally identify with the emotional struggles and social interactions experienced by the characters throughout the story, but may be shocked and even alienated by some of them.
For instance:

- No one knows where their food, clothing, and housing come from; yet most are quite content to just accept things as they are and to question nothing.

- Males are not even aware that such a thing as a female exists until they are introduced to them for the very first time for the sole purpose of procreation.

- The main reason that vanity does not exist is because no one has ever seen, nor will they ever see, thier own face.

- No one knows who their mother or father is and no one seems to care.

- When someone dies, there is no elaborate ceremony or prolonged period of mourning. No one knows what becomes of the body and no one ever thinks to ask.

The inhabitants of the world of "Levels" bring the old adage, "What you don't know can't hurt you.", to a whole new level. (Pun intended.)
