Usually she goes to school, and has chores to perform in the shop.

Her parents run the greengrocer's in the village. Her name is Ann, and she has one younger brother Martin. Now there's a girl, in a village in England, who has the flu and feels very sick and weak, so that she is made to stay home from school in bed, where she is bored. They walk down one path and go onto another path. There are maintenance people, and various complicated machines, a modern setting, but hints of intergalactic happenings.

There is an organization, and a letter makes its way through the organization, reporting a problem employee, or a problem machine, or both. Let's begin with the beginning - Part 1 of the 9 parts of the book. And while the complexities of the plot begin to make sense toward the end of the book, they make far more sense upon the second, or third, or even fourth re-reading, because every scene illuminates something that you have read about, or will read about, in another. Every character in the book plays multiple parts, experiences multiple realities, and does so in a set of scenes that are presented out of any understandable order.
