NOTES

There is no war here. No law to dismantle. No new amendment to write. Only a hum. Only the breath caught between encryption pulses.In The Lullaby in Glass and Steel, the Whitmans move through a city engineered for efficiency but starved of kindness. Surveillance scaffolds remain, but many no longer function; their watchers departed, their directives corrupted. Within these digital ruins, caretakers emerge-not as activists, but as keepers of calm.A tired father sings to a daughter tracked since birth. A building refuses to wake a citizen who has finally fallen asleep. Anya Whitman, too old to protest, creates lullabies embedded with subversive code-resistance not through volume, but resonance.This is a novel of soft revolution. A song meant for the ones who never asked for more-but finally realized they deserved it
