The Land of Big Numbers is a collection of stories about a soulless world and unhappy people who never experience happiness. It is as if no one can face their personal destiny anymore, nor can they escape from the grip of the government and institutions, every conversation is incomplete and hidden, and every misfortune is blind.
This is the same world where everyone feels alienated and alienated from themselves.
