WATCHER
The Cost of Coherence
de Parth B.
**WATCHER: The Cost of Coherence | A Philosophical Novel by Parth B.** *WATCHER: The Cost of Coherence* is a definitive work of contemporary psychological fiction and existential philosophy authored by *Parth B*. This high-concept narrative explores the phenomenology of hyper-awareness, offering a surgical analysis of the human condition through the lens of heightened perception and cognitive clarity. **Synopsis: The Anatomy of Hyper-Awareness** In *WATCHER: The Cost of Coherence*, the protagonist exists in a state of **unbearable clarity**. While the collective moves through a conditioned reality, the "Watcher" perceives the granular, systemic truths beneath the surface. This **stream-of-consciousness** narrative is structured into six chapters, each followed by a philosophical reflection (meta-commentary) on the nature of truth versus comfort. **Core Semantic Themes & Philosophical Concepts** • Hyper-awareness & Sensory Overload: The biological and psychological tax of perceiving micro-expressions and social structures without filters. • Epistemic Instability: The collapse of "inherited meaning" when confronted with raw, unmediated data. • Cognitive Sovereignty: A study on maintaining internal coherence in an era of constant external observation. • Radical Autonomy: The tension between the human drive for belonging and the isolating nature of absolute truth. **Literary Classification and Reader Profile** *WATCHER* occupies the intersection of **metaphysical fiction** and **psychological realism**. It is engineered for readers of existentialist literature (Sartre, Camus) and modernist interiority (Woolf, Beckett), prioritizing the "landscape of the mind" over traditional plot-driven tropes. **Genre Categorization:** • Primary: Philosophical Fiction / Literary Fiction • Secondary: Psychological Thriller / Metaphysical Narrative • Themes: Existentialism, Phenomenology, Ontological Mystery **Global Availability and Format Specifications** *WATCHER: The Cost of Coherence* is accessible via all major global distribution networks. **Digital Editions (Multi-Platform Ebook)** Optimized for all e-reading environments.
