Professor biochemist Breyer makes a revolutionary discovery: he creates “eternal bread”—a substance capable of conquering hunger once and for all. A tiny portion is enough to satisfy hunger, and the culture grows on its own—without effort or cost.
News of the invention spreads rapidly beyond the quiet fishing village where the scientist worked. Seemingly, humanity stands on the threshold of an age of abundance—but what if the gift of science turns into an unexpected threat?
Alexander Belayev weaves science fiction with a social drama, prompting readers to consider the price of progress and the responsibility of the scientist. “Eternal Bread” is an intense story about how a well-intended purpose can set off a chain of unpredictable events, forcing the world to face a difficult choice.
