About This Book
A meticulous scientist navigates a bureaucratic matchmaking system that pairs people by exhaustive specifications. He rejects a seemingly perfect candidate over a fractional weight discrepancy, while clerks and officials attribute the mismatch to typographical errors and implanted test suggestions. The story follows the clash between cold selection criteria and human preferences, contrasting famed physical ideals with personal exacting tastes. Through comic situations and bureaucratic absurdity, it satirizes technocratic control of mating and the folly of reducing intimate choices to rigid measurements.
