Tunnel Under The World

Description

In a small town, Guy Burkhardt and his neighbor Henry Swanson live ordinary lives until they discover that they are trapped in an infinite cycle of days. In a tense confrontation with their captor, Mr. Dorchin, they learn that they are not men at all, but sophisticated circuits inside mechanical shells.

Guy Burkhardt and his neighbor Henry Swanson think they're just regular people in a quiet town, but then they find out they're stuck living the same day over and over again. When they face off against the man holding them prisoner, Mr. Dorchin, they discover a shocking truth - they aren't real men but complex computer parts built into robot bodies.

A fascinating story of a man who wakes up three days in a row to find the date still June 15th.
