Description: WATCHER: The Cost of Coherence | A Philosophical Novella 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.
