Fackelmann, Sunshine, the beach

quote

The supported swoon spun Gately around, C moving around him like a dancer to slow the fall. Gately got a rotary view of the whole room in almost untakable focus.

Context

The pharm-grade Sunshine hits and Gately goes down in a slow supported spin — the book's final inventory of a room delivered as one full rotation. The narrative camera literally circles before the lights go out and the last reflection arrives (p. 981, in the spine).
