Opis

3 W / 2 M]

A city-state 150 years beyond a nuclear holocaust, where genetics have come to rule both custom and law.

Prudence has fallen in love with Liberty, a young man somewhat like her father, the current (and former) Chair of Silica, yet different. For he (Liberty) was born from a class of mutants, known as "the Wild Things," and thus, by law, banished from any life within the city-state.

Surprised when her love-affair and subsequent pregnancy is discovered, Prudence struggles with the terms offered by her father and the Chief Censor of the city-state.

"An abstraction can never be true."

Aldous Huxley
