- Synopsis
- In a eugenics-driven future society, will one young woman&’s defiance make a difference?In the not-too-distant future, England&’s population quality and quantity are under scientific control: Only those deemed the fittest are permitted to procreate. Women are groomed to be &“vocational mothers&”—or else sterilized and put to other uses. Written by an author married to one of the world&’s most prominent eugenics advocates, this ambivalent adventure anticipates both Brave New World and The Handmaid&’s Tale. When a young woman rebels against her conditioning, can she break free?
