Krátky popis
A lost dystopian classic, set in a future without death. You don't
own yourself any longer. Society owns you.Had it not been for
society, you would not be lying here now. Bruno, a young magazine
editor, seems to live a charmed life, until he discovers a growth
on his neck - the first sign of incurable cancer. But his doctor
offers him a unique opportunity: Bruno can choose to be 'frozen
down' until medical science has found a cure for his condition.He
makes his decision, just after meeting and falling in love with an
enigmatic ballet dancer. Decades later, he wakes up to find himself
cured, but the world is now a very different place. Freezing
technology is now ubiquitous, the pleasures of life have been
subtly drained and society has started to fracture.Bruno must
decide what he really wants from his life and whether it's worth
the cost. Fans of dystopian fiction will love this creepingly
claustrophobic classic, which asks all the big questions about
ageing, death, scientific progress and the meaning of life. With a
new foreword by Sophie Mackintosh
