Krátky popis
John Kessel, one of the most visionary writers in the field, has
created a rich matriarchal utopia, set in the near future on the
moon, a society that is flawed by love and sex, and on the brink of
a destructive civil war. In the middle of the twenty-second
century, over three million people live in underground cities below
the moon's surface. One city-state, the Society of Cousins, is a
matriarchy, where men are supported in any career choice, but no
right to vote--and tensions are beginning to flare as outside
political intrigues increase. After participating in a rebellion
that caused his mother's death, Erno has been exiled from the
Society of Cousins. Now, he is living in the Society's rival
colony, Persepolis, when he meets Amestris, the defiant daughter of
the richest man on the moon. Mira, a rebellious loner in the
Society, creates graffiti videos that challenge the Society's
political domination. She is hopelessly in love with Carey, the
exemplar of male privilege. An Olympic champion in low-gravity
martial arts and known as the most popular bedmate in the Society,
Carey's more suited to being a boyfriend than a parent, even as he
tries to gain custody of his teenage son. When the Organization of
Lunar States sends a team to investigate the condition of men in
the Society, Erno sees an opportunity to get rich, Amestris senses
an opportunity to escape from her family, Mira has a chance for
social change, and Carey can finally become independent of the
matriarchy that considers him a perpetual adolescent. But when
Society secrets are revealed, the first moon war erupts, and
everyone must decide what is truly worth fighting for.
