Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Winner of the James Tiptree, Jr. Memorial Award, the Lambda Literary Award, the Locus Award for Best First Novel, and a Hugo and Nebula Award nominee.
With this groundbreaking novel, Maureen F. McHugh established herself as one of the decade's best science fiction writers. In its pages, we enter a postrevolution America, moving from the hyperurbanized eastern seaboard to the Arctic bleakness of Baffin Island; from the new Imperial City to an agricultural commune on Mars. The overlapping lives of cyberkite fliers, lonely colonists, illicit neural-pressball players, and organic engineers blend into a powerful, taut story of a young man's journey of discovery. This is a macroscopic world of microscopic intensity, one of the most brilliant visions of modern SF.
Synopsis:
This "New York Times" Notable Book, one of the core works of modern science fiction, returns to print in trade paperback. The novel is the coming-of-age story of Raphael "China Mountain" Zhang in a wired world dominated by expansionist China. "A wonderfully engaging first novel . . . "--"Philadelphia Inquirer".
