Man’s World
Charlotte Haldane, Philippa Levine
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?
In a eugenics-driven future society, will one young woman's defiance make a difference?
