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 post-revolution America, moving from the hyper-urbanized eastern seaboard to the Arctic bleakness of Baffin Island; from the new Imperial City to an agricultural commune on Mars.
The overlapping lives of cyber-kite 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.
