Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In the year 2190, the American Catholic Eclectic Church rules a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by nuclear war, enforcing its eleventh commandment above all others: "Be fruitful and multiply!" Contraception is deemed the worst of crimes, leading to overpopulation amidst the ruins left by the conflict. Despair, misery, and terrible diseases dominate the landscape. Some ailments could be cured, but church doctrines prohibit such remedies. A man, raised on Mars as a descendant of Earth colonists, travels to this hellish world for research purposes and is horrified by what he finds. He soon discovers that there is no way for him to return to Mars. He must learn to navigate this new reality and understand the society that has turned its people into a machine that despises individuality.
