The declaration. Malley Gemma518 руб
Charismatic characters, action-driven plot and sublime writing combine to make this an unputdownable novel for teens. Powerful futuristic drama about a world in which human life has a transformed value, and ageing has long since lost its finality. She should not have been born. Anna Covey is a ‘Surplus’. Like all Surpluses, Anna is living in a Surplus Hall and learning how to make amends for the selfish act her parents committed in having her. In a society in which ageing is no longer feared, and death is no longer an inevitability, children are an abomination. Anna’s life is thrown into chaos. She is quietly accepting of her fate until, one day, a new inmate arrives. 2008. But is she brave enough to believe this mysterious boy? A tense and utterly compelling story about a society behind a wall, and the way in which two young people seize the chance to break free. |
