The last of the human race is divided into surface dwellers and the people who live in the Upper Settlement, a ring perched at the edge of the Earth's atmosphere.Bearing witness to this divided planet is Pearl, a young techie with a thread of shuvani blood, who lives in the isolated forests of Gobari, navigating her mad mother and the strange blue light in the sky. But Pearl's stepfather promises her to a starborn called Arlo, and the world Pearl thought she knew will never be the same again.Set in the luscious landscape of Andalusia, this claustrophobic, dystopian reimagining of Wide Sargasso Sea is a fever dream, a blazing vision of self-destruction and transformation."--Publisher. 650 0 $a Future, The $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Climatic changes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Disasters $x Environmental aspects $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Dystopias $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Equality $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social stratification $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Andalusia (Spain) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 3 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722063908.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713013710.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210302014724.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8E4D337E7B2811EB8960C99555ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
