Looking for answers, and her missing granddaughters, Gloria moves into the house where her daughter was murdered. A stranger in a Fort-Detroit neighborhood coping with the ongoing effects of racial and economic injustice, she finds herself surrounded by poverty, pollution, violence--as well as the resilience of the residents, in whose stubborn generosity and carefully tended gardens she finds hope. When a strange intuition sends her into the woods of Parc Rouge, where the city's orphaned and abandoned children are rumored to have created their own society, she can't imagine the strength she will find. Set in an alternate history in which the French never surrendered the city of Detroit, where children rule over their own kingdom in the trees and burned houses regenerate themselves, where rivers poison and heal and young and old alike protect with their lives the people and places they love, Catherine Leroux's The Future is a richly imagined story of community and a plea for persistence in the face of our uncertain future. The Future is a lyrical testament to the power we hold to protect the people and places we love--together."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Women $z Detroit $z Detroit $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $x Death $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Resilience (Personality trait) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 6 $a Femmes $z Detroit $z Detroit $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a ReÌsilience (Trait de personnaliteÌ) $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 6 $a Meurtre $x EnqueÌtes $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. 650 7 $a FICTION / Science Fiction / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Murder $x Investigation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029788 650 7 $a Resilience (Personality trait) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01095573 650 7 $a Women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176568 651 7 $a Michigan $z Detroit. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205010 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921637 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726489 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Ouriou, Susan, $e translator. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Leroux, Catherine, 1979- $s Avenir.
