  • "In the middle of the twenty-first century, life as we know it has changed for all time. Environmental disasters have ravaged the planet's resources, and the world has been divided into corporate enclaves. Shira Shipman's marriage has broken up, and her young son has been taken from her by the corporation that runs her zone, so she has returned to Tikva, the Jewish free town where she grew up. There she is welcomed by Malkah, the brilliant grandmother who raised her, and meets an extraordinary man who is not a man at all, but a unique cyborg implanted with intelligence, emotions - and the ability to kill."
  • ""A triumph of the imagination. Rich, complex, impossible to put down." Alice Hoffman In the middle of the twenty-first century, life as we know it has changed for all time. Shira Shipman's marriage has broken up, and her young son has been taken from her by the corporation that runs her zone, so she has returned to Tikva, the Jewish free town where she grew up. There, she is welcomed by Malkah, the brilliant grandmother who raised her, and meets an extraordinary man who is not a man at all, but a unique cyborg implanted with intelligence, emotions--and the ability to kill.. From the imagination of Marge Piercy comes yet another stunning novel of morality and courage, a bold adventure of women, men, and the world of tomorrow. From the Paperback edition."
  • "In een totaal vervuilde wereld in de 21e eeuw met nog slechts hier en daar een overdekt bewoonbaar gebied probeert een vrouw haar vrije geboortestad te verdedigen met de hulp van een mensrobot."
  • "In the 21st century the world has been ravaged by environmental disaster and war, with much of the populace living in corporate domes.

There she falls in love with Yod, an illegal cyborg created to defend the town against attack."
