About Beggars and Choosers
Kress returns to a future transformed by genetic modification, where ordinary people depend on gene-modified elites, and those elites fear the nearly superhuman Sleepless. With society close to collapse under unemployment, biotechnology, and political tension, the question becomes who, if anyone, will be saved.
