Description
Miden is a society built from the ground up. Commissions dedicated to fairness, equality, and mindful living have been created following "the Crash," and Miden, an island apart from the wreckage, has risen from the ashes of society as we know it. While on vacation in this oasis, a seemingly aimless woman meets an attractive man, and soon after she moves to the island to start a new life with him. Six months pregnant and just beginning to feel comfortable in her lover's space, she feels as though she may have finally found ownership of her life - until the day the girl arrives. Slight and pretty, the girl discloses a drawn out and violent affair she's had with her professor, the father of the woman's child. In alternating perspectives, the professor and his pregnant girlfriend reflect upon their own lives, each other, and their interloper. As the powers that be gather testimony and consider the case, the couple is forced to confront their own paranoia, fetishes, and transgressions in light of the student's accusations. As their idyllic society grapples with the scandal, boundaries blur and alliances shift as reputation, truth, and self-preservation threaten to upend their relationship. -- from Amazon.
