Aprašymas
"I am in love with Sofia Samatar's lyricism and the haunting beauty of her imagination. Her stories linger, like the memory of a sumptuous feast."--N. K. Jemisin
Award-winning author Sofia Samatar tackles the carceral state and violence embedded in the ivory tower in her brilliant science fiction debut embodying the legacy of Ursula K. Le Guin. "Can the University be a place of both training and transformation?"The boy was raised as one of the Chained, condemned to toil in the bowels of a mining ship out amongst the stars, forever shackled to his work gang. His whole world changes--literally--when he is yanked "upstairs" to meet a woman he will come to call "professor." The boy is no longer one of the Chained, she tells him, and he has been gifted with an opportunity to be educated alongside the ship's elite. But as the boy and the woman both come to teach and learn the physical and mental reality the other inhabits, together they will embark on a journey to transform the many chains that are subjugating them all, and are the keys to breaking free.
