Matthew Neely's magnum opus. Set in the not too distant future, the right-white Christian evangelicals intersected with Trumpism and white supremacy resulted in every person of color in America being deported to New Canada. Women no longer have autonomy over their bodies once they hit puberty and rich American men, known as O.K.s (which can also be slang for law enforcement) are allowed to claim any pubescent human female for their own as long as they have the capital. The colony of Puerto Rico attempted to gain their freedom and the coup was put down brutally by millions of brainwashed child soldiers too poor to do anything else, also known as scum (scum also applies to any proletariat working class nomadic white male cut off from capital and addicted to drugs. Scum are overwhelmingly male and under eighteen years old.) Alexis is a sensitive fourteen year old girl. She is a poet and only understands the world through her writing. She is adopted by the scummies and they watch out for her like a sister. Mostly because when she found Gauge, a traumatized fourteen year old war veteran scummy that lost his leg in the Puerto Rican coup, she nursed him back to health. She has earned every scummy's respect.Meanwhile in New Canada four educated women of color are unable to find viable work outside of sex work due to the influx of refugees into New Canada over the past few decades, so they are employed by Zelda's (Guys, we seriously can't call it a brothel. I looked it up in New Canada's statute) and confronted with the question of can feminism and sexual liberation be incompatible? How classism is still rampant once race is removed.This is social satire at its most brutal.
