Second volume of two following 2021 Chambers, A Psalm for the Weild-Built. In this volume, Dex and Mosscap travel across Panga visiting people trying to get the answer to the question the robots have of what do humans need and how can the robots help. They first visit a prosperous woodland village, then an equally prosperous riverside village, a small oceanside settlement that is strongly against technology, and the monk\’s family, before heading toward their intended last stop, the City. But they take a detour during which they consider what they have learned. One practice appears to be the standard means of exchange, the Peb or Digital Pebble which are given by one person for a service rendered and then that person gives it to another for their service, all recorded on pocket computers. Dex explains that \“the point of a peb exchange is to acknowledge someone\’s labor and thank them for what they bring to the community\” (38).

The authors of the stories were each \“assigned a specific climate event mentioned\” in the 2018 UN climate report collaborating with experts recommended by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) who \“provide a scientific backbone\” for the stories while giving the writers free rein to determine how closely they adhered to that science\” (6-7). The Introduction to the volume (7-12) is by Susan Casey-Lefkowitz, Chief Program Officer of the NDRC.

The story describes three societies, one a completely oppressive, hierarchical dystopia, one an anarchist eutopia where all the peoples of the galaxy are welcome and treated equally, and Dyanna, which has tendencies in both directions. The story is told through a bicycle race with a team from each planet taking place on all three planets plus a deserted Fourth World, which are alternate versions of the same present. The protagonist is a black woman with a prosthetic leg and only one good eye. In some way, the race is intended to prevent an interdimensional war. It begins on Planet One, the technically advanced dystopia with smooth metal roads, whose riders look identical, have only a number which identifies superiority and inferiority, and apparently is planning an invasion of the other Earths. The second planet, Dynnya, is a coalition of over a thousand planets. They are primarily agrarian, have no central authority and extremely advanced biotechnology, with most of the planets having no private property, and there has been no war in many thousands of years.

The following is from the author\’s abstract. The novel \“focuses on a wide range of deaf people involved in intra-deafcentric conflicts; deaf sub-groups include a range of communication preferences (speaking, cued speech, signing) as well as multiple physical differences (deaf blind, cerebral palsy, wheelchair users) though not ethnic diversity. A critical introduction to the novel explains that science fiction allows the creation of a world that does not exist as a real physical place and allows exploration of intra group issues that a mainstream context of oppression of all deaf people obscures. The introduction also relates a discussion of the countries on Eyeth to colonialism and post-colonialism theory to provide a framework to the reader for the subsequent analysis of how Eyeth uses but also subverts colonialist thinking through characters\&$\#$39; actions. The novel itself is about a young man, Virgil G, training under the tutelage of the current Guardian of Eyeth, Shawn Wright, who ensures Eyeth doesn\&$\#$39;t stray from its original goals of being a deaf world.\”

It is a speculative novel set in a possible future and poses (and answers) the question: What might happen if water becomes the most powerful commodity on earth? There are two communities, called \‘worlds\’ to create a barrier and difference where physical ones are not in evidence. A battle ensues over unfair conditions and access to water.

After a nuclear war, Minnesota becomes independent under the rule of the old politicians and business leaders, who controlled both the political system and the economy and undermined education to make it serve their purposes. They set up a program using Minnesota\’s biomedical expertise to provide the world with medicine, breeding people with genetic enhancements, and establishing a means of judging whether a person is worth keeping alive and killing those judged not.

This \“Scrooge Nouveau,\” as she calls him, owns multiple corporations, and is only concerned with more and more money and has no interest in the damage his actions inflict on other people or the planet. The first spirit is the Spirit of Earth Day Past who shows him how Earth was nurtured in various cultures but also shows him the Black Death and other ways humans negatively impacted the Earth. The Spirit of Earth Day Present shows him various contemporary disasters-in-the making. Finally, the Spirit of Earth Day Future multiple possible futures. In one, the human race is extinct. Finally, alternative futures are present, one in which the Earth is recovering and the other in which there is a food shortage, inflation has destroyed Scrooge\’s wealth, and he is in danger of starvation.

The play, which was almost universally panned when first performed, is now considered to have been an important contribution to British theatre. It begins with a man and a much younger woman entering an expensive hotel room in Leeds. Over five scenes a soldier enters the room, the woman has escaped through the bathroom, the room is hit by a mortar bomb, the soldier rapes and blinds the man and later commits suicide, and much more violence follows. It was first performed at the Royal Court Upstairs, London, January 12, 1995. Significant revivals and restagings too place at the Royal Court Downstairs in 2001, the Queen\’s Hotel in Leeds in 2008, the Soho Rep in New York City in 2008, the Lyric Hammersmith in London in 2010, and the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield in 2015.

A shared future history anthology related to Smith\&$\#$39;s 1993 In the Cube, which was written during the collaboration on this volume. The basic premise is that Boston is sinking and that as it sinks some of it will simply disappear under water and that the remaining sections will struggle for survival and come into conflict with each other. To complicate matters a wide variety of different aliens arrive in Boston and become part of everyday life. One of those aliens is testing humans for admission into the interstellar world. Humanity apparently passes the test and at the end Boston reunites and establishes itself as a separate country.

A dystopia with some eutopian elements in which big government and big business have no concern for the people. Related to 1985 McAlpine in that the dominant world power is the RUSA. Also related in that one of the centers of concern is the environmental destruction caused by government and business and in its antinuclear theme. The eutopian elements are found in the ability of people to work together cooperatively and in a strong feminist current showing women freeing themselves from the dominance of men and then being able to create equal partnerships with men who are also capable of doing so.

Those born without these abilities are killed. Each person must go through an individual rite of passage, and the protagonist is going through hers when she meets a boy who has descended to Earth from a comet in which he lives.

The novel begins in an anarchist eutopia with some problems on a future, overpopulated, polluted, but high-tech Earth contrasted with Mars, which focuses on law and order. The protagonist of the novel is an anarchist woman in her late twenties living on Earth who can speak Syth, the language of aliens who threaten Earth and Mars. She is hired by the Committee for the Revolution to meet on Mars with Syth leaders to negotiate a truce, which is complicated by the fact that the Syth consider females inferior. The novel begins in Manhattan, which is below the surface of the ocean and is a tourist destination, and then moves to the largely underground, dome-covered, New York, where the woman lives in a commune and looks for temporary jobs to pay her minimal expenses. Men have a \“plug\” to keep them from impregnating a woman and must have a signed document from a woman to have the plug temporarily removed. The Committee for the Revolution has become a \“vestigial government\” to which people turn rather than dealing with problems themselves (10/Gollancz 2011, 10/Gollancz 2000, 12). The novel moves quickly to interstellar conflict.

Feminist eutopia composed only of women, mostly clones but with a few new genotypes still being created, confronts men returning from a long space voyage. The eutopia came because an epidemic caused widespread infertility and no male babies were born. It has a small population and is without hierarchy or government and, while it has space travel, it is based more on agriculture than technology. The three men include an extreme chauvinist, a Christian who believes that God established a patriarchal system, and one man who struggles to understand and accept the situation.

The novel begins in a eutopia on a beautiful planet with very strict birth and pollution controls to correct past bad practice on Earth. Most children are born in machines and raised in \"child communes\". The people recognize that they are far from perfect and something like a slum exists among the wealth and the beautiful architecture. No religion. The eutopia is attacked and almost defeated by the followers of a charismatic religious leader who has taken over an entire planet through drugs that enhance psychic ability and allows people to be controlled.

Feminist eutopia. The story follows the first thirteen years of the life of a girl born into an egalitarian society at midnight on January 1, 2000. Each person works twenty-five hours a week with an additional six hours a month of volunteer work, although they can arrange their hours as they choose (11-12).

Alien invaders produce a eutopian response, although a nuclear war devastates most of the world between the first visit of the aliens and their return to establish a colony next to Lake Taupo. This first settlement is destroyed by the eruption of Mount Tongariro. The emphasis is on the conflict with the aliens, but, after the aliens easily defeat a Chinese invasion of Australia and New Zealand, that conflict ultimately brings humanity, including the Chinese, together in an attempt to defeat the next wave of alien colonists. The novel ends there, so its success or failure is not known. The aliens are depicted in both a eutopian and a dystopian light. The alien society is briefly described from the alien perspective; it is completely collective with ties only to the community and, since they do not sleep, they live virtually their entire lives as part of a collective. Their complete reliance on logic and reasons produces the dystopian characteristics.

The story is a response to the theories of Richard [Sharpe] Shaver (1907-75), who argued for an underground world of evil, and is presented by the author as autobiography with supporting notes by the editor of the journal, Ray[mond Arthur] Palmer (1910-77). In the author\’s version, the underground world is a eutopia of people with advanced technology and psychic abilities.

Eutopia set in London in 1988. Everyone lives in \“Associated homes\” and works a six-hour day mostly in cooperatives. Population limited, primarily through birth control. No pollution. Strict control on both immigration and emigration. Eugenics with feeble-minded children killed at birth and \“criminal lunatics\” euthanized (36-37, 115). Women work equally with men in all occupations. Ireland now part of the United Commonwealth of Great Britain and Ireland, but all four component units have some independent political institutions.

Heaven as a eutopia in line with the Swedish thinker Emanuel Swedenborg (1668-1772) and the American spiritualist Andrew Jackson Davis (1826-1910), who published descriptions of what he called the Summer Land in a number of books between 1847 and 1878. The Gates Ajar presents a heaven in which one is reunited with relatives and gives a glimpse of a more fulfilling life for the female protagonist. Between the Gates is the eutopia of the series in that it is explicitly a criticism of the current social order as it affects women and shows a Heaven in which women can lead fulfilling lives. The third volume, Beyond the Gates, focuses on a domineering man who is reformed in heaven. The Gates Ajar provoked considerable controversy. Attacks include J.S.W. Antidote to \“The Gates Ajar\”.
