Complex dystopia--partially Orwell and partially Kafka. The main character, a young woman who identifies with the rebels, wends her way, seemingly almost by accident, through the bureaucracy and society of the Complex, an authoritarian dystopia. The Games of the Strong, which are barely mentioned, are games designed to distract the population from their miserable lives.
