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.

Freedom and independence will also lead to a more educated, moral, and Christian citizenry. In addition, he argues that Australia will provide raw materials for British industry and an increased outlet for its goods, and that both will be enhanced by freedom and independence.

Largely adventure and romance but presented as a picture of a eutopia of equality for women. Men are completely free from all duties except warfare. Women are revered as mothers and supported as such by the state. No marriage and women choose their lovers as they wish. Every house belongs to some woman and men live with relatives or lovers. Lawrence drew inspiration from and refers to Mary Wollstonecraft\&$\#$39;s (1759-97) Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1782).\ The description of sexual freedom influenced Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822); see 1817 and 1821 Shelley, both of which were so influenced. Shelley wrote Lawrence on August 17, 1812, saying \"Your \&$\#$39;Empire of the Nairs,\&$\#$39; which I read this Spring, succeeded in making me a perfect convert to its doctrines\" (The Letters of Percy Bysshe Shelley.
