Anotace knihy

You don't start a revolution. It starts inside you.

It is one hundred years since an Alien empire known as the Hegemony has conquered Earth. The sea level has been raised 750 metres to accommodate a sanctuary for a community of mysterious, whale-like creatures called dunkas. The surviving human population lives on the remaining islands and archipelagos, divided into "timezones" - recreations of different periods in human history, designed to allow the Hegemony to better understand the "Earthling condition".

In the E21 (Early 21st Century) Zone, Sofia Rian works as a low-ranking clerk in the Earthling Welfare Office on the island city of Eveningstar. She prides herself on doing the right thing: work hard; contribute to society; follow the rules, even those written by their Alien overlords. But when she discovers she's pregnant with a hybrid child, the father a high-ranking Alien named Roland, Sofia is forced to reckon with the system she's helped uphold and the full cost of collaboration.

As rebellion stirs and Sofia's choices ripple outwards to affect family and friends, she must decide between survival and that most dangerous of dreams: the promise of a better world.

For fans of Octavia Butler, Kazuo Ishiguro, and Emily St. John Mandel, Eveningstar is a bold and unflinching speculative fiction debut - a literary dystopia exploring power, compromise, and what it means to be human.
