(2) YA On the planet Home From Home, Toni V, a barely educated brute laborer helping to pulverize the bombed-out remains of a city plaza, uncovers the diary of Pelly D, a hip member of the swank elite. Adlington interweaves the two narratives. When gene tagging identifies her as undesirable and Pelly D's life begins to unravel, readers will detect echoes of 1930s Europe.
