OLDER FICTION
Lanagan, Margo

White Time

(1) YA In this collection of ten compelling stories, Lanagan typically plunges into the action in a deceptively commonplace milieu. In "Wealth," for instance, a chilling dystopian satire, the chief value of the ruling Leets lies in their voluminous hair, artificially augmented by the impoverished Ords. Other themes--nonconformity, sexuality, cultural norms--in this taut, vivid, and original book challenge teens to explore their own values.
