(4) YA In a future dystopia, Kitty lives in a caste system determined by intellectual merit. Illiteracy dooms her to a life of cleaning sewers or prostitution, until the country's leading family offers her another option and opens her eyes to the society's corruption and inhumanity. A weakly wrought romantic triangle undermines Carter's social critique, but the labyrinthine plot keeps pages turning.
