Description:
Quote:Winner of the National Book Award! Young Octavian is being raised by a group of rational philosophers known only by numbers -- but it is only after he opens a forbidden door that he learns the hideous nature of their experiments, and his own chilling role in them. Set in Revolutionary Boston, M. T. Anderson's mesmerizing novel takes place at a time when Patriots battled to win liberty while African slaves were entreated to risk their lives for a freedom they would never claim. The first of two parts, this deeply provocative novel reimagines the past as an eerie place that has startling resonance for readers today.Category:Teens & YA, Teen Fiction, Peoples & Cultures - Teen Fiction, Historical Fiction - Teen Fiction, African American->Teen fiction, American Revolution->Teen fiction, Slavery->Teen fiction
