内容概要

　　The long-awaited new novel from Margaret Atwood. The Year of
the Flood is a dystopic masterpiece and a testament to her
visionary power.
　　The times and species have been changing at a rapid rate, and the
social compact is wearing as thin as environmental stability. Adam
One, the kindly leader of the God's Gardeners--a religion devoted
to the melding of science and religion, as well as the preservation
of all plant and animal life--has long predicted a natural disaster
that will alter Earth as we know it. Now it has occurred,
obliterating most human life. Two women have survived: Ren, a young
trapeze dancer locked inside the high-end sex club Scales and
Tails, and Toby, a God's Gardener barricaded inside a luxurious spa
where many of the treatments are edible.
　　Have others survived? Ren's bioartist friend Amanda? Zeb, her
eco-fighter stepfather? Her onetime lover, Jimmy? Or the murderous
Painballers, survivors of the mutual-elimination Painball prison?
Not to mention the shadowy, corrupt policing force of the ruling
powers...
　　Meanwhile, gene-spliced life forms are proliferating: the
lion/lamb blends, the Mo'hair sheep with human hair, the pigs with
human brain tissue. As Adam One and his intrepid hemp-clad band
make their way through this strange new world, Ren and Toby will
have to decide on their next move. They can't stay locked
away...
　　By turns dark, tender, violent, thoughtful, and uneasily
hilarious, The Year of the Flood is Atwood at her most brilliant
and inventive.
