Produktbeskrivelse

Penguin reissues a work of classic feminist science fiction from the revolutionary author of The Female Man - with a new introduction by Naomi Alderman and Hari Kunzru After an accident destroys their starship and leaves them stranded on an uncharted but apparently hospitable planet – crewless, with few supplies and without tools – the five female and three male passengers debate how to survive.
