Publisher's Synopsis
An exuberant hosanna to the dissenting tradition, Dead Stars is the wittiest and the most fantastical thing Edmonds has written so far. It is a novel that puts before every thoughtful reader with great poignancy and earnestness the most difficult problem that exists today in mechanical civilization - the problem of the preservation of the independent, original, creative personality in an era of great masses of people. At once satirical and sobering, Dead Stars speaks to all who have suffered under repression of their personal, economic, and cultural freedom. A paranoid romp through a dystopian future that feels eerily like our present.
