Aus dem Klappentext

Nina X has never been outside. She has never met another child. She has no mother and no father; she has Comrade Chen, and Comrades Uma, Jeni and Ruth. Her closest emotional connection is with the birds she sees when she removes the plasterboard that covers her bedroom window. Comrade Chen has named her The Project; she is being raised entirely separated from the false gods of capitalism and the cult of the self. He has her record everything in her journal, to track her thoughts. To keep her ideology pure, her words are erased, over and over again.

But that was before. Now Nina is in Freedom, and all the rules have changed. She has to remember that everything is the opposite of what she was told, and yet still the world doesn't make any sense.
