Synopsis
Humanity fled to Elsewhere, at the far end of an attenuated galaxy arm, to escape enslavement by the Hobbs Land gods. The gods - actually a benign biological symbiote - prohibited the asking of the Great Question: what is the ultimate destiny of man?

À propos de l?auteur
Sheri Tepper was born in Colorado. She worked for many years for non-profit-making organizations and was a writer of children’s fiction. She sold her first adult novel in 1982 and has written many highly acclaimed science fiction and fantasy novels since then. She has also written crime and horror. She now lives in New Mexico.
À propos de la quatrième de couverture
THE PEOPLE ZOO
Barbaric customs and bizarre human cults are preserved on the planet Elsewhere. The rest of the universe has been taken over by the Hobbs Land Gods, which means that everyone alive, except the people on Elsewhere, lives in perfect harmony with nature and with each other.
But Elsewhere is ruled by computer-encrypted professors who have been dead for a thousand years. The professors were dedicated to maintaining human diversity. Their ancient analogs are dedicated to something infinitely more sinister.
The time has come to consider whether enslavement by the hobbs Land Gods is not preferable to the depravity being cultivated on Elsewhere. The time has come to ask the Big Question, What is the Destiny of Man? And answer it.
"'Sideshow' deserves to be on the same shelf as any classic you are to name. Sheri Tepper is one of the greats of human literature"
