Im Jahr 2045 ist das Zeitalter der Technik Geschichte; die biologische Moderne ist angebrochen. Algen und Pilze bauen Autogehäuse, die Boomstädte Asiens werden nachts von Leuchtbäumen erhellt. Auch vor dem menschlichen Körper macht die Bio-Revolution nicht halt. Jeder will hochgezüchtete Designer-Babies, ob legal oder nicht. Die Zeche zahlen andere.

It was the end of World War II. FDR's New Deal had redefined American politics. Taxes were at an all-time high. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had created a fear of total annihilation. The rise of secret government agencies and sanctions on business had many watching their backs. America's sense of freedom was diminishing... and many were desperate to take that freedom back.

D. H. Lawrence is no longer censored, but he is still on trial - and we are still unsure what the verdict should be, or even how to describe him. History has remembered him, and not always flatteringly, as a nostalgic modernist, a sexually liberator, a misogynist, a critic of genius and a sceptic who told us not to look in his novels for 'the old stable ego’, yet pioneered the genre we now celebrate as auto-fiction.
