Part thriller, part true crime, part allegory, "The Recidivists" is a powerful story set in the near future. Taking place in four time periods it is relayed by four narrators and follows the tradition of near-future dystopias such as George Orwell's "1984" and Margaret Atwood's "The Handmaid's Tale".In the world of The Recidivists, motherhood is sacrosanct and working women are vilified for not doing their part. Environmental tampering has raped the earth's bounty so that only a finite group of nations can benefit from industrialization. Genetic Engineering has rewarded those who can afford it with super-children who are smarter, faster and healthier than non-altered children. Recidivists, those who defy genetic coding or reject the values of accepted society, are either euthanized or sent to treatment facilities where they are reprogrammed. Meanwhile, those benefiting from this affluent society turn a blind eye while the government continues to legislate every aspect of modern life.
