Produktbeschreibung

Mars is in crisis. Ten years after its formation the Earth colony on the red planet has yet to produce a healthy child. Every baby has been deformed and stillborn. With Earth overpopulated and at war, the success of the Mars experiment is crucial to the survival of the human race. Something must be done to ensure its future.

In Finches of Mars, Brian Aldiss has produced a fascinating and thought-provoking novel that considers the practicalities of man's exploration of space. It is shot through with the trademark wit and visionary philosophy which have been ever present across the seven decades of his writing career.
