About this book
In a future where humanity is subjugated by omnipotent beings known as "globes," Geoff St. Reynard's "The Buttoned Sky" explores the struggle for autonomy and identity. As the ruck, an oppressed underclass, grapples with their existence, the narrative unfolds against a backdrop of relentless control and surveillance. The stark contrast between the globes' god-like power and the ruck's yearning for freedom highlights the tension between oppression and resistance. This thought-provoking science fiction novel invites students, civic activists, and historians to reflect on themes of power dynamics and social hierarchy. With its vivid portrayal of a dystopian society, "The Buttoned Sky" challenges readers to consider the implications of authority and the human spirit’s resilience.
