This chilling  tale begins with a university, and a student riot—only this time the  riot becomes a revolution and produces a new epoch in the American way  of life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Robert  Kiley, a member of the faculty, seems to endorse the change as a giant  step forward in the educational process. After all, his name appears on  the plan that effected it. But his efforts at reform have brought  him near death, saved only by a colleague’s experimental research in  cryogenics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Awakening  years in the future, Kiley finds that he is still on the university  campus where, through some strange metamorphosis, he has become the  spiritual leader of the people—against his every wish. He can’t  understand where he fits, in a new era when everyone speaks in distorted  versions of today’s ghetto jargon, everyone (literate or not) has a  PhD, and the university has become a miniature hell, isolated from the  new paradise of America. But the money still comes from Washington and  as the new “leader,” Kiley goes to fetch it, a journey across America  which reveals just how alien he—or his world—has become.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Often hilarious, this devastating first novel shows how easily the best intentions can          produce a nightmare.","brand":"Doubleday","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44219492729087,"sku":"9780385512404","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780385512404_s600x595.jpg?v=1775594429","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780385512404","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
