Résumé
Imagine a future without a past, a time without memory, a state in which tradition, language, history, have no place. Governed by a hyper-organized system of corporations, each responsible for a particular product, each workforce is conditioned to one end... But somewhere a clandestine group is operating to preserve the past... In the olive-producing region of Olea, the Readers are smuggling books and storing them in a secret library hidden away in the house of Jephzat and her family. When her sister disappears under suspicious circumstances and her parents are hastily relocated by the Company, Jephzat is ordered to remain in the house. Alone and facing the suspicion and hostility of the villagers, she falls in love with Homer, an olive picker she once rescued from the hands of Company Commissioners - and a long-time member of the Readers. As Homer introduces her to the library, and her hunger for knowledge grows, so do her questions, and soon Jephzat finds herself closely involved not only in the recovery and preservation of books, but in a secret plan which endangers Jephzat herself...
