Eleven-year-old Eljie was an illegal "null" living on the shadowed streets of New York City. Doris Gudmawrn, twenty-nine and still a "legitizen," had made it her mission to rescue the city's lost children. In October, seven months after the incident that had sparked a global chain reaction and ruined things for good, some fate or fortune brought Eljie and Doris together. Theirs was a brief encounter. Not long afterward, they were both pretty much dead. That is just the first step into the women's startling, thought-provoking, poignant and funny journey, in which perceptions shift, causality fluctuates and relationships are reshaped; where forces move and objects are resistible, and predicting the result of any action is like rolling round dice on a badly warped tabletop. There, in the middle of everything, lies the grace of self-knowledge; therein circles the fate of a multiverse being turned inside out... Eljie Inscidought.
