## Description

The world of The Cloven: a place where facts are malleable; where genetic ''experiments'' live in the margins beneath the freeway. Where secret societies make all the real decisions about the fate of our world, where billionaires filled with hubris insist on tweaking the universe for our own good, where fear and anxiety seep from people''s pores so that we d rather believe the scripted television news than something we''ve actually seen; and yet where searching for one s place in the world - searching for one''s home - is still the most powerful yearning of a person''s soul.
