Skye, a teenage girl, knows the mall and drugs and the loyalty of her best friend, Bombsie. Our future, in which she lives, is hedonistic and youth oriented; those who believe in God get a mind-wipe, and old folks can be euthanized at sixty-five. The state is an overpowering presence and BillyBoysthe copsare a real and constant threat. The concept of family has scant meaning, and the young people know little of morality, living by an us-against-them ethic and believing that pleasure is the sole purpose of life. When Skye is forced to participate in preparations for her grandmothers euthanasia, she finds herself in the thick of a group of loonies and criminals that she and her friends have always hated and even physically attackedChristians. Furiously, she struggles to maintain her selfish existence against the implacable new force of selflessness, which asks of her the unthinkablethe impossible sacrifice.

With the fall of socialism in Europe, the former East bloc nations experienced a rebirth of nationalism as they struggled to make the difficult transition to a market-based economy and self-governance. The dissolution of Czechoslovakia, in particular, underscored the power of ethnic identity and ancestral loyalties.Hugh Agnew develops the argument that Czechoslovakia's celebrated national revival of the mid-eighteenth century has its intellectual roots in the Enlightenment and defined the nation's character and future development. He describes how intellectuals in eighteenth-century Bohemia and Moravia-the "patriotic intelligentsia"-used their discovery of pre-seventeenth-century history and literature to revive the antiquated Czech vernacular and cultivate a popular ethnic consciousness. Agnew also traces the significance of the intellectual influences of the wider Slavic world whereby Czech intellectuals redefined their ethnic and cultural heritage.Origins of the Czech National Renascence contributes to a renewed interpretation of a crucial period in Czech history.
