Author's second novel, a near future tale set in New Zealand. Fearful of a nuclear catastrophe, a small group of vegetarian nudists go off grid. The sea level suddenly rises. Probably because of World War Three. Now isolated on an Island, the cruel interactions of this culture are described in a tense, allusive style, providing a model for, or allegory of, the human condition in extremis. [JC]
