Summary

"A novel about seventeen-year-old Milde, who has grown up in the Outskirts, a place beyond the mountains where the dirt is corpse-rich, where mothers and daughters make their living banished from society-without rights, access to care, or legal status. When Milde rebels by throwing Molotov cocktails at the urban planning office in the city, she is arrested, imprisoned, tortured, and eventually presented with a final choice: to be executed publicly or to be launched into space, into a black hole called the Mass, for an experiment. Milde chooses the Mass"-- Provided by publisher.
