Описание книги

‘A chilling, unnerving, and timely debut’Katharine McGee, New York Times bestselling author of The Thousandth FloorIn a world where every word is copyrighted, one girl would rather remain silent than pay to speakSpeth has been raised to know the consequences of falling into debt, and can't begin to imagine the pain of having her eyes shocked for speaking words that she's unable to afford.But when Speth's friend Beecher commits suicide rather than work off his family's crippling debt, she can't express her shock and dismay. Backed into a corner, Speth finds a loophole: she closes her mouth and vows never to speak again in protest at the unjust rules of the land.Speth's unexpected defiance of tradition sparks a media frenzy, inspiring others to follow in her footsteps, and threatens to destroy her, her family and the entire city around them.Readers love All Rights Reserved!‘I adored this book… The final speech in the book made me cry.’‘I loved this fresh new approach to a potential future dilemma.’‘I love the author’s quick wit, and his characters are much more than one dimensional sci-fy heroes!’‘This book is an absolutely amazing piece of satiric literature’

Отрывок из книги

In a world where every word and gesture is copyrighted, patented or trademarked, one girl elects to remain silent rather than pay to speak, and her defiant and unexpected silence threatens to unravel the very fabric of society.

Speth Jime is anxious to deliver her Last Day speech and celebrate her transition into adulthood. The moment she turns fifteen, Speth must pay for every word she speaks (“Sorry” is a flat ten dollars and a legal admission of guilt), for every nod ($0.99/sec), for every scream ($0.99/sec) and even every gesture of affection. She’s been raised to know the consequences of falling into debt, and can’t begin to imagine the pain of having her eyes shocked for speaking words that she’s unable to afford.
