Dolls. Windem D.

Roman, which most critics rightly call the best work of John Windem. The book that made a deafening impression on lovers of fiction of the USSR.

many seriously believed that the Strugatsky brothers wrote the novel. Moreover, a curious Samizdat “translation” under the name “Christoludi” walked in the hands, in which quotes, borrowing and references to the works of the Strugatsky were inserted into the text of the Windm. One of the best anti -utopic works of the NF of the 20th century. “Deviations from the norm” There is no place in the villages of new Puritan - the descendants of the few who survived in a nuclear disaster that befell humanity. The cubs of animals that discovered the slightest signs of mutations are destroyed. With human babies, they are “more merciful” - they are simply sterilized and thrown into wild jungle, at the mercy of other vegetable mutants there. But do all the “deviations” be recognized by merciless judges-produces and their fanatical flock? Incorrectly for them, children who have a powerful paranormal gift grow up.
