Moving Mars by Greg Bear (Italian edition)

The novel “Moving Mars” by Greg Bear was published for the first time in 1993. It won the Nebula Award as the best novel of the year.

Casseia Majumdar is a young Martian who in 2171, Mars year 53, gets involved in the student revolt when the government attempts to subvert the semi-anarchist system that traditionally runs the colony on the red planet. Because of the fall of the government, Casseia and the other students get away with it even though some radical elements used explosives in an attack but there are consequences for her and Charles Franklin, a brilliant young physicist with a brilliant future.
