Description

Three thousand years after Earth's colonisation of Borthan, a culture has developed that forbids emotional sharing and denies the concept of 'self'. This lasting peace comes at a terrible cost, as love and individuality are sacrificed. A self-baring drug from an Earthman, Kinnall Darival, breaks the strict code of the Covenant, allowing him to record his rebellious life. Darival's account begins with a bold statement: "I am Kinnall Darival and I mean to tell you all about myself." This heresy sets the stage for a story that explores the consequences of a society without love or self. A Nebula Award-winning novel, this book is a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to be human. With its unique blend of science fiction and philosophical themes, "A Time of Changes" is a compelling read for those interested in exploring the complexities of human nature.
