Abstract
Originally published in 1970, readers follow the l lives of four teenagers in a near-future society, as they rebel against the military draft and 'the system'. From the disillusionment and alienation of the young at the centre of the revolt, to their attempt to build a visionary new society, the nationwide following they gain and their ultimate brutal repression, this is future fiction without the fantasy. This 40th anniversary edition features a new, reflective and unapologetic introduction by the author.
