In his ground-breaking debut novel, Dwight Okita explores the question of choice. Not the choice of the mother or the government, but the choice of the embryo to be born. Prospect is given a chance to walk a mile in his own shoes, well, what will be his shoes, to determine whether or not he wants to be born. If you could see a snippet of your life at twenty, what would you choose?
"Prospect's strong, innocent voice carries the novel as it ranges from touching to satirical in its exploration of the nature of humanity." -- Publishers Weekly, referring to the novel as it appeared in the 2009 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards
