More about the book
Set in the thriving republic of Britannula, off New Zealand's coast, the story explores the implications of a controversial policy enacted thirty years prior, which mandates euthanasia for citizens over 67 to reduce suffering and state costs. As the narrative unfolds in 1980, the once-idealistic young politicians who implemented this law now confront their own aging and the moral complexities of the policy they established. The book delves into themes of mortality, ethics, and the consequences of political decisions on personal lives.
