About the book: 2002 / She was born in a world that the inhabitants of other Essences call Quiet Landing - some slightly dismissively, and some with a tinge of envy . For eighty years now, this world, slowly moving along the path of technological progress, has not known war, but its inhabitants had to pay a high price for this by introducing strict birth control. Girls who fail the test will never have the opportunity to experience the joy of motherhood, young people will turn away from them, because “who needs a woman who is not able to give life to children”? Therefore, when the sickly girl Linda, who had practically no chance of passing the selection, discovered the gift of a “motalitsa”, a wanderer through the Essence Worlds, she left her native Rugiland without much regret.
