Inhaltsangabe

DuOPolis is speculative fiction about three young "gangs" living in the same territory in different times. These youths hail from circa Anno Domini 1769, 1900 A.D. and 2017 CE. By an aberration in Time they meet unexpectedly in the 21st century neighborhood of FivePoints to engage with one another and untie the knot of Time. Inadvertent time-travelers, each group is trying to get "home" again. Both Time and Place are necessary. Place alone cannot make them a home. These displaced teenagers are not complex but savvy and often funny. The 2017 time travelers' reappearance have mystified adult friends whose various jobs play key roles in helping them. Apocalyptic allusions make this tale into biblical fan fiction. The story is a fun, often satirical, lively, and intricate time-traveler—gently and sometimes powerfully told. S. Dorman is author of FivePoints Akropolis, Gott'im's Monster 1808, The God's Cycle, and Fantastic Travelogue.
