Pornogram: A Novel About Genetic Engineering

Osric Allen

What if science could extend the human lifespan bot by thirty or forty years, but by two or three hundred? In this satyrical dystopia the author explores the possible effects of such an extension upon the human psyche using the conventions of a nineteenth century boys adventure story - but with sexual exploration and adventure replacing geographical exploration and mahem.

Viewable on one level as a romp through hi-tech bars and brothels of the twenty-second century, it is also a serious novel about genetic engineering... and a few other things as well. It has a lot to say.
