 Woman on the Edge of Time - Marge Piercy ... Utopian epic. Connie Ramos, 37, Mexican-American and unfairly incarcerated in a mental hospital, is the enduring central character in a book about differing visions of the future.Newest Review: ... she allegedly assaulted a man – actually while trying to defend her niece. Beaten up, heavily medicated and with nobody to ... more ... speak on her behalf, no-one wants to listen to Connie’s side of the story. Life can’t get much worse.
Well, actually it can, because lucky Connie is one of the patients chosen to participate in a frightening experiment involving electronic implantations in the brain – an experiment in which five thousand monkeys have already been “used up”.
