Le quotidien de l'adolescente en Basse République en est un de pauvreté, tandis que le gouvernement maintient la population dans l'ignorance et la soumission. Chaque jour, Emma se rend à l'école où austérité et discipline font loi. Là, comme ailleurs en Basse République, les moindres paroles et gestes sont surveillés.

La frontière entre les deux Républiques devient soudainement infranchissable, tout comme celle entre les deux vies d'Emma... " -- 4e de couvTroisième humanité: roman] / 1
