然而,在孩子十三歲到十八歲的這段期間,父母可以選擇「補行墮胎」
條件是孩子的生命在「技術上」並未終止。
終結孩子卻又讓他活著的處理步驟稱為「分解」。
分解如今已是社會接受的普遍做法。
康納知道自己很會惹麻煩,但他怎樣也沒料到他的父母會簽下「分解令」。不管他多麼憤怒、失望,他的命運已被決定:少年隊將會把他帶到「收割營」,到時他身體的每個部分都會妥善地分解並完好地保存下來,但他這個人卻不再存在。一般要被分解的青少年不會預先知道自己會被抓,但既然事先發現了,康納決定逃跑並且反抗到底。
黎莎在公立孤兒院「州之家」長大,卻因為州之家經費縮減,成了要被汰除的分解人。萊夫的情況則大不相同,他雖然也要被送去分解,但他是篤信宗教的父母所貢獻出的犧牲品,從小就培養了堅定的信仰,將分解視為崇高的天命。如今他年滿十三歲,準備欣然完成他這生的任務。
一場突如其來的追逐戰,將康納、黎莎與萊夫的命運相扣在一起。在逃亡路上,他們遇見暗中援救分解人的組織、分解制度的受害者與受益者,還有吸收分解人執行恐怖攻擊的拍手黨。三人為求生存,經歷艱辛曲折的冒險,卻也點燃了分解人追求自由的希望。

Visualizza tuttoIt was really an awesome read.I love the multiple storylines.Up to the middle I was hooked,but the I got a bit bored,and abandoned it to read some other books,but when I restarted.Again,I love it.Have you ever thought about becoming an organ donor?Well,in this book some of teenagers from 13 to 18 are forced to become one.But wait! Not after their death! This process is called unwinding.Set in far future, Unwind is about some kids who are supposed to get unwound,but run away for dear life.If they managed to survive up to 18,they'd be safe. It's an engaging book in dystopian genre which reminds me of The Giver,Hunger Games and Uglies. However,as the first book in a series,it was much darker and more terrifying.Reading part 6 was really a challenge.It was spine-chilling.I needed several breaks to go through it.Still,I had to force myself to keep reading.At the end,I wanted to cry!
