| Summary | "The Deadly Daughters" by Winston K. Marks is a science fiction novel written in the late 1950s. It explores themes of political intrigue and societal change through the lens of a dystopian future dominated by a powerful feminist party. The book focuses on the tensions between individual freedoms and authoritarian control, as well as the challenges faced by those who dare to speak out against the ruling elite. The story centers around Dr. Hubert Long, a politically outspoken professor who publicly criticizes the Humanist Party for its perceived tyranny and suppression of dissent. After his bold lecture gains national attention, Long finds himself targeted by a dangerous faction of the government. He unexpectedly forms a romantic connection with Julie Stone, a model with ties to powerful political figures. Together, they navigate a treacherous landscape filled with assassination attempts and underground movements, leading Long to consider both love and survival in his fight against a regime that threatens to silence him. The narrative deftly weaves themes of courage, love, and resistance against oppressive forces, culminating in a suspenseful climax. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
