Gibbon's Decline and Fall by Sheri S Tepper
A wave of fundamentalism is sweeping across the globe as the millennium approaches, and a power-hungry presidential candidate sees his ticket to success in making an example out of a teenage girl who abandoned her infant in a Dumpster. Taking the girl's case is Carolyn Crespin, a former attorney, who left her job for a quiet family life. Now she must call upon five friends from college, who took a vow to always stand together. But their success might depend on the assistance of Sophy, the enigmatic sixth friend, whom they all believed dead.Born in Denver, Colorado in 1929, Sheri S. Tepper began her writing career in her fifties. She has produced numerous works across genres including science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and poetry. A noted feminist and environmental writer, Tepper has received a New York Times Notable Book citation, a 1991 Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel, and has been nominated for both the Hugo and Mystery Writers of America Edgar awards. Now in her seventies, Tepper continues to write, commenting in a recent SciFi.com online interview that aspiring writers must: Write every day... Even if you don't feel like it, even if you hate the idea, write every single solitary day.
