The Golden Space — Pamela Sargent

THE GOLDEN SPACE

In a world rising out of chaos, geneticist Merripen Allen has urged the beautiful Josepha to be inseminated with genetically crafted sperm -- to become one of the mothers of a better, more rational kind of humanity.

In this spellbinding novel, the lives of Josepha, Merripen and the children of reason parallel the tortured history of a universe that has ended death. A universe in which they must seek after a world of their own -- while the rest of mankind struggles toward its ultimate fate.
