Backbiters, by Debra Leea Glasheen. Read by Jennifer Jill Araya.
I’M GILULI OF THE RED MIGHTY NATIONLAND. Fifty-four years ago, the Corporate World War of 2050 annihilated a bunch of animal and insect species on the planet, not to mention billions of people, but the good news is that we were born – the Red Mighties. They don’t like us. They call us mutants. I’m attending their high school in the afternoons to try to understand them better, which believe me is no cup of tea, except for one particular Pre-ev guy who I could drink right up. Meanwhile, they’re trying to steal our pure water source and stop us from saving the Red Mighty babies born to their people. I want to help… but I’m not sure I can do what they’re asking.
BACKBITERS is a young-adult, dystopian novel that takes place in northern Wisconsin and offers themes of interethnic understanding, anti-bullying, protection of the environment, and intelligent loyalty
