Told with P. D. James's trademark suspense, insightful characterization, and riveting storytelling, The Children of Men is a story of a world with no children and no future. The human race has become infertile, and the last generation to be born is now adult. Civilization itself is crumbling as suicide and despair become commonplace. Oxford historian Theodore Faron, apathetic toward a future without a future, spends most of his time reminiscing. Then he is approached by Julian, a bright, attractive woman who wants him to help get her an audience with his cousin, the powerful Warden of England. She and her band of unlikely revolutionaries may just awaken his desire to live . . . and they may also hold the key to survival for the human race.
La crítica ha dicho... «Extraordinaria... P.D. James extiende su ya considerable talento en esta osada novela.».-The New York Times «Sobria e inquietante.».-Independent «Escribe como un ángel. Cada uno de los personajes está perfectamente dibujado. La atmósfera es precisa, escalofriante, convincente. Y sabe cómo conducir todos estos elementos sin abandonar ni por un solo momento la tensión de un excitante misterio.».-The Times

Book Synopsis
El excitante thriller distópico de la reina del misterio P.D. James. La película Children of men, del director Alfonso Cuarón, está basada en este libro de P. D. James. Theo Faron es uno de los habitantes de la Inglaterra post-Omega (posterior a 1995, año Omega), un período en que los seres humanos han dejado de ser fértiles. No hay futuro para la humanidad y, resignado, Faron empieza a escribir su diario, donde relata la sordidez de una sociedad en decadencia y el orden que pretende imponer su primo, el temible dictador de Inglaterra conocido como el Guardián. Sin embargo, todo cambia el día en que un grupo de cinco jóvenes revolucionarios se propone desafiar al gobierno totalitario del Guardián.
