Who are you if you have no roots, no real connections? Severed Roots is a dystopian novel set in an alternative contemporary reality. The novel combines character development and action with thought-provoking questions about the roles of individuals and families in society. Unlike most dystopian fiction, the story unfolds in a democratic society.Nick Wong is a product of the Children's Centres -government-run residential schools designed to prevent all forms of patriarchy and help usher in an unprecedented age of world peace. While girls are groomed for leadership, boys are taught subservience.   As is the case with most male graduates, Nick's emotions are stunted and he feels little connection to others. Nevertheless, his innate curiosity and his desire to do the right thing spur him on a perilous quest for Truth -about family, marriage, and the need to connect with who we are.
