Jael 97 is an Alpha. Deemed over-privileged for her beauty, she is compelled to report to the Ministry of Facial Justice, where her face will be reconstructed.

About the Author

Leslie Poles Hartley was born in 1895 and educated at Harrow and Balliol College, Oxford. He is best known for Facial Justice, the Eustace and Hilda trilogy and The Go-Between, which won the Heinemann Foundation Prize in 1954 and whose opening sentence has become almost proverbial- 'The past is a foreign country- they do things differently there.' He was appointed a CBE in 1955, having won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in addition to the Heinemann. He died in 1972.

Reviews

An exquisitely entertaining fantasy
*Observer*

The most exciting and exhilarating of Mr Hartley's novels
*Listener*

A brilliant projection of tendencies already apparent in the post-war British welfare state . . . Hartley was a fine writer with a strong moral sense
*Anthony Burgess*

Hartley spares us nothing; each horrid detail of this nightmare world is expertly driven home
*Peter Quennell*
