HIDDEN SON Nobody under the hill says the old name anymore. The nation that once carried it is forty-eight winters dead, and the few who remember are counted every year by the men who ended it. Zeram is nineteen. He can read, which is a death sentence, and he has survived this long by saying four words each winter that cost him nothing. That is what he tells himself. Then his teacher dies and leaves him three things: a sealed leaf of copper he is forbidden to open, a map cut into the skin of a dying man's hand, and an instruction that is not the one he expected. Not save the record. Not save our people. Find out what deserves saving. South of the hill the world has gone on without him. There are peoples he was never told about, and stories he was told were his that other mouths remember differently, and a man building peace out of the ruins with a full storehouse and a fire that burns only one kind of thing. And in a soybean field in Ohio, a man on a track hoe stops his machine because something under the bucket doesn't feel like a rock.
