Morrow, New York, 1989. First edition. First printing (with full number line including 1). Hardbound. Very Fine in a very fine jacket. A clean tight unread copy, with publisher's price intact on front jacket flap. Includes review slip and publicity letter (review copy). Comes with archival-quality mylar jacket protector. Smoke-free. Ships in well padded box. "Sugar Rain" is the second volume in Park's ambitious Starbridge Chronicles, a richly imagined science fiction trilogy set in a stratified society struggling through the final centuries of a dying ice age. Blending political unrest, mysticism, and poetic world-building, the novel follows Thanakar and Charity Starbridge as the city of Charn spirals into civil upheaval and spiritual reckoning. Park, known for his dense, literary prose and philosophical depth, offers a haunting vision of societal collapse and moral ambiguity. The complete Starbridge Chronicles comprises three novels: "Soldiers of Paradise" (1987), which introduces the world of Charn and its caste-bound city dwellers; "Sugar Rain" (1989), which expands the narrative to include revolution and competing ideologies; and "The Cult of Loving Kindness" (1991), which brings the sequence to a metaphysical and political climax.
