He had lived in this revolving laboratory. for nine years. However, Matt would soon be eighteen, and not all the young people could stay -- otherwise the Can would burst at its seams. In this briskly paced science-fiction novel human relationships take on an extra dimension against the exotic background, which seems to have a life all its own. Life, in fact, is what the Can's occupants are seeking, and with Matt's help they find it - under strange and unexpected circumstances." Cited in Barron's ANATOMY OF WONDER.
