Unwind is a 2007 dystopian novel by young adult literature author Neal Shusterman. It takes place in the United States in the near future. After the Second Civil War was fought over abortion, a compromise was reached, allowing parents to sign an order for their children between the ages of 13 and 18 to be "unwound" — taken to "harvest camps" and dissected into their body parts for later use. The reasoning is that, since 99.44% of the body is used, unwinds do not technically die because their individual body parts live on.

 

Unwind是一部由年轻成人文学作家Neal Shusterman撰写的2007年反乌托邦小说。它发生在美国不久的将来。在第二次南北战争因堕胎而战之后,达成了妥协,允许父母签署命令将其13岁至18岁的孩子“unwound”-带到“收获营地”并解剖成自己的身体部位,以备不时之需。原因是,由于使用了99.44%的身体,因此从技术上讲,unwind不会死亡因为其各个身体部位依然存活。
