At an unspecified time in the near future, the world has enjoyed decades of peace and prosperity thanks to the world-wide dissemination of an anti-violence vaccine that was invented by a ruthless industrialist named Nolebody. When scientists discover that the vaccine has a half-life -- and that this half-life has already been reached -- the administration is not prepared to keep order, since the military has been disbanded and no one knows how to operate the obsolete weaponry. In a cynical plot to restore stability, the government's leaders resolve to award the nation's highest honour, the Nolebody Award, on a reclusive, somewhat dim-witted man who lives in a shack in the desert and fashions sculptures from feathers, dead lizards, and other found objects. Leonard Bentwood's simple life and values are touted as the epitome of good citizenship and national pride. The unwitting Bentwood accepts, and travels to the capital to accept the award. In a staggering example of the power of unintended consequences, his acceptance speech triggers a revolution that sweeps the government from power. This wise and thoughtful fable entertains as it lampoons governments of every stripe.
