The Green Leopard Plague : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Green Leopard Plague
''The Green Leopard Plague'' is a 2004 novella by Walter Jon Williams that won the Nebula Award, and was nominated for the Hugo Award. It is based on the idea of a genetically engineered virus that allows people to photosynthesize food, leading the world to a post-scarcity society, where there are no more food shortages. It begins in the far future with a mermaid who makes her living by searching old archives. She is approached by a customer who wants her to find information on the man who founded the theoretical background on which their civilization is based, John Terzian. It is eventually revealed that he was involved in the release of the photosynthesis virus. The story then veers back and forward between his story and the mermaid's. In 2010 Night Shade Books republished ''The Green Leopard Plague'' as the titular piece of a collection of Williams' short works. ISBN 978-1597801775. ==External links==
