he's mysterious, alluring, and more than that. Anna knows he's trouble, knows listening to him is dangerous, encourages him, will only lead to punishment for disobeying the rules. However there is a new Surplus coming to Grange Hill, called Peter, and he says he isn't a Surplus, that there shouldn't be Surpluses - they have as much right to be there as anyone else.
Surpluses are taught that they must make up for their parent's sins and Know Their Place. The Declaration by Gemma Malley - what a book! Another futuristic novel it follows Surplus Anna, Anna Covey to her family (though she refuses to believe in them), who has been brought up in the oppressive Grange Hall and taught that she is a waste of the Earth's resources and it is because of her parent's selfishness that she walks this earth.
