It is a time in the distant future, and a neo fascist regime has taken over America, and, in the guise of population control, strongly urges suicide. The populace is brain washed into killing themselves by the ubiquitous suggestion of the song "Gloomy Sunday, " (the Hungarian Suicide Song, ) the only song allowed to play on the radio. Alex Ver is a recently famous writer who has been marketed because it is believed her somewhat depressive novels encourage suicide. She lives with Rezso Seress, the original composer of Gloomy Sunday, and they both disdain their fame, success does not fit them well, and the novel is about them and their odd group of friends trying their best not to commit suicide in a world that overwhelmingly encourages them to.
