The baby girl with the adult left leg seems more irritated with the plangent and predictable ranting of the character with the primitive left arm (her father) than anything else. Her left leg, I can tell you, points to her future whilst his left arm indicates his past, if that's any help.

Down on the desert plain, amid the remaining edifices of earlier civilisations, the self-deceivers put their faith in the power of the monster they have created, their god. Up in the hills of pumice are the would-be revolutionaries, the anarchists, the nihilists and a few Guardian readers.
