Every day she eats a breakfast of boiled chicken, then conveys her articulated body to Tablet Town, where she sells other figurines Smartbodies: wearable tech that immerses them in a virtual world, a refuge from real life’s brutal wars and eco-terrorist insurgency. If you cut her, she will not bleed—but figurines can still be cracked by gunfire or crumble from nuclear fallout. Erin, who's lost her father and the love of her life, certainly knows plenty about death.One day, a terror attack at work leads Erin to meet Jacob, a blind figurine with whom she feels an instant connection. Together they start to explore the wonders of the virtual reality landscape. But just as they begin to heal from their traumas, secrets from Erin’s past threaten to crack the facade she’s built around her life, revealing everything vulnerable beneath.Both a dystopian comedy and a serious dissection of our own pre-apocalypse, Scott Guild’s debut novel is a beautiful and fabulously inventive look at the hollow core of American society—and a guide to how we might reanimate all its broken plastic pieces.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
