Player One. Douglas Coupland324 руб
Five disparate people are trapped inside: Karen, a single mother waiting for her online date; Rick, the down-on-his-luck airport lounge bartender; Luke, a pastor on the run; Rachel, a cool Hitchcock blonde incapable of true human contact; and, finally a mysterious voice known as Player One. This is a real-time five-hour story set in an airport cocktail lounge during a global disaster. In the tradition of Kurt Vonnegut and J.G. Ballard, Coupland explores the modern crises of time, human identity, society, religion and the afterlife. Slowly, each reveals the truth about themselves while the world as they know it comes to an end. 2011. The book asks as many questions as it answers and readers will leave the story with no doubt that we are in a new phase of existence as a species - and that there is no turning back. |
