Produktbeschreibung
With relentless energy and precise observation, Dan Tyte's second novel focuses on modern social behaviours and the impact of technology on our lives, relationships and perceptions. This sharp and highly contemporary narrative probes into our dependence on the internet, and to what extent we might be able to free ourselves from this, a concern of immediate relevance to an increasing number of the population. The internet defines Gerard Kane. But after a death in the family and a dumping, can going off-grid save him? His pursuit of something outside the saturation of data takes him from Cardiff, and a web of family members caught in cycles of selfies and online gambling or relationships which fade without their Instagram filter, to a new community in the Danish woodland. In turns humorous, poignant and gripping, this is a novel which examines the dark heart of the digital age to thrilling effect.
