Steve Putnam

The Academy of Reality (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A quest for institutional survival, two subversive corporate employees, Sid Sidney a technician and Mia Monroe a would-be shadow artist, get caught up in the undertow of office-speak and bastardized metrics tracking printer glitches, insurance profits, lab's birdseed expenses, and pigeons' ping pong scores. HR makes things worse, tasking Sid and Mia to co-author an employee benefits booklet, Fifty Places to Picnic.

Mia's bio clock and Sid's world population clock blip in-the-moment numbers on tablets, a battle of Darwinian proportions. Although humans and pigeons already overpopulate the Institute, Mia wants a baby.

Autorenporträt

Steve Putnam living the dream: Farm kid, Navy E3, small-town GM mechanic, framing carpenter, and an onsite printer tech at a large corporate account. When the printers were all working, he hid out in a chain link cage, his basement shop, and wrote the first draft of The Academy of Reality. No one at Corporate knew they were funding a novel about the strange ways of big business. For outstanding customer service, Putnam won Tech of the Year and a trip to Arizona. (As a novel-in-progress, a version of this novel was shortlisted in the Pirate's Alley Faulkner Society Competition in New Orleans.)
