What this book is about
M.T. Anderson's YA dystopian novel is set in a future where most Americans have a 'feed' — direct neural access to corporate entertainment, advertising, and communication — implanted in their brains. Titus meets Violet, a girl who got her feed late and thinks differently. Anderson's satire of consumer culture and corporate control of thought is prescient and dark; the ending is bleak. Some violence and adult language appropriate to the dystopian satire. A significant work of YA science fiction.
