The American Narcissus: A Dystopian Vision of a Burning Los Angeles In the not-too-distant future, Los Angeles has become a dystopian wasteland, ravaged by war, environmental disaster, and societal collapse. The American Dream has long since died, leaving behind a bleak landscape of hopelessness and desperation. Amidst this ruin, four lost souls struggle to find meaning and connection in a world without a future. Arden Coover, a philosophy graduate from Berkeley, is fresh out of a toxic relationship and searching for salvation. He finds it in the form of a new love interest, full of promise but also fraught with uncertainty. His sister Tess, just out of high school, is faced with the harsh reality of her limited options in life, including a loveless marriage to a wealthy narcissist novelist named Ryland Richter. Ryland, an alcoholic executive with too much money and too few scruples, seeks solace in the arms of his dangerous subordinate, while Baxter Kent, a stoned surfer addicted to AI pornography, tries to make things work with a sex robot that can't even communicate. This sweeping vision of America's dystopian future comes from the acclaimed and controversial author of "Dead Inside" and "I Don't Want to Go to Heaven. " It is a powerful exploration of the human condition in the face of technological evolution and the need for a personal paradigm to perceive and understand the process of developing modern knowledge.

Американская мечта давно умерла, оставив после себя мрачный пейзаж безнадежности и отчаяния. Среди этого разрушения четыре потерянные души изо всех сил пытаются найти смысл и связь в мире без будущего. Арден Кувер, выпускник философского факультета Беркли, только что вышел из токсичных отношений и ищет спасения.

Его сестра Тесс, только что закончившая школу, сталкивается с суровой реальностью своих ограниченных возможностей в жизни, включая брак без любви с богатым писателем-нарциссом по имени Райланд Рихтер. Райланд, алкоголик-управленец со слишком большими деньгами и слишком малым скрупулёзом, ищет утешения в объятиях своего опасного подчинённого, в то время как Бакстер Кент, обкуренный сёрфер, пристрастившийся к AI-порнографии, пытается заставить вещи работать с секс-роботом, который даже не может общаться. Это размашистое видение антиутопического будущего Америки исходит от признанного и противоречивого автора "Dead Inside" и "I Don 't Want to Go to Heaven. "Это мощное исследование состояния человека перед лицом технологической эволюции и необходимости личной парадигмы для восприятия и понимания процесса развития современных знаний.
