Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. ''Wait. Patient. Now. Not long. Good girl. Wait here. Brave girl. Back in a jiffy. Think of it as a vacation.'' Big Bend, population 500. South Dakota, 1988. Eight-year-old Tiny Mite lives in a ramshackle farmhouse next to her grandfathers crashed airplane and the pine tree where she trains as a spy. Goddamn is her favourite word. Taking pictures with a homemade camera is her new big thing. She lives with Bee, her apocalypse-obsessed grandmother and Luvie, her hard-drinking great-aunt. And then theres her mother, Velvet beautiful, heartbroken, desperate, impulsive. One night, Tiny Mite goes to the basement and hears a cry, but its not what she imagines and nothing will ever be the same. Six years later, Clea wont let anyone call her Tiny Mite anymore. Luvie is sober and Bees health is failing. Velvet has been gone for years, and nobody except Bee will even mention her name. Alone, angry and dressed in her grandfathers old hunting clothes, Clea mopes through ditches and fields taking photographs until she hatches a plan with another loner, a boy with an unspeakable past. This is a story of mothers and daughters. Of people tied by blood and home. Of moments captured and lifetimes lost. And of things never quite turning out as expected. ''Not The Only Sky is not only beautifully and poignantly written, but also provides fascinating insights into life in rural America. Alyssa Warren captures perfectly the profound vulnerability of her characters, particularly that of Tiny Mite and her mother Velvet. Tiny Mites voice is highly original, as she gives meaning to a life and childhood experiences that might otherwise be impossible to make sense of.'' JULIET CONLIN, author of The Uncommon Life of Alfred Warner in Six Days. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 390 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Eight hundred years after humanity's extinction, Aia, an android, awakens in the tundra of Alberta, Canada. It has no knowledge of the time before, and the world ahead holds the answers it seeks. What happened to its creator? Will it find its place in machine society? As Aia encounters civilization, it quickly learns that self-actualization is not for all: machines live within a caste system, bound to their peers with no means of promotion. Within the eclectic city-state of HUB 9, situated in the idyllic ruins of San Francisco, Aia is indentured to a sewage processing facility and nearly gives up hope until it is mysteriously promoted from its current assignment by Donnie Eberstark, a member of the social elite bent on preserving humanity's legacy and culture. While discovering where it fits in, Aia becomes embroiled in a high stakes political movement that will decide the future of machine-kind. Immersive, meditative, and witty, Stuart Warren's second full-length novel Dynamic Synapse Protocol explores the aftermath of humanity's fall and the difficult choice between exalting the past or embracing the future.
