Böcker av M. T. Anderson

Award-winning author M. T. Anderson explores themes of art, truth and colonization in this sharply wrought satire of a future Earth.From the author of dystopian tour de force Feed comes a soon-to-be literary classic that will resonate with young adults and adults alike.When the vuvv first landed, it came as a surprise to aspiring artist Adam and the rest of planet Earth ¿ but not necessarily an unwelcome one. Can it really be called an invasion when the vuvv generously offered free advanced technology and cures for every illness imaginable? As it turns out, yes. With his parents¿ jobs replaced by alien tech and no money for food, clean water, or the vuvv¿s miraculous medicine, Adam and his girlfriend, Chloe, have to get creative to survive. And since the vuvv crave anything they deem "classic" Earth culture, recording 1950s-style dates for them to watch in a pay-per-minute format seems like a brilliant idea. But it¿s hard for Adam and Chloe to sell true love when they hate each other more with every passing episode. Soon enough, Adam must decide how far he¿s willing to go ¿ and what he¿s willing to sacrifice ¿ to give the vuvv what they want.

A magical adventure about a boy and his dog-or a dog and her boy-and a forest of wonders hidden in plain sight. Clay has had enough of home life. A global plague has brought the world to a screeching halt, and with only a summer of video-calling friends and bickering with his sisters ahead, he's only too happy to retreat to the woods. From the moment the little dog with the ornate collar appears like a spirit among the trees, Clay sees something otherworldly in her. With this mysterious hound, Elphinore, as guide, he glimpses ancient secrets folded into the forest and wanders paths deep into the unknown. But there are traps and terrors in the woods, too, and if Clay isn't careful, he might lose his way for ever. A heartfelt, original fantasy tale for our times.
