Circulation: 200 copies. P-HPC is the love story of Uto and Sarah, two young people who are just about to finish high school. Sarah mysteriously disappears and Uto discovers that she has decided to leave school to be admitted to the Post-Human Processing Center, a paramedical institute where young people go to be transformed into industrial robots so that then they’ll be guaranteed a safe job. A journey through the memories of two nineteen year olds who have to decide what they want to do with their lives and their futures. Following “Pinocchio: the Story of a Child”, the eclectic and courageous author, Ausonia, continues to use his visionary prowess to explore the territory of the deconstruction of adolescence, in which everything beautiful, every dream and every hope are sacrificed for the common good, in the collective grimness of adults. A wonderful and experimental book which confirms Ausonia’s status as one of the best new Italian authors. |
