Company Man

Martin Seary

Summary

‘Company Man’ is an exciting sci-fi thriller, that explores potent themes of AI, existence itself, and unrestrained corporate power, with a human story at its core, that of a family divided by the insidious threads of this deftly built dystopian world. In the world of this remarkable and unforgettable novel, life can now be lived out in a digital realm. You may choose a partner who is pliable, programmable. If you aren’t replaced, you might be hanging on by a thread. Living under the Envirodome, the citizens of Municipalis scurry about like ants. The question is, who has their sullied hands on the magnifying glass? The dying sun may still yet proof sufficient to torch from on high. Abram works for the most powerful company on the planet, they hold the keys to the doors of artificial life. Yet despite this power, their avarice and thirst for control knows no bounds. But surely family is sacred, right? A man of cerebral complexity and talents in manipulation must fight for what he holds dear, but will his own demons get in the way. In a world where existence, experiences and memories are ultimately agnostic, a question pervades throughout - what is it that defines life exactly?

Hogg

Samuel R. Delany

The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
