Produktbeschreibung
The Feed is accessible everywhere, by everyone, at any time. It links us instantaneously to all information and global events as they break. Every interaction, every emotion, every image can be shared through it; it is the essential tool everyone relies on to know and understand the thoughts and feelings of partners, parents, friends, children, colleagues, bosses, employees . . . in fact, of anyone and everyone else in the world. Tom and Kate use the Feed, but Tom has resisted its addiction. After all, his father created it. But that opposition to constant connection serves Tom and Kate well when the Feed goes black after a horrific tragedy. The Feed's collapse shatters modern society, leaving people scavenging to survive. Finding food is truly a matter of life and death. Minor ailments, previously treatable, now kill. And while the loss of the Feed has demolished the trappings of the modern world, it has also eroded trust. In a world where survival of the fittest is a way of life, there is no one to depend upon except yourself . . . and maybe even that is no longer true.
Autorenporträt
Nick Clark Windo studied English literature at Cambridge and acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and he now works as a film producer and communications coach. The Feed, his first thriller, was inspired by his realization that people are becoming increasingly disconnected from one another, as well as by philosophical questions about identity and memory. He lives in London with his wife and daughter.
