Product details

"Presumably, the individual has always been unimportant. It just went unnoticed." The Brave New World is set to take place in a few years. Perhaps it has already begun. Every day, another Western country becomes autocratic. Algorithms that replace humans hang in the air as a threat. The UK, where capitalism was once invented, has since perfected it. But four children are not playing along – they are playing against the rules. And they do so with full consequence. Welcome to the world of GRM. Sibylle Berg's new novel begins in Rochdale, UK, where neoliberalism has done particularly thorough work. The heroes: four children who know nothing but the reality of a failed state. Their food comes from private charities, and their parents have long since given up. The hope they escape to is Grime, or GRM for short. Grime is the biggest musical revolution since punk. Grime produces new YouTube stars every day and continually offers new role models. When the four realize that there is no hope for them at home, they set off for London. Here, the promise of the future seems to have been fulfilled. Anyone who gets a registration chip implanted receives a wonderful basic income. The population lives in a perfect surveillance dictatorship. On the streets, only the antisocial, outcast scum remain. But the four children – who are hardly children anymore – try to survive outside the system. They start their own kind of revolution.
