Helping Hands of the Locust People Gregory T Farnum

The fix is in, the game is rigged, and the script of your life is being massaged by the helping hands of the Locust People even as you read this. Where are they? Everywhere and nowhere, for as Philippe Claudel observed, "Today's monarchs don't have heads, or faces, either. . . Their castles have become databases." Greg Farnum's latest book is an attempt to break out of that digital/neural gulag and stumble, however painfully, into the fabled uncolonized world beyond. Along the way, in language that bounces from plain to scrambled, Farnum initiates revealing and open ended conversations with people, beasts and street signs
