Doppelganger
by Sam Riviere
€ 23.75
ISBN: 9781399639415
In a fictional English university town in the near future lies Northwick Author Development Academy, an elite incubator for the creative class.
Its candidates arrive desperate to prove their originality, only to find that their work has converged into something eerily uniform.
As a contagious 'twinning' trend sweeps across the student body, the cohort find themselves trapped in a tightening web of surveillance and mythmaking. Watched constantly by the Academy's hidden media unit, they begin to resemble copies of one another - twinned in fear, ambition, and aesthetic drift.
From award-winning poet Sam Riviere, Doppelganger is fiction at its most clever, most engaging and most self-reflective. Both a scathing critique of contemporary culture and a virtuoso game of cat and mouse, Doppelganger invites its reader on a quest with an uncertain outcome, guided always by Riviere's wit, stylistic brilliance, and matchless mind.
