A fractal fable about the likelihood and vitality of protest as informed by three superheroes on the lunch time break. In a tiny Midwestern town, two Asian American children connection over their outcast position and a shared love of comic catalogs. Meanwhile, in an alternative or perhaps future universe, a team of superheroes ponders society during their time off. Between black-ops missions and rescuing hostages, they swap reports of artistic malaise and muse on the apparently inescapable hold of market economics. Gleefully toying with the conventions of the novel, Dear Cyborgs weaves alongside one another the story of a friendship's dissolution with a provocative and exciting meditation on protest. Through some connected monologues, a amazing cast of personas explores narratives of level of resistance - protest artwork, ecoterrorists, take up squatters, pyromaniacal militants - and the amount to which these can truly withstand the pragmatic demands of modern capitalism. Even while, a incomprehensible cybernetic booklet of clairvoyance beckons, and respected allies begin to disappear. Playfully blending comic-book villains with social critiques, Eugene Lim's Dear Cyborgs is a fleet-footed literary exploration of vitality, friendship, and imagination that recalls writers like Tom McCarthy and Valeria Luiselli. Ambitious and knowing, it braids alongside one another hard-boiled detective pulps, subversive viewpoint, and Hollywood chase moments, unfolding like the composites and revelations of a dream.
