Brand New World

So I'm going to save the world after all. Strange and yet all too familiar this Brand New World of ours. History has been twisted. Just a little. Just enough. Here we meet ugly duckling Dior Darling who uncovers a plot to do away with mankind effectively. Travelling around the world in search of clues she gets entangled in world espionage a love affair that isn't survives an invasion of Aliens and uncovers a truth she wishes she hadn't. A truth that will forever change life as we know it. Destruction creation and personal development are at the heart of this novel in the eerily estranging way that defines the best science fiction : This world is not ours but it never ceases to remind us of the fact that it could easily be. Brand New World is slightly absurd witty - yet another example of Anna's enthralling style of writing that is very often a delicate lace of words inducing shivers of aesthetic joy and recognition.
