Opis

What does it mean to be human? imagine you're in a tragic accident. You expect to die Instead, you awaken in a body that is not yours. Not even your own species. Not even your own gender. In a desperate attempt to save your life your brain has been transplanted into the only body available, the body of a genetically engineered slave. Everyone is quick to assure you that you are still "legally human," but you know that when any stranger sees you they see property or perhaps a Frankenstenian abomination. It is a transformation that causes Todd Herschel to reevaluate his sense of self, his gender identity, her sexual orientation, and how humanity relates to its biological creations. If your brain is in a new body, whose soul do you have?
