Opis

A new international corporation called U-Feeling has arrived in the capital, commercialising the ultimate commodity: body swapping. The corporation claims it can dissolve every social divide by allowing people to experience life from inside another body-bringing humanity closer to universal peace, that old Kantian dream, now finally within reach. The war between the sexes? Over. Class conflict? Finished. Xenophobia? Obsolete. But when identity becomes interchangeable, where does the self end-and what remains when you return?The U-Feeling Experience is a provocative work of speculative fiction that challenges our assumptions about identity, empathy, and human nature. Rosa Montero calls it "a taut futuristic tale that is at once disturbingly realistic, infused with a psychological unease reminiscent of Edgar Allan Poe."
