zero one, zero two - Amanda Baker - Bog

For Rachel Smith and her four companions, hope for earth is in the distant past along with cannibalism, land collapses and real human interaction. 200 years old, she exists in the mess created by 20th and 21st century. Flung out into space at the mercy of technology she does not understand, with memories and ghosts for company, Rachel faces the unknowable unknown alone. Just like TRAPPIST 1, Rachel's destination is merely guessed at using data from super telescopes and mathematical equations. She cannot come home!ZERO ONE ZERO TWO is a spare offering of satirical social comment wrapped in a futuristic dystopian narrative sprinkled with dark, dry humour. The hallucinogenic prose morphs into occasional poetry and back again in lines that are as blurred as the sense of reality and dreamscape. Threaded through a tale of human failings and romantic and platonic love there is a delicate balance of hope and despair, brutality and beauty.
