Fiction. A dystopic novel including a trio of rebellious teenage girls, a wired and paranoid commander, a faithful lieutenant protecting her commander, a babbling genius whose photographic memory has gone awry, and sundry villains and heroes. Meads examines this not-so-distant future not to entertain us with techno-gadgetry, but to reflect on our own time and find that general emotional confusion remains the human constant, no matter what the situation, no matter how much--or how little--information inserts itself.
Kat Meads was raised in South Carolina and now works in California. She has had two books of poetry published, plus two plays produced. This is her first story collection.
