Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. It is the late twenty-first century, and Momo is the most celebrated dermal care technician in all of T City. Humanity has migrated to domes at the bottom of the sea to escape devastating climate change. The world is dominated by powerful media conglomerates and runs on exploited cyborg labor. Momo prefers to keep to herself, and anyway she's too busy for other relationships: her clients include some of the city's best-known media personalities. But after meeting her estranged mother, she begins to explore her true identity, a journey that leads to questioning the bounds of gender, memory, self, and reality.First published in Taiwan in 1995, The Membranes is a classic of queer speculative fiction in Chinese. Chi Ta-wei weaves dystopian tropes-heirloom animals, radiation-proof combat drones, sinister surveillance technologies-into a sensitive portrait of one young woman's quest for self-understanding. Predicting everything from fitness tracking to social media saturation, this visionary and sublime novel stands out for its queer and trans themes. The Membranes reveals the diversity and originality of contemporary speculative fiction in Chinese, exploring gender and sexuality, technological domination, and regimes of capital, all while applying an unflinching self-reflexivity to the reader's own role. Ari Larissa Heinrich's translation brings Chi's hybrid punk sensibility to all readers interested in books that test the limits of where speculative fiction can go. First published in Taiwan in 1995, The Membranes is a classic of queer speculative fiction in Chinese. Chi Ta-wei weaves dystopian tropesheirloom animals, radiation-proof combat drones, sinister surveillance technologiesinto a sensitive portrait of one young womans quest for self-understanding.

Aggiungi al carrelloRustica (tapa blanda). Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Nuevo. 01. En un futuro distópico a finales del siglo xxi, la humanidad se ha visto obligada a migrar al fondo de los océanos como consecuencia de un modelo de explotación insostenible. Mientras tanto, en la superficie arrasada de la Tierra, lxs cíborgs mantienen la maquinaria productiva y bélica en un mundo controlado por grandes corporaciones tecnológicas. Momo, la esteticista más solicitada de Ciudad T, permanece prácticamente ajena a este ecosistema, preocupada solo por perfeccionar su técnica dermatológica para huir de la sombra materna. Sin embargo, el reencuentro con su madre la llevará a cuestionar su identidad y hasta los propios límites del género, la memoria y la realidad. Casi tres décadas después de ver la luz en Taiwán, en Membranas, traducida por primera vez al español, sorprenden sus lúcidos presagios de un futuro dominado por el cambio climático, la colonización, las guerras y las migraciones. Por sus páginas desfilan temas como las pandemias víricas, el poder de la tecnología, la soledad en tiempos de hiperconexión, la maternidad o las identidades trans. Con un estilo casi cinematog. LIBRO.
