The New World - Paperback
by Chris Adrian (Author), Eli Horowitz (Author)
The New World presents an innovative story of love, decapitation, cryogenics, and memory by two of our most creative literary minds.
Jorie has just received some terrible news. A phone full of missed calls and sympathetic text messages seems to indicate that her husband, Jim, a chaplain at the hospital where she works as a surgeon, is dead. Only, not quite--rather, his head has been removed from his body and cryogenically frozen. Jim awakes to find himself in an altogether unique situation, to say the least: his body gone but his consciousness alive, his only companion a mysterious disembodied voice.
