En savoir plus sur le livre
In a world devoid of wars, conflict, and climate change, life is stripped of modern distractions like the internet, cell phones, and processed food. People no longer compare themselves to strangers online or live through screens. Instead, they wake up, go to work, and spend long hours indoors, engaged in meaningless strategy meetings about hashtags. After work, they drown their dissatisfaction in expensive drinks, often leading to regrettable encounters. The cycle continues as they scroll through social media, feeling inadequate compared to others’ seemingly perfect lives. Then, an opportunity arises: Life on Nyx, a program offering 100 individuals the chance to leave Earth behind and start anew on another planet, free from the burdens of modern life. However, this escape comes with a significant caveat: once you leave, there’s no turning back. Yet, the allure of a life filled with meaning and purpose, away from Instagram and online dating, is tempting. What would you sacrifice for a chance at something extraordinary? This immersive, poignant coming-of-age story invites readers to reflect on the essence of life and the choices we make.
