The new novel by the drag queen superstar author.
Centuries after humans and all other life forms went extinct, several exploratory robots begin the process of artificially raising human life on Earth to revitalize the extinct human race.
The John Charles Californian Exploratory Robot, stationed in the Central Valley of California, is first tasked with developing a male human labeled as 'JC_MHlf_01". Jacey-one, the nickname given to that human by his AI mother, would go on to become a mentally and emotionally disturbed teenager, fearing the exploratory robot while feeling as though something fundamental was missing from his existence.
Facing the dreadful nature of his own existence and the morbid coming-of-age he must experience, Jacey-one sets out on an impromptu journey for the sake of answering one question: what was it that his life missed? And, could he miss it despite never having it?
Experience the first and last weeks of Jacey-one's life as told in a surreal, subversive style akin to that of John Boorman's 1974 camp classic, Zardoz.
Note: Aesthetically, this book is better enjoyed in paperback form.
