Plastic Soul

By James Nulick

From Anxiety Press

The year is 2043. Wealthy elites are paying vast sums to have clones made of themselves, and Chrysalis Institute is happy to meet the demand. But if a companion isn't what you seek, the Institute offers other boutique services to help the old look young again, for a price...

Propelled by James Nulick's lyrically innovative approach to slipstream fiction, PLASTIC SOUL presents an incisive yet darkly comic vision of an irreversibly digitized future in which meaning has been traded for vanity. It is a future not far adrift from the world we currently inhabit-a future that haunts our present.

"Enthralling and existential, Plastic Soul is Poor Things with Nabokov's magniloquence and Plath's poetic woe. A novel is rarely as immersive as this one."
-Danielle Chelosky

"Plastic Soul will make your fleshy body shiver with emotion. James Nulick looks toward an absurd future via measured prose that harkens back to classic tales of isolation, yearning, and angst."
-Brittany Menjivar
