Can you be sure that your life belongs to you? In this novel, Santiago Roncagliolo combines the psychological thriller with science fiction, immersing us in the story of Max, a lonely employee of the Gemini Corporation. Max is in Tokyo for a convention on artificial intelligence, but the labyrinthine city and the confusing reality he experiences lead him to seek meaning in his life. Amid suspicious colleagues, a distant wife, and the effects of jet lag, he meets Mai, an enigmatic waitress who becomes his only confidant. A story where affections, sex, and friendship mark characters who struggle to communicate in a world of high technology, in a mysterious scenario where the impossible and the tangible intertwine.
