<p><em>Living</em> <em>Things</em> follows four recent graduates ¿ Munir, G, Ernesto and ¿lex ¿ who travel from Madrid to the south of France to work the grape harvest. Except things don¿t go as planned: they end up working on an industrial chicken farm and living on a campsite, where a general sense of menace takes hold. What follows is a compelling and incisive examination of precarious employment, capitalism, immigration and the mass production of <em>living</em> <em>things</em>, all interwoven with the protagonist¿s thoughts on literature and the nature of storytelling. A genre-bending and dystopian eco-thriller, <em>Living</em> <em>Things</em> is a punk-like blend of Roberto Bola¿o¿s <em>The Savage Detectives</em> and Samanta Schweblin¿s <em>Fever Dream</em>, heralding an exciting new voice in international fiction. </p>
