London, 1984. Julia Unwhite works as a mechanic/author in the fiction department of the ministry of truth. Day after day, she operates machines that produce trashy novels to entertain the masses. On the surface, she is a model worker and citizen, but she exploits this good girl image to bend the rules and hang out at proletarian bars with her sweetheart Jim. One cold spring day, Julia is summoned by her supervisor at Minitrue and enlisted to work for the mysterious 'project E-999.' As the summer unfolds, she begins to have vivid dreams that take her to a parallel world of day-glow, glitter, and boom boxes.Part parody of 1984, part elegy for the sparkling 1980s, part satire of contemporary academic and corporate bureaucracy, this novel will make you laugh, cry, fear, and hope that love is possible in spite of everything.
