“Haunting and deeply introspective. . . . Greene crafts a stunning narrative that is as emotionally resonant as it is thought-provoking…”— Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Young Literati invites you to step into the pages of a haunting new tale with Jayson Greene, author of Once More We Saw Stars, as he unveils his latest work, UnWorld, a gripping novel set in the near-future where the boundaries between human and AI blur. Following the intertwined and colliding lives of four people in the wake of a mysterious tragedy, Greene challenges our understanding of consciousness and humanity.
Don’t miss this opportunity to enjoy savory bites and a delicious drink while listening to Greene, in conversation with Max Anderson, as Anna, Cathy, Sam, and Aviva’s stories hurtle toward each other. Prepare to leave asking: What happens to the soul when it is splintered by grief? Where does love reside except in memory? What does it mean to be conscious, to be human, to be alive?
