Acerca de este título
There came a day when the boomers stopped dying. Early warnings went unheeded. Long-term care facilities filled to overflowing. Funeral homes and cemeteries began to close. Social Security imploded. Now, in 2049, the “longevity plague” has engulfed the world. There are half a billion super-centenarians worldwide who should be dead but live on. They’re called Lingerers, or the Undead, or Lifers.
Amid the tumult, three extraordinary women—an ex-CIA microbiologist, a Washington lobbyist turned advocate for gray rights, and a philosopher of death and dying—navigate violent ageism, the politics of scarcity, love rivalries, and dreams of a super-centenarian utopia in a transgenerational struggle to redefine what it means to be mortal.
Electric with compelling action and trenchant social commentary and perfect for fans of Nikki Erlick’s The Measure, this genre-straddling work of speculative fiction examines ageism from a new and haunting perspective.
