A Perfect life

"Jimmy Clark is the poster child for the World Government's promise to provide everyone with a perfect life. In this satire of a dystopian future the 300 highest-earning global corporations control the World Government. Data on everyone, collected by AlwaysWatch's cameras is against World Government law. Jimmy's early life is managed by Radiant Technologies and Biostream--mega-global-corporations that analyze Big Data to engineer the perfect life. Removed from his parents at birth, Jimmy is assigned to a robot guardian Sally, who becomes his lifetime companion sometimes sharing his bed. Shaped by the 'right' schools for the perfect job in his perfect life, Jimmy is pushed into the Zeus Fund. There, at the altar of the Temple of Mammon, he unwittingly completes the Internet of Things, linking all data with global corporations and government agencies. As this dark, ironic spoof unfolds, Jimmy's perfect life cracks apart. Truths begin to surface. The love of his life--a privileged, spoiled, anti-World Government activist--is killed. Stimulating consumerism with drugs, fantasies and enticing scents, the World Government's Office of Shoppiness causes mass riots and shopping mall burnings. Seizing this opportunity for a windfall, SleepWell, DieWell and GoCancer flood the devices of the dying with ads suggesting 'Isn't it time to rest and sleep?' "--Book cover
