Description:

E-book exclusive special feature: This PerfectBound e-book contains "Virtualism," an essay on consumerism in a wired time - written especially by the author to help to encourage you to buy this e-book.

Every product has this paradoxical essence. Two opposing desires it can promise to satisfy simultaneously. The job of a marketer is to cultivate this schismatic core, this broken soul, at the center of every product.

The Savage Girl is a razor-sharp and mesmerizing first novel, a satire that cracks the whip on the zeitgeist and takes a wicked look at the dark side of contemporary consumer culture.
