{"product_id":"b0gm2wz6t5","title":"Gigs","description":"\u003cp\u003eA.I. took the work. Gigs replaced jobs. Ordinary people are left to scrape together lives in a world that's no longer built for them. These are their stories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn a frighteningly near future where Basic Income is supplemented by gig work assigned by “the app”…an octogenarian punk and a lonely young worker seek escape through music. A street artist makes art by night and paints over it by day. A has-been detective chases a case into a forgotten world. A drug runner makes a long, strange delivery. A writer marks her days on a decaying space station she can’t leave. And a refugee asks for help in the last free place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a hard-won blend of biting satire and humanistic passion, two creators from the North of England weave together six divergent chapters into an extraordinary graphic novel.  Gigs  is both a powerful warning about the oppressive world to come and a defiant celebration of the humanity that will sprout up in the cracks.\u003cbr\u003e\n“A sharp, funny look at where the future’s heading and what we can do about it. Emotive, thought-provoking, beautifully drawn and written with wit, this is the sort of science-fiction we need more of.”\u003cbr\u003e\n— Adrian Tchaikovsky\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor of the Hugo Award–winning Children of Time series.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":52834317304024,"sku":"YSL55399","price":7.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0835\/3356\/2072\/files\/81gOuGETGaL._SY1500.jpg?v=1793258732","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmebay.com\/products\/b0gm2wz6t5","provider":"BookMebay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
