About This Book

In a future society where consciousness can move between manufactured bodies, a man named Mark engages in a violent encounter that leaves his current body burned and his mind revived among stored spare forms. Racing to attend Jennette's birthday, he must choose from imperfect replacements while navigating social rules about identification, fashion, and bodily duplication. The narrative follows his practical and emotional dilemmas—pride, attraction, and the awkward intimacy of wearing another version of oneself—while probing themes of identity, technological convenience, and the social consequences of interchangeable corporeality.
