ANACHROME:
Genre: Contemporary Literature, Experimental Fiction, Science-based Writing, Feminist Futurist Metafiction, Illustrated Quantum Fiction.
Plot Summary:
Anachrome is a portmanteau, combining anachronistic and chromosomic, underscoring the book’s theme, which largely (and anecdotally) articulates the “Anachronistic Chromosomic Fallout” of the relationship between the XX and XY chromosome. Anachrome also refers to the name of the protagonist, a prototypical Manhattanite named Ana (or, even, Ana Chrome) as she navigates the dating scene near the year 2020. In a writing style aspiring to be as concise as it is non-linear, Anachrome's storyline includes cameos by Oprah, Gwyneth Paltrow, Elliott Smith, Jeff Bezos, plus organizations from DARPA to the NIH, internet-famed Lifestylists and the intellectual proffering of Siri and Google Adwords. Despite its referential weight, Anachrome remains palpably readable through unabashedly honest, feminist-centric sex scenes, revealing the influence of social constraints on (not only the mind) but the gut microbiome. Attempting to figure out what to “do about love” and the classic inclination towards partnership midst man’s evolving bionic romance with metals, the writing traverses through untypical vernacular to land on the epiphany of pleasure, in something like an ending of a Hero(ine’s) Journey.
