A Wrinkle in Time meets Brave New World in this thought-provoking debut graphic novel about one girl's quest to save her family's livelihood--and maybe existence itself.
Chloe and her older sister make souls by hand in an empty old house in the countryside. When their supply of breth--the raw material needed to make souls--runs dry, the evil McCorp tries to force them to franchise and make synthetic souls instead. Chloe sets out to the big city in hopes of finding a new source. And maybe a way to modernize their business that Lacey is so determined to keep in the past.
On a journey to find a real breth crop, untouched by MCorp's greedy hands, Chloe uncovers long-buried family secrets--and starts to question whom to trust and what reality even is.
A beautifully rendered debut, Soul Machine is at once a metaphysical science-fiction story and a nuanced exploration of big ideas: spirituality, family, consciousness, and connection, but also unscrupulous consumption, megacorporations, and how egomaniac entrepreneurs impact our lives.
