Think for just a moment the kind of joy and the kind of horror something like that would create. It then introduces one small thing - one little change, one product, one tweaked application of a totally familiar technology - and tracks the ripples of chaos that it creates. 'Little Eyes supposes a world that is our world, 5 minutes from now.
*Little Eyes comes with two different covers, and the cover you receive will be chosen at random* This is our present and we’re living it – we just don’t know it yet. But beneath the cuddly exterior, kentukis conceal a truth that is unsettlingly familiar and exhilaratingly real. Samanta Schweblin’s wildly imaginative new novel pulls us into a dark and complex world of unexpected love, playful encounters and marvellous adventures. Anonymous and untraceable, these seemingly cute cuddly toys reveal the beauty of connection between far-flung souls – but they also expose the ugly truth of our interconnected society. They’ve infiltrated apartments in Hong Kong, shops in Vancouver, the streets of Sierra Leone, town squares of Oaxaca, schools in Tel Aviv, bedrooms in Indiana. These are kentukis, and they are in your home.
