The Song of the Earth

Nissenson`s fragmented novel, composed largely of e-mails, interviews, and web sites, takes place in mid-21st-century New York City, where prices are out of control and much of the city is under water. The story revolves around Johnny Baker: born in 2037 and dead 19 years later. Johnny has been genetically engineered to be an artist, and the book is illustrated with his works.
