A phone full of missed calls and sympathetic text messages seems to indicate that her husband, Jim, a chaplain at the hospital where she works as a surgeon, is dead. Only, not quite--rather, his head has been removed from his body and cryogenically frozen. Jim awakes to find himself in an altogether unique situation, to say the least: his body gone but his consciousness alive, his only companion a mysterious disembodied voice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this surreal and unexpectedly moving work, Chris Adrian and Eli Horowitz spin a tale of loss and adjustment, death and reawakening. Simultaneously fabulist and achingly human, \u003ci\u003eThe New World\u003c\/i\u003e finds Jorie grieving the husband she knew while Jim wrestles with the meaning of life after death. Conceived in collaboration with Atavist Books, \u003ci\u003eThe New World\u003c\/i\u003e investigates the meaning of love and loss in the digital era.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChris Adrian\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Great Night\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Gob's Grief\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Children's Hospital\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eA Better Angel\u003c\/i\u003e.
