دانلود کتاب The First Cyber Death Extravaganza!: A Mock Passion Play

توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب به زبان اصلی :

Tobit Fortran wants to be the first person to die live on the Internet. He's marketed his story, got sponsors, arranged for his body parts to be sold upon death. All he has to do is die. But things don't always go as they're planned. With less than two weeks before his scheduled Internet death, Tobit still has not found a new husband for his wife, sponsors have backed out of their contracts (including a beer company, who feels Tobit's death will associate their beer with death), and he's come to the realization that death is final. And this is just for starters! With only days until his death, Tobit begins an epic journey to discover why his death is so important. Along his journey of discovery, Tobit travels through hell and finds the wonderful afterlife that awaits him. The book is an Internet mythology that is filled with a rush of pop culture illusions, and ultimately the kind of social satire that's howl of rage effectively moralizes in its ironic tone what the world is becoming.
