Buchpremiere: Thea Mantwill mit "Glühfarbe"

The nameless protagonist of this near-future novel lives with her partner Buster in an old factory building. While Buster earns good money as a dancer and moves further and further away from her, the protagonist escapes into the metaverse out of boredom and frustration. As a virtual icon, she quickly gains more and more followers and also earns money in real life. But then she makes a discovery that completely changes her life once again.
