The Director and the Daemon - Paperback

by Pitaya Chin (Author)

A director of a big budget Australian sci-fi TV show grapples with the dilemma of corporate sponsorship, and their infatuation with their beautiful but mercurial lead star, Kit. Meanwhile, a young radical struggles to find themselves as their political movement - and the found family derived from it - implodes around them. The two characters' worlds become increasingly interconnected as they're forced to make big decisions and act in the face of counterinsurgency and social uprising. The Director and the Daemon is a character-driven novel of ideas that is beautiful, funny, provocative and deeply felt.
