YA
In a future Taipei, those with money, the "you" (defined as "to have"), wear environmental suits manufactured by Jin Corporation to protect them from deadly air pollution; the "mei" ("without") suffer short lives in abject poverty. A group of idealistic mei teens, including protagonist Jason Zhou, infiltrate the you to destroy Jin Corp and the stratified society from within. Searing cultural critique meets unique sci-fi thriller.
