OLDER FICTION
Smith, Andrew

Rabbit & Robot

(2) YA In a gonzo, sardonic version of future America, humans are practically obsolete and uber-realistic robots called cogs do almost all the work. When sixteen-year-old narrator Cager and his best friend, both heirs to cog fortunes, hijack a super-luxurious spaceship, the passengers--cog, alien, and human--make Cager question everything he knows about being human. Smith's ambitious world-building features extended metaphorical riffs on consumerism, class, social-media outrage, sexual harassment, and violence.
