Landscape With Invisible Hand: A new take on an alien invastion - Tucker Gergen
Landscape With Invisible Hand follows an artist and his girlfriend in a alien world. In this world it is hard for humans to get jobs because the aliens (vuvv) took all the jobs and the only way to make money is to get close to them. People have to learn a new language and adapt to all these strange technologies. Our main characters find a way to make money by broadcasting their love to the vuvv as a 1950s couple. The vuvv have kids, or spawn as they call them, just come out like a bud on a flower. The reason this matters is as the book describes it, “there is no evolutionary benefit for vuvv to like walks on the beach, unlike for humans.” Love interests them and in fact it seems the vuvv as fascinated in people with out caring about them. This book does well as a commentary and great for the creative and imaginative mind. For example it says the vuvv are squares that walk on all fours. You may have a completely different idea of what they look like from me....
