Hardback. Condición: New. Set in Taiwan and the Silicon Valley, a collection of linked stories that explore the meaning of success and the purpose of existence, centered on the short life and long shadow of an engineering genius who descends deeper into despair while rising higher on the professional ladder.The hard-working geniuses of Spent Bullets are the crème de la crème of the meritocracy. Educated in the best schools in Taiwan, they move to lucrative positions in America's big tech, reaching the pinnacle of career prestige. Yet there is a dark side to their relentless focus and achievements.In an age that idolizes success, Terao Tetsuya's piercing collection explores the grotesque contortions of psyches shaped by hyper-competitive systems, where the measure of one's worth is a capacity for suffering-witnessed through the brief, shining life of Jie-Heng, a prodigy who can solve any logic problem-but not the problem of human relations. Jie-Heng mostly does what is expected of him, even if it means diminishing his individuality. A young man with no center to ground him, he tries to fit in, yet fails to connect because of other people's fear, misunderstanding, resentment, and obsessive adoration.His most vital deviation is a perverse, longstanding relationship with Wu Yi-Hsiang, a tormentor turned lover who offers a thin tether to reality. Wu Yi-Hsiang is fascinated by Jie-Heng's intellect and, with his own anxious need to please, carefully tends to Jie-Heng's desire for debasement. When Jie-Heng's yearning to embrace the void is tragically realized, he leaves behind a host of unanswered questions, complicated feelings, and cohorts who carry his memory like a bullet in a glass case that will never tarnish.A searing look at our time and culture, Terao Tetsuya exposes the absurdity of striving: to make money, to be a better person, to be someone you're not. With cool, calculating precision, he illuminates the promise and peril of gifted young people who patiently bear the burdens of their fate.Translated from Chinese by Kevin Wang.…
