The Stray Jason M Ford

In a post-A. I America, all of the world's problems can be solved with the invention of cars that run on carbon, effortless communication with tech interfacing implants, and even machines that design themselves. None of this helps Ethan, who can remember a time before these improvements to society. His daily life at the Water Recycling Plant is nothing more than a monotonous grind: wake up, clock-in, clock-out, sleep, repeat. He continually struggles to find meaning in an increasingly efficient and digital society. All this changes after Ethan is selected for a sleep study, as old feelings and emotions start to flow back into him again. Ethan will have to decide if her past is worth his future.
