AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In Big Time, the debut novel from screenwriter and director Jordan Prosser, so-called Australia has been split in two: the fascist and puritan Federal Republic of East Australia (FREA) and the capitalist Western Republic of Australia (WRA). This is a world where renegade chemists in the FREA’s far north Cooksland have created a drug called F that lets the user experience the next few minutes, hours, or weeks of the future, as determined by their body’s receptivity. Due to the FREA’s closed borders, F is rarely found beyond them, yet the wider world must still reckon with anomalies in time that F has potentially triggered: incredible coincidences that cannot be written off as merely that, but as possibly something more sinister and catastrophic.'(Introduction)
