Antiviral

Brandon Cronenberg

A dystopian world in which celebrity obsession has become a religion. A 24-hour TV channel constantly feeds its viewers with intimate information about current starlets. Fans have never been so close to their darlings. If you have the money, a special clinic will infect you with the same virus your idol has. A connection on a biological level. Syd March is an employee of The Lucas Clinic, which sells live viruses and pathogens extracted from infected celebrities. He also has a side job—he smuggles illegal samples of viruses in his own body and supplies them to pirate groups. In one such transmission, he gets infected with an unknown, deadly virus.
