National Book Award winner M. T. Anderson returns to future Earth in a sharply wrought satire of art and truth in the midst of colonization.

When the vuvv first landed, it came as a surprise to aspiring artist Adam and the rest of planet Earth but not necessarily an unwelcome one. Can it really be called an invasion when the vuvv generously offered free advanced technology and cures for every illness imaginable? As it turns out, yes. With his parents jobs replaced by alien tech and no money for food, clean water, or the vuvvs miraculous medicine,

Adam and his girlfriend, Chloe, have to get creative to survive. And since the vuvv crave anything they deem "classic" Earth culture (doo-wop music, still-life paintings of fruit, true love), recording 1950s-style dates for the vuvv to watch in a pay-per-minute format seems like a brilliant idea. But its hard for Adam and Chloe to sell true love when they hate each other more with every passing episode. Soon enough, Adam must decide how far hes willing to go and what hes willing to sacrifice to give the vuvv what they want.

Fans of M. T. Anderson will delight in this book, his first return to Future Earth since Feed. Landscape with Invisible Hand is the perfect novella-length satire for young adults and adults alike.

Deftly woven themes of truth, art, romance, commerce, and colonization are explored by M. T. Anderson in this soon-to-be literary classic.
