The result is murder and mayhem in dystopia. Set in 2055, the world is run by robots and virtual data, while the weather is controlled by satellite dishes. Arts and culture are no more than distant memories. People are angry, placated by prescribed visits to rage rooms to vent their boredom, fury, and discontent. Beneath the sunny skies and behind the garbage-free suburban McMansions live deeply disturbed, materialistic families. During his time travels and increasingly desperate attempts to reserve his colossal mistake, Sharps Barkley meets the leader of the Eden Collective, a feminist army determined to save the Earth by removing all artificial intelligence and letting the Earth restore itself--if necessary, at the expense of mankind. The Eden Collective uses data gathered from the rage rooms to analyze and predict the potential and actions needed for the Earth to reset and they need to prove that time travel is an effective tool. If Sharps can go back and save his children, then there is hope for the future. Sharps is the 49th experiment and his success is pivotal. Can love prevail over anger? The Rage Room has a multi-layered plot that is fueled by a feminist-driven courage to take charge and save the world as it exposes the effects of an increasingly digital age on our lives and, ultimately, our humanity."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Fatherhood $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Dystopias $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Time travel $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Dystopias. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00900372 650 7 $a Fatherhood. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00921848 650 7 $a Murder. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029781 650 7 $a Time travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01151176 655 2 $a Fictional Work $0 (DNLM)D022922 655 7 $a Novels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921742 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921637 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romans. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000475 776 08 $i Online version: $a De Nikolits, Lisa. $t Rage room. $d Toronto, Canada : Inanna Publications and Education Inc., 2020 $z 9781771337786 $z 9781771337786 $w (OCoLC)1194586257 830 0 $a Inanna poetry & fiction series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117022330.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=911FDD18664511EDB99D19AA23ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
