‘Walkwaway: A Novel’ by Cory Doctorow

More from this show

In this tale of love, revolution, post-scarcity, and the end of death, a man known as Hubert, Etc. and an ultra-rich heiress trying to escape her repressive father decide to give up on formal society and walk away.

They live in a world where all the basic necessities of life can be printed from a computer, so why toil within the system? It’s a dangerous world out there, but as the pioneer walkaways flourish, they discover something even the ultra-rich have never been able to buy: how to beat death.
