Publisher's Synopsis

"George's Life" is set temporally in the Catalonia of the year 2121, and in an era in which science and technology have evolved at an accelerated pace, to the point that trips to the Moon and Mars have become commonplace, as well as the artificial manufacture of living beings, including synthetic humans.

George is one of these synthetic humans, who emerged three years ago from the Human Biofactory. Despite his young age, his appearance is that of a young man of about 25 years old. With George we will learn to see human reality from another perspective, that of a living being that looks very much like us, but is not, strictly speaking, a human.

George is, then, a mirror in which to look at ourselves, to reflect our greatness and miseries, what makes us valuable and at the same time evil, what we are and what we can become, sometimes exposed with a sense of humor, sometimes with the rawness that life forces us to accept.
