Wonderkin

Colin Winnette is the author of several books, including Pen/Faulkner Finalist Users and Dazed and Confused, a minute-by-minute analysis of the acclaimed Richard Linklater film. He was the winner of Les Figues' NOS Book Contest, and his work has been recognized by The Believer Book Award, CSU Poetry Center's First Book Award, the Wabash Fiction Prize, and the Donald Barthelme Prize for Short Fiction. He is originally from Denton, Texas and currently lives in San Francisco.

As suspenseful, gripping, and immersive as it is humane and compassionate, Wonderkin is a powerful novel of fatherhood for our near-dystopian era of AI agents and hyperreality. Readers will fall in love with Charles and his sons as they navigate the hazy boundaries between the human and the machine, searching for new forms of connection in a perilous, alienating world. A stunning work of imagination
