Channel Sk1n

By Jeff Noon

Welcome to the new interface.

Channel SK1N tells the story of Nola Blue: pop prodigy, the girl every teen wants to be, or be with. She has talent, hit tunes, international fame, everything she could possibly want. But when she begins to pick up TV signals on her skin, Nola is forced on a journey far beyond the boundaries of the mega-stardom she was moulded for.

'One of his best and most emotionally affecting works to date...Reminding us once again that Noon is one of sci-fi’s leading prose artists, who can captivate you with a simple but elegant turn of phrase – Channel SK1N is a masterful return to the fore.'
_Stephen Jewell, SFX Magazine

'A stylish post-modern gospel.'
_Jared Shurin, Pornokitsch

Reviews for Channel Sk1n

[katesherrod · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

A strange and subtle prose-poem about shattered attention spans, hypermediation, and the most likely form in which any actual transhumanism might take. May produce sensations of tickling. Watch your abdomens, and remember that we don't need anything so clumsily obvious as videotape slots anymore.
