Summary
Funny, whipsmart, profound and moving, a worthy successor to Ballard or Dick
“What’s it like, not being real?”
In LA, where today’s star is tomorrow’s busboy, discarded “Fictionals”—characters spun into flesh-and-blood by technology—are everywhere. Screenwriter Niles Golan’s therapist is a Fictional.

Niles isn’t completely sure how real he is…
