Summary "SEARCH HISTORY OSCILLATES BETWEEN A WILD CYBERDOG CHASE AND LUNCH-DATE MONOLOGUES AS EUGENE LIM DECONSTRUCTS GRIEVING AND STORYTELLING WITH UNCANNY JUXTAPOSITIONS AND SUBVERSIVE SATIRE. Frank Exit is dead-or is he? While eavesdropping on two women discussing a dog-sitting gig over lunch, a bereft friend comes to a shocking realization: Frank has been reincarnated as a dog! This epiphany launches a series of adventures-interlaced with digressions about AI-generated fiction, virtual reality, Asian American identity in the arts, and lost parents-as an unlikely cast of accomplices and enemies pursues the mysterious canine. In elliptical, propulsive prose, Search History plumbs the depths of personal and collective consciousness, questioning what we consume, how we grieve, and the stories we tell ourselves"-- Provided by publisher.
