The Tiger Flu by Larissa Lai
Kirilow is a doctor apprentice whose lover Peristrophe is a 'starfish,' a woman who can regenerate her own limbs and organs, which she uses to help her clone sisters whose own organs are failing. But when a denizen from Salt Water City suffering from a mysterious flu comes into their midst, Peristrophe becomes infected and dies, prompting Kirilow to travel to Salt Water City, where the flu is now a pandemic, to find a new starfish who will help save her sisters. Bold, beautiful, and wildly imaginative, The Tiger Flu is at once a female hero's saga, a cyberpunk thriller, and a convention-breaking cautionary tale - a striking metaphor for our complicated times.Larissa Lai is the author of the novels When Fox is a Thousand and Salt Fish Girl (Thomas Allen, 2002), Eggs in the Basement (Nomados, 2009), and sybil unrest (Line Books, 2009) with Rita Wong. Lai grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, after being born in La Jolla, California. What's your name, John?
