About this listen

 "This satire offers a thought-provoking and scathing indictment that may prod readers to examine the more sinister possibilities of corporate- and media-dominated culture." —Publishers Weekly(starred review)

For Titus and his friends, it started out like any ordinary trip to the moon — a chance to party during spring break and play with some stupid low-grav at the Ricochet Lounge. But that was before the crazy hacker caused all their feeds to malfunction, sending them to the hospital to lie around with nothing inside their heads for days. And it was before Titus met Violet, a beautiful, brainy teenage girl who has decided to fight the feed and its omnipresent ability to categorize human thoughts and desires. Following in the footsteps of George Orwell, Anthony Burgess, and Kurt Vonnegut Jr., M. T. Anderson has created a not-so-brave new world — and a smart, savage satire that has captivated readers with its view of an imagined future that veers unnervingly close to the here and now.©2002 M.T. Anderson; (P)2003 Random House, Inc., Listening Library, An Imprint Of Random House Audio Publishing Group Coming of Age Difficult Situations Dystopian Family & Relationships Fiction Friendship Literature & Fiction Science Fiction Science Fiction & Fantasy Fantasy Witty Comedy

Particularly good as a voiced book given the subject matter. Worth encouraging teenagers to listen to, particularly those whose world is lived online.

Thought provoking

Don’t be put off by the surfer dude voice - it grows on you and works well with the story. The narration is excellent in this regard.

A great story, a great read and a smart premise. I finished the book feeling very sad, but don’t let that take anything away from the great read which it is.

Smart, funny but so sad

Feed is a great story, and the world is eerily close to our own. This could be the story of my grandchildren....

Production values are high and the narrator is very good. The slang language is easy to grasp - much friendlier than Nadsat.

My only crit is that we don't find get a resolution as such. I'd love a sequel.

Great, and frightening, premise....

Read this book purely from a review describing it as ‘the internet in your head’, and i was not disappointed. The way this audiobook is composed gives you a realistic insight of what the author was trying to achieve and the world they had created. I would recommend purely based on how eerily accurate modern-society is depicted, considering it was wrote in the early 2000’s.

makes me question how much time i spend on my phone
