A genre-bending, literary eco-thriller, Living Things follows four recent graduates whose summer plans to work abroad take a sinister turn. Living Things follows four recent graduates - Munir, G, Ernesto and Alex - who travel from Madrid to the south of France to work the grape harvest. Except things don't go as planned: they end up working on an industrial chicken farm and living on a campsite, where a general sense of menace takes hold. What follows is a compelling and incisive examination of precarious employment, capitalism, immigration and the mass production of living things, all interwoven with the protagonist's thoughts on literature and the nature of storytelling.
