About This Novel

The story takes place in a dystopian future, where governments and scientists are constantly looking for "innovative" ways to solve a world problem - in this society, everyone has become a little selfish, living an irrelevant life, and no one is raising children anymore. Babies are born sitting alone in those egg-shaped chairs, staring at what is in front of them. In order to improve this isolated society, the government invited a famous scientist and convened a team to come up with a solution. Scientists have created a "little man" as a playmate, and anyone who wants a "miniature playmate" can buy one. The two protagonists, Bang Bang and Jinx, are both products of this project. They are neither humans nor animals. They were born to be quiet and peace-loving little playmates of their owners. Bang Bang and Jinx are part of a new "batch" of miniature people, each generation preaching less trouble, more ambiguous personalities, and more distinct from humans than the last. However, Bang Bang and Jinx still retain some knowledge of human language and emotions, so they must be very careful when communicating with each other and their owner Susan. Because this behavior is illegal, their very existence would be threatened if the authorities became aware of it. They spend their days collecting stones and feathers to decorate their baskets, waiting for their owners to feed them. However, it doesn't take long for them to get sick, fall in love, wonder why they can't eat with a spoon, and realize that they are exactly like their master...
