Anna Caltabiano Books

Anna Caltabiano is a child of the transnational cyberpunk era. Her writing reflects her concerns for her own generation as it seeks salvation, meaning, and companionship in online communities, with pop culture as its shared language. The author explores what drives economically advantaged youth towards self-harm, seeing it as symbolizing a more universal urge among youth toward self-destruction. Her work delves into how the pressures and banalities of modern adolescence combine, leading to dangerous outbursts designed to stimulate a physical response where an emotional one seems insufficient.
