Neil Young klar med sin scifi-roman Canary

Den gamle rockern Neil Young uppger att han nu har skrivit klart scifi-romanen "Canary", en bok som han har arbetat i fyra år med att färdigställa. På sin webbplats skriver han att han precis lämnat in manuskriptet till boken till sin förläggare. 2018 beskrev Young handlingen i "Canary" för Rolling Stone:

"It’s kind of a sci-fi thing about a guy who gets busted for a crime. He works for a power company and there’s corruption in the power company and he wants to expose it, so he figures out a way to expose it and shuts down the grid a couple of times. He gets busted for doing that, and the cops come and take him out of his office, put him in a van, drug him, and he goes to a hospital somewhere. Then he wakes up and he’s on a mission to pay his debt to society. That’s all he cares about. Then he puts on these glasses, and they broadcast everything that he sees and he goes into different places and interacts with the people there and he’s just a regular guy, but these people in this room downtown are watching everything he’s doing and listening to everything. He discovers the solar company he works for is a hoax. And they’re not really using solar. They’re using this shit – the guy who’s doing this has come up with a way to make bad fuel, the bad energy, this really ugly terrible stuff, and he’s figured out a way to genetically create these animals that shit that gives the energy to make the [fuel]. So he’s created this new species. But the species escapes. So it’s a fuckin’ mess."

Det verkar med andra ord som om Neil Youngs scifi-bok kanske inte blir helt olik ett sammanfattning av tv-serien Rick and Morty. När eller om "Canary" kommer att dyka upp i bokhandeln framgår inte.
