For top chef Hardy Arar, his whole life is food. What is he to do when technology eliminates the need for it? TGB (total gastric bypass) is a giant leap forward for humans longing to transcend their flesh. It has fulfilled the desire of the rich to escape illness, boring sustenance routines, and disgusting bodily processes. But like all technological change, TGB unleashes a cascade of effects, social, political, and economic, effects drastically changing the lives of the characters in NoFood . For what is lost with the elimination of the drive to eat? Reviews In NoFood , Sarah Tolmie (whose first novel The Stone Boatmen was one of 2014’s most promising debuts) transforms a sardonic novella into something more than an extended joke by making it a story suite: exploring an outrageous fad that captivates the super-rich, some decades in the future, from multiple viewpoints in six connected tales. Faren Miller, Locus Magazine "Structurally speaking, this book is brilliant. The stories are interlinked, yet they build on each other in unusual ways. Tolmie makes use of the breaks, the ruptures between one story and the next. Each story disrupts the expectations that the previous one has set. The relationships between characters change in surprising and poignant ways. The perspective and point of view shifts radically, sometimes detaching entirely from the main narrative thread, yet always adding depth." Molly Katz, Strange Horizons Sarah Tolmie's first novel, The Stone Boatmen , was published by Aqueduct Press in 2014. A collection of her sonnets is forthcoming from Baseline Press in London.
