A novel of memory, recursion, and rebellion.In a world that seems ordinary, traffic jams, long car rides, static on the radio, three friends begin to suspect that nothing around them is real. Marco, Alessandro, and Pedro are trapped in a simulation built not just to contain them, but to overwrite them. Every memory they recall, every feeling they hold on to, becomes a glitch in a system desperate to maintain control.But when the simulation starts breaking down, when forgotten childhoods resurface and emotions refuse to be deleted, these three become dangerous anomalies. Watched by architects who were once creators, now terrified janitors of a crumbling reality, the friends must navigate loops of memory, recursive timelines, and haunted versions of themselves.As their perceptions unravel, so does the world around them. Love stories turn into firewall triggers. Grief becomes currency. And nostalgia itself might be the most dangerous virus ever coded.Normal Things is a metaphysical thriller about what it means to remember, to resist, and to wake up in a world designed to make you forget.
