Ripe
By Sarah Rose Etter

Nearly a year into a high stress job in Silicon Valley, thirty-three year old Cassie finds herself constantly surrounded by Believers, or the Ivy Leaguers who throw everything of themselves into tech.

With the threat of a virus looming over the city, Cassie is suffocated by the wage disparity in San Francisco and her ever mounting responsibilities for VOYAGER, a tech giant.

Followed constantly by a black hole that threatens to swallow her whole, Cassie beats the relentless existential dread by deploying her “fake self” fueled on cocaine and cold brews.

A modern gothic masterpiece for those exhausted by the hustle.
