Touch Grass

Touch Grass by Georgia Harper is a smart, wry work of speculative fiction that blends near-future satire with a surprisingly tender look at identity and friendship. Charlie makes her living deleting other people’s worst moments from their memories — a neat trick, given she’s spent years trying to bury her own.

Then her consciousness starts popping out of her body, and she becomes the first documented case of a baffling new phenomenon. As disembodiment spreads, the world scrambles to respond: corporations lean in, governments panic, and Charlie can’t tell whether she’s unravelling or finally free. There’s also an immortal sheep, and it’s not a random joke — it’s part of the book’s sly, unsettling logic.

Ideal for readers who like Australian sci-fi, contemporary dystopian novels, and storylines about consent, memory, and the politics of the self. Step into Touch Grass and see what happens when reality’s edits stop making sense.
